PETE Davidson has remained quiet about his blossoming ‘romance’ with Kim Kardashian, ignoring the topic during his performance on Saturday’s show.
The SNL comedian and Keeping Up With the Kardashians star have been spending time together following her hosting appearance last month.
Pete, 27, failed to mention Kim, 41, during the Weekend Update on Saturday, as fans searched for the inside scoop on the potential new relationship.
The producer portrayed Aaron Rodgers on the program, as he joked about vaccination status with Cecily Strong.
However, the comedian made no mention of his newfound friendship with the beauty mogul, as fans took to Twitter to express their disappointment.
“Pete as Aaron Rogers… but more importantly is anyone gonna bring up Kim?! #SNL#SaturdayNightLive,” one urged.
“The fact that SNL didn’t have Pete Davidson on weekend update to talk about Kim proves it’s true,” a second guessed.
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.”
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 last week.
NEW ROMANCE?
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.
One of Kim’s friends told DailyMail.com that the comedian’s been “very aggressive” with her during their time together.
The insider said Pete “grabs her waist, compliments her butt and touches her hair” while out on dates with the Skims founder.
“He is extremely sexual and in her face,” the source added. “He is making it crystal clear he likes her.”
The Saturday Night Live star also reportedly makes sure to sit right next to Kim, in a way that makes sure “no one else can get near her.”
While her pals think Pete is “gross” because of his crude humor and “disheveled” look, they’re just happy Kim “seems to enjoy” spending time with him.
The source added: “He definitely is not being aloof or playing coy, he is just going for it.
“And she seems to be loving the attention. It’s nice to see her happy.”
KANYE’S HOPE
Kim filed for divorce from her husband Kanye in February, but the rapper insisted she’s still his wife and wants them to be together.
While appearing on the Drink Champs podcast on Thursday, the rapper repeatedly called Kim his “wife” as he reflected on their split.
After noting the public keeps saying the pair is “divorced,” Kanye said: “We’re not even divorced.
“This ain’t no joke to me. My kids want their parents to stay together. I want us to be together.”
Kanye then slammed Kim’s publicist for encouraging their split, saying: “I don’t f**k with her.”
