Pete Davidson experienced a cringe-worthy moment as he reminisced about his fleeting romance with Kim Kardashian during a clumsy interview about his dating escapades with fellow comics Luenell and John Mulaney on Wednesday's episode of "Everybody's Live with John Mulaney."
The actor visibly squirmed in discomfort when quizzed about his knack for attracting "all these bad bitches." Luenell, a guest on the show, playfully pressed, "To me, you're just an average guy. I want to know the mystique. Now, you've had Kim K…"
Davidson, 31, immediately groaned, "Oh god," and covered his face with his hand. Luenell, 66, continued, "[And] several other people, you've got this little supermodel right now," referring to Davidson's whirlwind romance with Elsie Hewett, amidst his role in "Suicide Squad."
She joked, "What I think, for the research and for women across America, I think that you should take me out." Davidson awkwardly laughed and replied, "If that's what it takes to stop this, yeah."
The "King of Staten Island" star and Kardashian, 44, embarked on their relationship in October 2021 shortly after Kardashian hosted "Saturday Night Live" and separated from her ex-husband, Kanye West. During their time together, the reality star expressed her immense happiness and contentment with Davidson, describing it as a "good feeling just to be at peace."
Their nine-month romance came to an end in August 2022. Sources told Page Six at the time that both Davidson and the SKIMS founder knew their relationship wasn't destined to last due to their hectic schedules.
The pair recently reconnected at the "Saturday Night Live" 50th anniversary special in February. A source revealed to Page Six that Davidson "has nothing but love and respect for Kim." "They are on good terms. He hopes everyone can move on," the source said.
Davidson's dating history includes ex-fiancée Ariana Grande, Kate Beckinsale, Margaret Qualley, Kaia Gerber, Phoebe Dynevor, and Emily Ratajkowski. The "SNL" veteran is currently in a committed relationship with Hewett, and insiders claim he's "all in" with the model.
