Kim Kardashian’s boyfriend Pete Davidson supported her at the premiere of her new Hulu series The Kardashians on Thursday in LA, arriving together holding hands.

And in a new interview, the mother of four opened up about her romance with the 28-year-old funnyman.

Kim, 41, said their romance came out of the blue, revealing that it was ‘the last thing that I was really planning on, in an interview with Hoda Kotb for her Making Space podcast.

The businesswoman said of her surprising romance with Pete: ‘I think that, you know, sometimes things happen when you just least expect it. It was the last thing that I was really planning on.’

Kim added: ‘And so when it did happen, we were kind of, like, “Oh my God, I wasn’t planning on this. And this isn’t even what I was thinking of.”  And it just makes it that much sweeter and so much more fun.’

The stunning brunette, who filed for divorce from husband Kanye West, 44, in February 2021, said that she ‘definitely took my time’ finding love again.

‘I took, you know, 10 months or something before I dated or talked to anyone. And I just wanted that time to really figure out and go through the motions. “Am I making the right decision? How do I feel about this?”

Kim continued: ‘So once I went through all of the motions, I finally was, like, “OK, guys, I am so ready to meet someone.” And I randomly did.’ 

On her getting their relationship under wraps, the star said: ‘I do think that I am holding, you know, a little bit more close to my heart on certain aspects of my relationship with Pete, and it feels good just to know that, like, we have this connection and we have our little bubble of a relationship world that we live in that, like, not a lot of people know about.’ 

The gorgeous star said that she doesn’t put her guard up when it comes to love, despite her divorce.

‘We all know someone that’s been through a really hard time in relationships and everyone’s been OK and everyone comes out OK. So you just have to, like, let yourself go and open yourself up to receive something and just be a good person and you’ll get that back.’

She recalled a sweet moment that happened with Pete one day prior to the podcast: ‘We were driving in the car yesterday and I just, like, looked at him and I was like, “Thank you.” And he was like, “What?” And I was like, “For running errands with me, like, this is so much fun just to, like, go to a doctor’s appointment or go to the dentist and just, like, run errands. I’m having so much fun.”

Rumors of a possible romance with Pete were first sparked when the two kissed during an early October Saturday Night Live skit as she played Princess Jasmine and he portrayed Aladdin, and while initial reports claimed they are just friends, fans believed something more significant was brewing.

Weeks later, she was spotted at Knott’s Berry Farm in Buena Park, California for the theme park’s annual Halloween event with a group of friends, including Pete, her sister Kourtney and Kourtney’s new fiancé, Travis Barker.

Pete and Kim reportedly enjoyed a private rooftop dinner at Campania in Staten Island in November, followed by a group outing at club Zero Bond the following night. 

Kim and Pete were seen sweetly holding hands in November while celebrating his birthday in Palm Springs, California, as seen in Dailymail.com exclusive photos.  

She went Instagram official with Pete in March, marking the first time she has shared him on her Instagram page. 

Last week, Pete arrived holding hands with Kim to the premiere of her Hulu series The Kardashians in LA. 

It is the first romantic partner for the reality star since she filed for divorce from estranged husband Kanye, 44, in February 2021.

Kanye, who has now legally changed his name to Ye, was briefly linked to model Irina Shayk, Instagram model Vinetria, 22 and actress Julia Fox, 33 and now Kim K clone/Instagram model Chaney Jones, 24.

Kim shares four children North, eight, Saint, six, Chicago, four, and Psalm, two, with Kanye.

Kanye has been taking shots at Pete for months, with his latest being a disturbing depiction of the comedian being buried alive.

In March, an LA judge ruled Kim legally single as they sort out custody; she originally filed for divorce February 2021.

Sooner after, text messages allegedly sent by Pete to Kanye were also leaked, in which the comedian appeared to call Kim ‘the best mother I’ve ever met,’ before taunting her ex with a photo of himself in bed, which he said showed him, ‘In bed with your wife.’
