Kenan Thompson: Kim Kardashian and Pete Davidson ‘happened kind of fast’

Even Kenan Thompson thinks his “Saturday Night Live” co-star Pete Davidson’s romance with Kim Kardashian is moving rapidly.

“I guess it happened kind of fast, but I don’t really know their business outside of what everybody else is reading, I guess,” the “All That” alum, 43, told “Access Hollywood” before hosting the 2021 People’s Choice Awards on Tuesday. “If they’re happy, I’m happy.”

Thompson speculated that the “King of Staten Island” star’s humble nature is attractive to the billionaire reality star.

“He’s a good dude, you know,” the “Kenan” star explained. “He’s a talented boy, and I think he’s just very down-to-earth and grounded, and that’s very appealing to people.”

Page Six broke the news in November that the “Keeping Up With the Kardashians” alum, 41, and Davidson, 28, are officially a couple after going on multiple dates in New York City and Los Angeles.

“They’re still getting to know each other and want as little pressure as possible. They’re trying to keep it under wraps,” a source told us. “They’re dating. There’s no formal title. They’re dating and getting to know each other — still figuring it out.”

We were told the comedic lothario — who has dated various Hollywood beauties and was once engaged to Ariana Grande — is already a hit with the Kardashian crew.

“He’s so funny and is a really good person. All of the friends love him,” our insider shared. “He’s the sweetest person.”

While the pair haven’t become Instagram-official just yet, both Kardashian and Davidson appeared on Flavor Flav’s account while celebrating the “Big Time Adolescence” star’s birthday in matching Skims pajamas.

The KKW Beauty mogul is in the midst of a divorce from Kanye West, with whom she shares children North, 8, Saint, 6, Chicago, 3, and Psalm, 2.
