Pete Davidson can joke all he wants about his past drug problems. However, his pals are said to be worried that his sobriety will go up in smoke.
The “Saturday Night Live” alum admitted during a recent stand-up gig that he can’t quit weed yet. “I did coke and ketamine and f*****g all the pills. All I have is weed left, so it’s almost over, but I’m holding on for a little bit longer,” Pete stated.
Shockingly, the former boyfriend of Kim Kardashian has been to rehab seven times already. For that reason, an unnamed source told The National Enquirer that Pete’s dependence on marijuana is “no laughing matter” for his friends, who worry he’s only making his life “harder” by getting stoned all the time.
“Pete’s admitted he’s an addictive personality. And anyone who’s hung out with him knows that when he smokes, he overanalyzes things and conjures up all kinds of dark thoughts. The fear is it could bring on temptation and other vices,” the anonymous insider told the entertainment news outlet.
The “Suicide Squad” actor formerly divulged he used to take ketamine—the dissociative drug that caused Matthew Perry’s death last year—as an anesthetic every day for four years.
Pete certainly has issues. The comedian lost his firefighter father in the 9/11 terrorist attacks, suffers from PTSD and was diagnosed with borderline personality disorder at age 23.
“Pete says he can’t handle life without getting a little numb, and in his view weed is a lot less dangerous than other options. But he relies on it way too much,” the informant suggested.
Meanwhile, Kim may have recently sought professional advice over the possibility of rekindling her relationship with her former partner, Pete. The reality TV actress from the "Kardashians" series initiated a passionate but brief romantic relationship with the comedian following a passionate kiss they shared on "Saturday Night Live."
Nevertheless, Kim and Pete ended their relationship after a mere nine months of dating, specifically in August 2022. Although their relationship has ended, there are speculations suggesting that Kim is feeling a sense of loneliness and is contemplating the idea of reigniting her romantic involvement with Pete.
Louella Alderson, a specialist in relationships, may offer a unique perspective to the 43-year-old owner of SKIMS.
"Rekindling a past romance can be both exciting and challenging. Ultimately, it depends on the circumstances surrounding the rekindling of the romance. If both parties have grown and matured since their previous relationship, there is a possibility that it could work. However, if old issues and patterns resurface without any attempt to address and resolve them, then the chances of success may be lower,” she stated to The Mirror.
"In the case of Kim Kardashian and Pete Davidson, it seems unlikely that they have significantly changed since their initial relationship,” Louella went on, adding uncertainy to the possibility of Kim and Pete getting back together.
