Emily Ratajkowski has opened up about her severe weight loss that was triggered by her divorce from Sebastian Bear-McClard.
But it seems as though her relationship with Pete Davidson is helping her heal.
Scroll on for the full story…
Pete comes from humble beginnings.
He was born in 1993 in New York City and grew up on Staten Island.
Pete was met with tragedy early in his life.
His firefighter father was killed during the September 11 attacks in 2001.
His career started early.
He began acting in 2010, with roles in Brooklyn Nine-Nine, Friends of the People, Guy Code, and Wild ‘n Out.
But in 2014, Pete had his big break…
He was cast on SNL, making him the youngest cast member in history!
He’s been a member of the cast for 8 seasons.
But aside from his career, Pete might just be better known for something else…
We all remember his relationship with Ariana Grande, right?
The pair dated in 2018, and were even engaged!
Grande’s song “Pete Davidson” appeared on her album Sweetener.
He’s also referenced in “Thank U Next.”
Following their split, Pete dated actress Kate Beckinsale.
She was twenty years his senior, and the relationship lasted from January to August in 2019.
Pete also went out with model Kaia Gerber…
The 2 were together between October 2019 to January 2020.
He also dated actress Phoebe Dyvenor is 2021.
You may recognize her from Bridgerton.
And then, of course, there’s Kim Kardashian.
Following Kim’s split from her husband Kanye West, she dated Pete!
Most notably Pete entered into Kim’s private life, which has become less and less private as the years go on.
And it’s fair to say he became embroiled in the drama between her and Kanye.
One of the main media obsessions was Kanye’s constant meddling in their relationship…
As he didn’t take too kindly to his ex-wife moving on so swiftly with the comedian, calling the pair out over and over again on social media.
Following Kanye’s attacks on Pete, Kim appeared to have had enough of the situation as she asked Kanye to stop putting Pete in danger.
In one of many deleted posts, Kanye shared screenshots of his messages with Kim.
The screenshots showed Kim telling Kanye that he is “creating a dangerous and scary environment and someone will hurt Pete and this will be all your fault.”
Captioning the post on Instagram, Kanye repeated Kim’s pleas to keep Pete safe as he wrote: “UPON MY WIFE’S REQUEST PLEASE NOBODY DO ANYTHING PHYSICAL TO SKETE IM GOING TO HANDLE THE SITUATION MYSELF.”
Before Kim added in another screenshot shared by Kanye: “There are dangerous people out there and this is scary and it doesn’t have to be,” the outlet reports.
Kanye responded to Kim in the messages writing: “I will always do everything to protect you and our family forever. And I listened to you and told everyone to make sure nothing physical happens to Skete.”
Kanye’s attacks on both Kim and Pete have been pretty constant…
But throughout it all, many people believe that Kim has handled it well.
In one of Kanye’s new songs, the rapper says: “Pops home, I ain’t getting frisked / I put your security at risk.”
He continues: “I walk in the crib, no getting frisk / Butt-naked in the kitchen cooking grits / Tell yo’ mama, “Come give me a kiss” / Security gon’ need security for this.” This seems to imply Kanye will do whatever it takes to be part of their lives again.
Kanye goes on to rap: “Never take the family picture off the fridge / Never stand between a man and his kids.”
This was allegedly aimed at Pete.
Since the new season of Keeping Up with The Kardashians aired…
We surprisingly saw Pete becoming a part of Kim’s life.
Things seemed to have been going swimmingly.
But, obviously, there were some cracks, with Sky News reporting that the pair had gone their separate ways.
Apparently, the couple still has “a lot of love for each other” but their work commitments “made it really difficult to maintain a relationship.”
Fans immediately thought of one thing…
People began pointing fun at the tattoos Pete got for the reality star, UNILAD reports.
Back in April, fans spotted a tattoo on Pete which read KNSCP which stood for Kim’s initials along with those of her 4 children.
One person tweeted: “Pete Davidson really got all those tattoos for Kim Kardashian only for them to break up.”
“You’re laughing? Pete Davidson has a tattoo of Kim Kardashian’s kids and you’re laughing?” another commented, while a third wrote: “Pete Davidson’s tattoo removal guy just put a down payment on another boat.”
Following their breakup, the real reason behind their split was revealed.
And it all comes down to Kim’s commitment to motherhood.
According to an insider, the pair are on very different life paths.
“Pete is 28 and Kim is 41 — they are just in very different places at the moment,” the insider said, as per Page Six.
“Pete is totally spontaneous and impulsive and wants her to fly to New York, or wherever he is on a moment’s notice.
“But Kim has four kids and it isn’t that easy. She needs to focus on the kids,” they added.
Despite this, many have speculated as to how Pete has so much luck with the ladies.
Including one rather X-rated theory…
“I praise Pete, I praise Pete. There’s something in the sauce. He got something, okay,” Jay Pharoah said on the SiriusXM The Jess Cagle Show.
“So, I talk to him, I said, ‘Pete, man, what is it?’ I said, ‘Could, what is it, what’d you do? What was it? How you do it?’
“He told me what it was. It, it’s his endowment. He confirmed it. He was like, ‘Yeah bro, it’s like nine inches.’
“I was like, ‘What? Word. Oh, snap we twins. That’s crazy,’” Pharoah continued.
“You know, that’s, that’s what they do. You know, that’s what happens… he got Kate Beckinsale. He got the vampire from the Underworld. What the hell?
“Are you kidding me? What, you got Ariana Grande? You? What? You got my money, my car, my push,” he concluded.
Well, dating expert Amber Kelleher-Andrew revealed the truth to the Daily Mail.
The first reason? His sense of humor!
