Pete Davidson labels Kim Kardashian his ‘girlfriend’ for the first time

Pete Davidson casually announced he was in a relationship with Kim Kardashian for the first time as he discussed what he got up to in his spare time

Pete Davidson has publicly called Kim Kardashian his girlfriend for the first time since the pair were romantically linked last year.

The Saturday Night Live comic, 28, was chatting to Kay Adams for an upcoming Super Bowl commercial in which he opened up about his life and casually dropped in his relationship status.

In the video chat, Kay spotted a Kardashian candle behind Pete, who appeared taken aback by his interviewer’s eagle eyes.

He went on to discuss social media and said: “Well, I don’t really have Instagram — I don’t have Instagram or Twitter or any of that stuff. So, most of my daily life is getting into cars and showing up to a set.”

It was then he made the “announcement” as he continued: “Or, if I’m off, I just either hang with my friends or chill with my girlfriend inside. So I don’t do much.”

He noted that despite the extra attention he is receiving from fans following the relationship rumours has had virtually “zero” impact on his life.

Pete added: “Once in a while, someone will scream something at you, or it might be hard to get Dunkin’ Donuts. But other than that, it’s pretty fine. It’s not awful. It could be way worse.”

Pete and his now-confirmed partner Kim, 41, first made the headlines in October following the Keeping Up With The Kardashians star’s guest hosting appearance on SNL.

During an Aladdin skit on the show the pair shared a kiss after Kim had savagely mocked members of her family in her opening words.

The off-screen romance rumours started a month later when the pair were snapped holding hands at an amusement park in California.

The duo were on a day out with Kim’s sister Kourtney Kardashian and her fiance Travis Barker, who Peter knows through mutual friend Machine Gun Kelly.

Ever since they have been regularly snapped in each other’s company, most recently at a dinner party with Jeff Bezos.

The new couple were seen arriving at Jeff’s pad, where they spent several hours in the company of the richest man in the world.

While it’s not known exactly what the pair were discussing with the former Amazon CEO, and whether the hang-out was for business or pleasure, it was another example of how Kim and Pete were becoming more serious.

Last month it was reported that Pete, who lives in Staten Island, had been working in Kim’s native LA so the couple were able to spend as much time together as possible.
