“Kim and Pete have decided to just be friends,” a source close to Kardashian shares.

“They have a lot of love and respect for each other, but found that the long distance and their demanding schedules made it really difficult to maintain a relationship.”

Another source also tells us that the duo’s age difference contributed to the decision.

The “Saturday Night Live” alum, 28, has been spending much of his time working on a movie in Australia, while the 41-year-old mom of four has been juggling her businesses and co-parenting with ex-husband Kanye West in Los Angeles.

“The divorce is moving forward, and they are focusing on co-parenting,”

Kardashian and Davidson’s unexpected romance began after her inaugural hosting gig on “SNL” in early October 2021.

Shortly after, the two were seen holding hands on a roller coaster before going on various dates in New York City.

A source told us at the time that the beauty mogul was “intrigued” by the funnyman, but no labels were immediately put on their apparent tryst.

Davidson then traveled to LA to celebrate his 28th birthday with Kardashian and her momager, Kris Jenner. The trio even wore matching SKIMS pajamas, further raising questions about the status of their relationship.

Back in Novemer 2021 ot was confirmed that the two were officially a couple.

However, the SKKN by Kim founder waited until March to post Davidson on her Instagram page. In April, they made their first public appearance at Hulu’s premiere of “The Kardashians.”

Over the course of their relationship, Kardashian and Davidson went on numerous vacations together, most of which were tropical.

Additionally, he bonded with her and West’s kids: North West, 9, Saint West, 6, Chicago West, 4, and Psalm West, 3 — so much so that he got a tattoo on his neck of their initials.

Davidson was even spoken about on Season 1 of “The Kardashians,” during which the beauty guru detailed their bond over skincare and joked about their sex life.

He’ll appear in Season 2 as well. However, at this time, it’s unclear whether the pair’s split will also be featured.
