KEY POINTS

  • Kim Kardashian made her relationship with Pete Davidson official on Instagram by sharing "cute" photos of them
  • The "KUWTK" star said she felt good about turning 40 and dating the "Saturday Night Live" comedian
  • Kardashian encouraged her friends and other people to find their happiness because that's what she did 

Kim Kardashian shared some details about her first Instagram photo with her boyfriend, Pete Davidson.

The "Keeping Up With the Kardashians" alum will appear on "The Ellen DeGeneres Show" this week to speak about her relationship with the "Saturday Night Live" star. According to the 41-year-old reality star, they have "cute pictures," so she decided to share them with her fans.

"I have the cutest pictures of us, and I want to be like, 'Oh, my God, we're so cute,' but then I'm like, 'Don't be so desperate. Don't be posting so much, just give a glimpse,'" Kardashian said in the teaser, as quoted by Page Six.

Kardashian joked to Ellen DeGeneres that she had not dated since "before Instagram existed." So, she didn't know "what the rules" were when posting about her boyfriend on the platform.

The Skims founder also shared how turning 40 and dating the comedian have changed her perspective in life.

"It feels good. I think it's just in life, like no matter what it is, I encourage my friends and the people that I love just to be happy, and I went for it," Kardashian shared. "I went for it, and, you know what? I'm in my 40s, like, f–k it — sorry — just go for it, find your happiness. I went for it, and I took my time, and I found it, and it feels so good and I want to hold onto that forever."

The "Kardashians" star made her relationship with Davidson Instagram official last Friday. She shared snaps of them in a slideshow that featured her wearing a silver ensemble and metallic boots. The second slide showed Kardashian sitting on the floor and Davidson lying on her with his head tilted back. The fourth photo was a close-up shot of the "King of Staten Island" star smiling while wearing sunglasses with Kardashian behind him making a kissing face.

An unnamed source told E! News recently that she was "thankful" for Davidson because he was "extremely understanding and chill." Kardashian was also very happy when Davidson defended her from Kanye West's attacks on social media after letting their 8-year-old daughter North use TikTok.

"She thinks it's complete nonsense how Kanye is acting, and enough is enough. She's so happy Pete spoke out [and] hopes Kanye can now move on," the insider said.
