Kim Kardashian reveals 'really sad' moment during Pete Davidson relationship

In a bombshell new interview, Kim Kardashian has reflected on her short but saucy romance with comedian Pete Davidson, insisting it had more substance to it than fans knew.

Making an appearance on the much-loved Call Her Daddy podcast this week (15 Oct), the reality TV star claimed her 'current approach to dating' had been affected by her 2022 relationship with the funny-man.

For those in need of a reminder, Kim and Pete struck up a passionate love affair following a joint appearance on Saturday Night Live at the end of 2021, which featured an on-screen kiss that the mother-of-four said 'had a little zing'.

At the time, Kim was still legally married to rapper Kanye West - though, they'd called things off several years prior.

During their relationship, the pair were papped enjoying handsy dates together in Los Angeles, and making red carpet Met Gala appearances - and on a later occasion, Kim got candid about their fiery sex life, famously crediting Pete's generous manhood.

Despite the actor being 13 years Kim's junior, fans had a lot of hope for their romance. By the end of 2022, however, things had fizzled out and the couple announced their break-up.

It wasn't until this week, however, that 44-year-old Kim revealed that the end of her relationship with Pete, 31, was somewhat spurred by the influence of former flame Kanye West, who has since remarried Australian model Bianca Censori.

Appearing on Call Her Daddy, the SKIMS boss described the disgraced musician as her 'vocal ex', recalling a music video Kanye previously directed for his song 'Eazy', which included a clay version of Pete being buried alive by the rap star.

The 'Stronger' hit-maker also rapped the lyrics: "God saved me from that crash, just so I could beat Pete Davidson's ass."

Kim reminisced of the incident: "That made me feel really sad."

She continued of Pete: "That really wasn't fair for him, and I felt so sad and sorry for him and he was such a great man [who] was like, 'I got this, don't worry, it's all good.' Or at least acted that way."

"It just, it must suck to be put in that position. So it's had me put up this guard where I don't want to put anyone in that position."

Kim added: "So it's easier if I just, maybe stay away. But I can't live my life like that either."

Revealing how detrimental Kanye had become with regards to her love life, she told listeners: "It has definitely affected that.

"There [have] been situations where I'll get maybe close to someone, then it's like, 'Wait, wait, wait, wait, I don't really want to deal with your ex. And I don't want to deal [with] if he's gonna say something.'

"It has been a little frustrating but then I get really - my person wouldn't care about that, you know? But it is a big thing and I get it. It's not an easy thing. And I get that."
