Pete Davidson praises Kim Kardashian in rare comments about his ex almost four years after split

The king of Staten Island has nothing but good things to say about the queen of the Kardashians.

“Isn’t it crazy Kim’s good at acting?” Pete Davidson, 32, asked Nikki Glaser about his ex-girlfriend, Kim Kardashian, on Friday’s episode of his “The Pete Davidson Show.”

“I remember when we were dating, one day she was just like, ‘I think I’m gonna be an actress.’ And I was just like, ‘F–k yeah!’ And then [she’s] just good at it and I’m like, ‘Get the f–k out of here.’ She’s so good at acting.”

Kardashian made her acting debut on Season 12 of “American Horror Story: Delicate” in 2023.

Then, in 2025, the Skims mogul landed a starring role on Hulu’s “All’s Fair.”

Kardashian is now starring in and producing the upcoming Netflix comedy “The Fifth Wheel,” which also features Glaser.

The comic went on to sing the mom of four’s praises while on Davidson’s show, calling her co-star “so smart.”

“Anything she wants to do, she will do it,” Glaser gushed, “especially if people are like, ‘You can’t do this.’ And for her to go into acting with all the public perception of her anyway, she knew … everyone’s gonna look for her to fail.”

From the Golden Globes host’s point of view, it’s impressive to take on a project where “you know people are gonna try to find your weakness.”

Davidson called the business woman “superhuman.”

The “Bodies Bodies Bodies” actor also confessed that he “learned from” Kardashian that she can do anything she puts her mind to, despite public opinion.

“Like, she don’t [sic] give a f–k. It’s unbelievable,” Davidson mused.

The exes dated for nine months from October 2021 to August 2022 after Kardashian divorced her ex-husband Kanye West.

At the time, the disgraced rapper allegedly spread unfounded rumors that Davidson was gay and had AIDS.

A source close to West, however, denied the claims, calling them “nonsense.”

An insider in Davidson’s camp told Page Six in the moment that the “King of Staten Island” star was “ignoring all of the Kanye hate out of respect for Kim.”

Despite the public drama, a source claimed that there was no bad blood when Davidson and Kardashian split.

“Kim and Pete have decided to just be friends,” a source close to Kardashian told Page Six at the time.

“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.”

Kardashian was then briefly linked to NFL star Odell Beckham Jr. before they split in April 2024.

In February, Kardashian’s secret romance with Formula One driver Lewis Hamilton was revealed.

The pair has been inseparable ever since.

For his part, Davidson dated Elsie Hewitt for a little over a year from March 2025 until earlier this month.

The two welcomed daughter Scottie in December before going their separate ways.
