Kim Kardashian and Pete Davidson announced their split this week after less than a year of dating. A source told Page Six that at the heart of the breakup is their age difference.
“Pete is 28 and Kim is 41 — they’re just in very different places at the moment,” the source explained. “Pete is totally spontaneous and impulsive and wants her to fly to New York, or wherever he is at a moment’s notice. But Kim has four kids and it’s not that easy. She has to focus on the kids.”
While Davidson is certainly busy as a working actor and comedian, Kardashian has plenty of responsibilities besides motherhood, including her starring role on Hulu’s The Kardashians and several ventures, including her recently launched SKIMS line. The beauty mogul was “totally exhausted by this relationship and other things going on in her life.”
In addition to her usual responsibilities, there was also a lot of stress coming from her ex-husband, Kanye West. Although he’s been less in the spotlight lately, West has been very public about his disapproval of Kardashian’s new relationship for a while.
The insider said: “When Kim is with someone else, Kanye can cause problems with the kids. He tries to divide and conquer. He can’t help it…Kim is a very dedicated mother, and her children will always come first. She wants and needs harmony at home and in her life.”
The former couple first connected on the set of Saturday Night Live, and even had a skit where they shared an on-stage kiss. Soon after, they started dating and it seemed like things were getting more serious in the last few months. Kardashian recently flew to Australia to visit Davidson while he was filming a new movie. The two have been trying to see each other since they first started seeing each other in October 2021, flying from Los Angeles to New York, but it seems that effort has become too overwhelming.
