Kim and Pete began dating in fall 2021 after the reality star’s hosting debut onSNL. The romance came months after Kimfiled for divorcefrom Kanye, 45, following six years of marriage.
As Kim and Pete’srelationship flourished, Kanye hurled several attacks at the couple both online and in the press, including in a video for his single “Eazy,” in which the rapperkidnapped, tied up and burieda claymation version of Pete.
The pair ultimatelysplit in August 2022after nine months together. Around that time, a source told PEOPLE that Pete “has been intrauma therapyin large part” due to Kanye’s threatening posts.
“The attention and negativity coming from Kanye and his antics is a trigger for [Pete], and he’s had to seek out help,” the source said at the time.
The comedian has sincemade light of the situation, joking in one of his standup routines about how he had a “really weird year” and touching upon all the insults the rapper made towards him. Pete and Kim have alsoremained friendly, even reunitingat the 2023Met Galaearlier this month.
“Even through all of the craziness of everything that Kanye says about us, I never comment, I never post… we stay silent through all the lies,” she said. “Even how he looks so down on me formy [sex] tape, brings it up all over town, all over the media. Like, thanks for reminding people once again. All of his shenanigans is gonna be far more damaging to the kids one day than my tape will ever be and I have to sit here and not say anything, ever, because I know one day my kids will appreciate that.”

Despite the difficult situation with her exes, Kim also said in Thursday’s episode that she hopes to find love again.
“I go back and forth in my feelings sometimes, like, who’s ever gonna wanna date me?” she said in a confessional. “I have four kids, I’m in my 40s … like, who’s gonna wanna deal with the drams? But my person is gonna be like, ‘F— all that. It’s gonna be hard, but we’re together and we’re gonna do this.’ So I’m just waiting for that person.”
“I think I’ll always be a hopeless romantic and always want to be in love and definitely love sharing my life with someone, and love creating a life with someone,” she said. “I definitely will take my time. And I think there’s so many factors, especiallywhen you have kidsand being mindful of people that enter in your life.”
