According to E News who heard from an insider close to the pair Kim and Pete ended on good terms and still had a lot of love and respect for each other but simply struggled to manage their demanding schedules and long distance dynamic

Kim and Pete s romance was actually sparked on the SNL set when the two shared a kiss as part of a sketch in October And as things progressed between them Kim ended up finding herself gushing about how the comedian was literally the best human being she d ever met

What s more it was clear that Pete — who got several tattoos and branded scars on his body in Kim s honor — was a staple part of Kim s life as he was spotted hanging out with her 9- and 6-year-old kids North and Saint on separate occasions during their relationship

I cannot begin to imagine how Kim Kardashian looks for a partner It s not like you re gonna bump into someone in Ralph s he quipped before asking How do you do it Do you get set up by friends do you go on a dating app — how does Kim K get a date

Kim replied I haven t really thought about it cause I m not looking I just wanna chill for a minute

I think I need some time to myself and to focus finish school all that she said

However Kim went on to divulge that her next route will involve trying something completely different as she admitted that her current dating choices haven t been all too successful

Kim then revealed her exact hopes for a future partner noting that she doesn t envision herself with any other figure from the celebrity world

Maybe I ll go to a hospital and meet a doctor or a law firm — I think it s gonna be a scientist neuroscientist biochemist doctor attorney… That s maybe what I envision in the future she said

Interestingly when Kim initially began dating Pete fans couldn t help but notice how different her choice had been in comparison to her previous partner Kanye West to whom she d been married for almost seven years

Kim filed for divorce from Ye last February citing irreconcilable differences Opening up about the difficult decision during the final season of Keeping Up With the Kardashians the beauty mogul admitted that she d grown tired of Ye s grand extravagant gestures and instead longed for the little things and smaller experiences

It s the little things that I don t have she told her mom Kris Jenner in an emotional conversation I have all the big things I have everything extravagant you could possibly imagine And no one will ever do it like that again I m grateful for those experiences but I think I m ready for the smaller experiences that I think will mean a lot

E!

And so while fans were undoubtedly confused by the unlikely pairing of Kim and Pete when they first got together things actually made total sense as the reality star finally found herself enjoying the little things in a relationship that she d long yearned for while she was with the comic

Pete and Kim were spotted out on several low-key ice cream and pizza dates — a stark contrast to the fancy outings she and Ye used to embark on And as Kim was pictured beaming in Pete s presence on several occasions her shift in demeanor became super evident to fans

So much so in fact that several internet users couldn t help but comment on Kim s newfound glow when she appeared on The Ellen Show back in March and gushed about her and Pete s relationship She s glowing from happiness I don t think we ve ever seen her this happy one person wrote It s like she s a new person she s radiating so much new energy another added