“This is not a cliché. If you follow the science, research has proven that our attitude and state of mind is directly related to our overall health and wellness,” she explained.
“It’s no wonder the leading ladies are drawn to Pete Davidson! Said simply, Pete makes the ladies laugh and this lowers their levels of stress hormones, such as cortisol and adrenaline while concurrently raising their endorphins and dopamine.
“It’s quite remarkable when you break down the physiology of laughter.
“Pete’s humor brings joy and happiness to his partners and when they feel great and less stressed, they desire more of him,” the expert explained.
The next reason? His big brown eyes!
Well, kind of. It’s more his vulnerable, charming look and demeanor.
“Pete wears his heart on his sleeve. He has been very open and candid about his difficult past and because of this transparency women are drawn to his innocence.
“Pete is what I like to call ‘comfortably charming’. What you see is what you get, and this approachability (especially for type A personalities such as leading ladies) is refreshing,” Kelleher-Andrew said.
The third reason for Pete’s success is his status.
His SNL stint has given him some major cache amongst celebrity types!
“Hollywood and SNL are synonymous with one another, from comedic icons such as Mike Myers, Steve Martin, and Eddie Murphy to box-office mega stars like Will Ferrell, Chris Rock, and Adam Sandler.
“I know firsthand that single men who have reached mega success in their careers tend to be more attractive than those who have not. Hollywood stardom is even more rare, and Pete Davidson has achieved both,” she said.
“Typically, taller men are considered more attractive than their shorter counterparts.
“Pete not only makes his leading ladies laugh but he also stands at 6’3” thus naturally displaying this alpha male characteristic. His stature is directly tied to power, strength, and protection. In a nutshell, Pete’s dominance makes the leading ladies feel safe,” the expert concluded.
And it seems as if these reasons have worked in the star’s favor yet again as Pete has reportedly found a new flame.
In the form of the “most beautiful woman in the world.”
The mystery woman is best known as the “Blurred Lines Girl.”
She has also played many roles in Hollywood films like Gone Girl, We Are Your Friends, I Feel Pretty, Lying and Stealing, and The American Meme.
She has landed television roles too.
In episodes of iCarly, The Spoils Before Dying, Easy, and most recently Ziwe.
Her gleaming portfolio includes the likes of some of the biggest publications and designers in the industry, making her one of the most-talked-about names in fashion…
As well as being dubbed the “most beautiful woman in the world.”
The pair have recently been spotted together in a steamy embrace.
And when you find out who it is, you’ll be shocked…
So who is Pete reportedly dating?
None other than model and actress Emily Ratajkowski!
“Pete and Emily have been talking for a couple months now,” a source told US Weekly, whilst admitting the pair are still in the very early stage of their relationship.
“Pete makes Emily laugh, and he loves how intelligent she is.”
Rumors about their relationship together sparked after they were publicly seen holding hands on a date in Brooklyn on Saturday night, according to the Instagram gossip account DeuxMoi.
The anonymous tipster claimed to the Instagram gossip page that “his hands were allll over her and they’re clearly hooking up.”
However, neither of the 2 stars has addressed the rumors.
But it doesn’t look like they have to, as they were snapped getting close after celebrating Pete’s 29th birthday.
They were seen on a date headed to the model’s West Village apartment in New York City…
They shared a sweet embrace before heading inside. You can see the pics here.
Now, as shocking as it might be that they’re together, Emily actually spoke pretty highly of the comedian just last year.
They both appeared on Late Night with Seth Meyers, and she let her thoughts known.
She explained: “Pete’s got the height. Obviously, women find him very attractive.
“I feel like only other men feel [confused by it]. I feel like guys are like, ‘Wow, what’s this guy got?'”
She added: “I mean, he seems super charming, he’s vulnerable, he’s lovely, his fingernail polish is awesome, he looks good, he’s great! A good relationship with his mother too.”
Although the pair haven’t officially confirmed they’re an item, Emily certainly thinks very highly of him.
And rather than address the rumors, the model has been teasing fans about her love life…
In a new TikTok, Emily shared a tease-worthy video.
In the video, she is sitting in the backseat of a car.
She then starts to lip-sync along to a sound bite from an interview with actress Haley Lu Richardson on the app that said: “I would be with multiple men. I would be with also some women, as well. Everyone’s hot but in an interesting way.”
According to reports, when Haley Lu said this on the red carpet, she was describing her dream vacation, but now that the sound is in the hands of Emily…
It takes on a whole new meaning. You can watch the TikTok here.
And if that wasn’t telling enough, fans also have spotted that she’s liked a tweet of Pete along with the lyrics to Drake’s “Middle of the Ocean.”
Pete could be seen posing with the caption reading: “EmRata here fresh off divorce/And I’m trying to look in her eyes, maybe express my remorse/if she wanna rebound w me, I’m down to get her some boards.”
The post, made by GQ’s Senior Entertainment Editor, clearly implies that Pete wants the model to rebound with him after her divorce from Sebastian Bear-McClard.
She split from McClard, who she shares a 1-year-old child with, after rumors began circulating that he’d cheated.
They were together for 4 years before their split.
And it clearly had a huge effect on her mental and physical well-being…
As Emily has opened up about her “really scary” weight loss following her divorce…
During a recent episode of her podcast, High Low, she told guest Mia Khalifa, “I think trauma lives in the body… That’s been my experience.”
She went on to explain: “When I’m really unwell, I lose so much weight. I was down to 100 pounds recently and it was really, really scary.”
However, thankfully, she revealed she has now “gained weight,” and feels a lot healthier.
“For me, it’s a huge game-changer and how I know I’m happy,” she said.
It seems as though her relationship with Pete is really helping her heal.
