The reality star and mother-of-four has chosen Pete Davidson as her rebound following her divorce from rapper Kanye West. 

The 41-year-old Kim Kardashian’s new relationship with Davidson, 28, was first broken by the New York Post’s Page Six on Thursday. This is her first romantic partner since she filed for divorce from West in February, who has since legally changed his name to Ye. 

The Daily Mail quickly followed with photos of the new couple holding hands near her mother Kris Jenner’s mansion in Palm Spring, where Davidson had traveled to celebrate his birthday. The appearance also promotes Kardashian’s new SKIMS line of pajamas, as both were wearing a set. 

Davidson joined the cast of SNL in 2014 at the age of 20, making him one of the youngest cast members. His dating history includes a number of other celebrities including Ariana Grande. 

Kardashian and Davidson were first seen together in public after Kardashian hosted SNL in October, where the two kissed during a sketch. 

E! News reports that Davidson told her he wanted to date her exclusively, and that Kim felt the same. “She is telling some people they aren’t super serious but she isn’t seeing anyone else,” said a source close to Kardashian. “She’s trying not to make a big deal about it but is super into him.” 

Kardashian was included in Forbes magazine’s list of billionaires for the first time this year, in part due to her businesses KKW Beauty and SKIMS. 

The two live on opposite coasts but are committed to making the relationship work.
