PETE Davidson finally broke his silence regarding his newfound romance with Kim Kardashian in an interview on Late Night with Seth Meyers.
The SNL star kept quiet about the speculation while appearing on the sketch comedy show last weekend, but has now claimed the rumors are “true.”
Pete, 27, guest-starred on Late Night with Seth Meyers on Monday night, where he finally addressed the speculation around his romance with Kim Kardashian, 41.
Seth immediately jumped into questioning on the matter once the comedian arrived on set, saying: “I want to address something.
“I feel like I want to confirm if it’s real or a rumor. You’ve been reading a lot about it in the press,” he began, alluding to Pete’s new love interest.
“Yeah you know I’ve been wanting to talk about this because there’s a lot of people I walk by, people are whispering and you know making eyes at me,” the Suicide Squad star replied.
“And you know, but it is true,” Pete exclaimed, before adding: “I do have a show on Tubi coming out.”
The crowd erupted in laughter as Seth Meyers confirmed: “THE Tubi?”
Pete joked: “The Tubi. A lot of people are shocked I could get on a show like Tubi. But it’s a real thing.”
“That’s exciting,” Seth closed, as the two confirmed his new romance in a huge double entendre.
SNL SNUB
The King of Staten Island star’s Late Night conversation followed his SNL appearance over the weekend, where fans were “disappointed” to find that he did not address his blossoming romance.
Pete failed to mention Kim on Saturday, as he didn’t appear on his usual Weekend Update skit.
The comedian portrayed NFL quarterback Aaron Rodgers on the program, as he joked about his vaccination status with co-star Cecily Strong.
However, the comedian made no mention of his friendship with the beauty mogul, as fans took to Twitter to express their disappointment.
One said: “Pete as Aaron Rogers… but more importantly is anyone gonna bring up Kim?! #SNL#SaturdayNightLive.”
A second said: “The fact that SNL didn’t have Pete Davidson on weekend update to talk about Kim proves it’s true.”
A third wrote: “So when in the show is there going to be a Pete and Kim reference on Weekend Update? #snl“
Others speculated how the conversation might have played out, one writing: “Prediction: it’s weekend update. colin brings up the kim k/pete rumors and goes ‘here to share his take on it, it’s pete davidson’ and pete rolls in, as he does, and he’ll laugh while trying to say anything regarding it then go on about something colin doesn’t understand.”
NEW LOVE?
Dating rumors started swirling after Kim and Pete were spotted holding hands at Knott’s Scary Farm in California last weekend before then hanging out in NYC over the past week.
The alleged new couple started spending time together following her hosting appearance on SNL last month.
On Tuesday, the writer took the mother of three to one of his favorite restaurants, Campania, on Staten Island, where the two had a private dinner on the rooftop.
The following night, they met up at the exclusive NYC venue, Zero Bond, where Kim wore a body-hugging velvet dress, accentuating her curves.
Kim filed for divorce from rapper Kanye West in February, though the couple shares four children North, eight, Saint, five, Chicago, three, and Psalm, two.
