Pete Davidson, the comedian known for his wit and charm, is once again navigating the dating scene. Most recently, he was in a relationship with Outer Banks actress Madelyn Cline. However, sources confirmed to PEOPLE in July 2024 that the couple had ended their relationship after nearly a year together.
Before Cline, Davidson’s dating history includes a string of notable names. He dated actress Chase Sui Wonders for a significant portion of a year, had a highly publicized nine-month relationship with Kim Kardashian after they met on SNL, and briefly dated model Emily Ratajkowski for two months.
In a candid March 2023 appearance on the Real Ones podcast, Davidson spoke about the intense scrutiny surrounding his dating life. He expressed feeling like a “loser” when SNL began incorporating jokes about his relationships into the show.
“I’m in my 20’s and I’ve dated people. And for some reason, that’s very crazy and interesting to people. I don’t think it’s interesting,” Davidson stated. He further elaborated on the “s—ty feeling” of public focus shifting from his career achievements to his romantic partners.
From a summer romance with Bridgerton star Phoebe Dynevor to his engagement with pop sensation Ariana Grande, let’s delve into a comprehensive overview of Pete Davidson’s dating history, exploring each relationship in detail.
