Pete Davidson defends dating 12 people in 10 years


Pete Davidson doesn’t believe dating 12 people in 10 years is “that crazy.”

The “Saturday Night Live” alum defended his history of romancing famous women including Kim Kardashian, Ariana Grande and Emily Ratajkowski in a new podcast interview, calling backlash of his roster “confusing.”

Davidson, 29, explained on “Real Ones with Jon Bernthal” Thursday, “I’m not on Instagram. I’m not on social media. I’m not, like, flexing, you know what I mean?”

The comedian clarified that he has met all of his partners “at work [and] wasn’t in anyone’s DMs.”

Although he doesn’t consider his relationships “interesting” — he is currently with Chase Sui Wonders — Davidson acknowledged that it’s “all anyone [will] talk about.”

Being trolled for his love life before he left “SNL” in 2022 gave the “Meet Cute” star a “s–tty feeling,” he said.

“They’re making fun of you … and then you gotta walk out and do a sketch next and hit your mark,” recalled Davidson, who felt like an “insecure … loser” and a “small person” at the time.

The “King of Staten Island” co-star’s first relationship in the spotlight was with his fellow “Guy Code” cast member Carly Aquilino in 2014.

After their 2015 split, Davidson moved on with Larry David’s daughter Cazzie David from 2016 to 2018.

The “Bupkis” star subsequently proposed to Ariana Grande in 2018 during their whirlwind five-month relationship.

His and the “POV” singer’s broken engagement was followed by brief romances with Kate Beckinsale, Margaret Qualley, Kaia Gerber and Phoebe Dynevor.

Davidson’s next high-profile relationship was with Kim Kardashian from 2021 to 2022 — and he has been removing tattoos dedicated to the reality star since their breakup.

After a fling with Emily Ratajkowski last year, Davidson and Wonders, 26, sparked romance rumors.

The pair co-starred in “Bodies Bodies Bodies,” which was released in March 2022.
