Dec. 14 2021, Published 8:22 a.m. ET
Kim Kardashian is off the market once again after starting something up with Saturday Night Live veteran, Pete Davidson.
After filing to divorce her estranged husband, Kanye West, back in February, the Keeping Up With the Kardashians alum didn't wait long before jumping back into the dating game.
Kim and Pete have been driving fans crazy with their unexpected romance, and while neither star has blatantly admitted it, the new flames have been dropping hints about their newfound relationship in recent months.
Read on to see a definitive timeline of Kim Kardashian's blossoming relationship with Pete Davidson.
Kim Kardashian Hosts SNL
It all started when Kim made her hosting debut on SNL back in October. The SKIMS founder certainly made her mark on the show, as she left the audience roaring with her witty jabs at herself and famous family. However, it was Kim's skit with Pete that left people's jaws on the floor.
Fans were floored after Kim and Pete shared a passionate kiss during an Aladdin themed-skit, where the reality star was dressed up as Princess Jasmine. "Are you finally going to kiss me?" Kim asked in the skit, before the comedian leaned in and planted one on her.
While some couldn't help but notice the chemistry between the pair, Kanye didn't appear to be worried about his ex lip locking with someone else. He claimed at the time that he was "completely fine" with the on-screen kiss and thought it was "really funny."
Another source later spilled that Pete was "supportive" of Kim while she was practicing for her stint as host of the hit show. "He went out of his way to make sure she was comfortable and even took time to privately coach Kim to make sure all her jokes landed," the source added.
A Spooky Date Night At Knott's Scary Farm
Just a few weeks after their kiss on SNL, the duo was spotted together, embracing spooky season at a theme park's annual Halloween event, also known as "Knott's Scary Farm."
Along with her sister Kourtney Kardashian, Travis Barker, and other celebrity attendees, Kim was seen exploring the park's "haunted" mazes. She and Pete were also seen sitting in a cart together on one of the rollercoasters.
As OK! previously reported, a source revealed the questionable couple was by each other's sides during the outing, but there was no obvious signs of PDA.
Kim Visits Pete’s Hometown In Staten Island, NY
In early November, reports began surfacing about the duo's "secret dinner rendezvous" in Staten Island, New York.
According to an insider, the pair was seen entering the backdoor of an Italian place called Campania — which is one of Pete's favorite dinner spots in the area. "Pete arranged a dinner on the rooftop privately," a source spilled at the time. "It was just the two of them."

Pete’s Birthday Bash
While Kim and Pete were spending time in Palm Springs, they reportedly stayed at momager Kris Jenner's lavish home to celebrate The King of Staten Island's 28th birthday. Rapper Flavor Flav was also in attendance for the birthday festivities, as Pete, Kim and Kris all appeared to be wearing matching plaid pajamas from Kim's shapewear line, SKIMS.
Pete’s Rumored Hickey
The chemistry appeared to be off the charts between Pete and Kim when they were spotted together at Giorgio Baldi in Santa Monica, Calif., on November 21. As they were seen "giggling" together while leaving the restaurant, the Suicide Squad actor seemed to have what looked like a hickey planted on his neck.
"The restaurant kind of went silent when they first walked in, but then no one really paid attention to them," a source spilled at the time, adding that the new couple was "cuddled up" and "talking very quietly" for most of the outing.
A Breakfast Date At The Beverly Hills Hotel
On November 28, the blossoming couple was seen having Sunday morning breakfast at the Beverly Hills Hotel.
As OK! previously reported, Dutch tourist Paul Barewijk was visiting the hotel when he noticed the A-list couple sitting next to him, and he couldn't help but take a few photos.
“I asked her for a photo. She said, ‘OK, sure,’ and I asked Pete to take the photo. So he did. We took two photos,” Barewijk revealed, noting he was also able to get a selfie with Pete. “I told him that people in The Netherlands like him because of SNL.”
“It seemed like a true date. No kissing, but they were very close with each other,” he stated, before adding that the pair definitely appeared to be "more than friends."
More Double Dates?
While it's unclear what the next move is for the new couple, a source recently revealed to Life & Style that Kim — who recently filed court documents, requesting to be legally single — and Pete have been loving going on double dates with newly engaged couple Kourtney and Travis.
According to the insider, Pete and Travis "get on like a house on fire," and the foursome "have a blast" whenever they're together. “They’re already planning a fun vacation, too."
