Pete Davidson is rolling with the punches in his relationship with Kim Kardashian, saying with a laugh that dating the reality star makes him part of an unofficial club of men who know what it's like to enter the highly watched world of the Kardashian family.
Davidson's remarks offer a humorous take on a romance that drew a great deal of interest while it was in the limelight. While the comedian joked about his experience, he was also complimentary toward Kardashian, clearly distinguishing how he felt about her and the extreme level of attention that comes with being part of her life.
Davidson and Kardashian's romance began in October 2021, after Kardashian hosted Saturday Night Live. Their on-screen chemistry turned into a real-life romance and quickly became a subject of public interest. Davidson and Kardashian dated for some nine months before splitting in August 2022. Their relationship didn't last, but Davidson says he and the two are on good terms years later.
His most recent remarks offer a more playful take on that period, especially the experience of dating someone whose private life is widely scrutinized. Davidson's comments aren't directed at Kardashian herself, but at the strange situation of dating someone who draws such intense interest.
The survivor joke also reflects Davidson's take on the experience. His comments suggest that being in the midst of the Kardashian hype was a big part of the experience, no matter how he feels about her. For fans who watched the couple's relationship play out, it's still a big moment in both of their public lives. Their romance began with a memorable Saturday Night Live sketch in October 2021 and lasted about nine months before ending in August 2022.
Davidson's comments, now that the split is in the past, add a lighter note to the story years later. His admission that he and Kardashian are still on good terms also puts the relationship firmly in the past, while showing that the two can look back on their time together without obvious hostility.
Though a joke, Davidson's survivor comment offers a deeper picture of his experience with Kardashian. He can take the piss out of the storm of attention their relationship got, but he also speaks well of her, giving a window into how he views that very public chapter today.
