Pete Davidson had a brief late-summer romance with Margaret Qualley. Their thing ended last week and there didn’t seem to be any major drama about the breakup, or the relationship really. It was the first time Pete had publicly dated someone close to his age since his failed engagement to Ariana Grande several years ago (Pete is 25, Margaret is 24). Well, now it looks like Pete might be getting involved with a younger woman… an 18-year-old. He’s maybe seeing Kaia Gerber?!?
Newly single Pete Davidson was spotted leaving supermodel Kaia Gerber‘s apartment building on Wednesday, a source tells Page Six. An insider confirmed Davidson, 25, was there to see Gerber, 18, but said the pair are “just friends.”
In paparazzi pictures, the “Saturday Night Live” star was photographed wearing casual clothes and AirPods as he walked in the Soho neighborhood where Gerber lives. Davidson and Gerber’s reps did not respond to requests for comment.
In June, Davidson made his runway debut for Alexander Wang, and Gerber, the daughter of Cindy Crawford and Rande Gerber, modeled in the fashion show. Our insider told us the show is where Gerber and Davidson most likely met.
Kaia Gerber is 18, but she looks 13. But… she’s been working full-time for years and I guess she lives alone now in an apartment in Soho? I’m sure she meets all kinds of seedy men, and if I’m really thinking about it… Pete might be the best version of the “seedy dude” out there. But yeah, hopefully they’re just friends and nothing more. Ugh. These kids.

He’s got to be incredible in bed, is all I can guess. BDE.
Not only BDE, but just BD. In that song Ariana did where she’s looking through her scrapbook of boyfriends, under Pete’s name is literally says, “HUUUUUUUUUUUUGE”. . . so that might be a “big” part of it.
My Lord, what do these girls see in him?
Tabloid headlines
@ Eliza Ditto. Ariana Grande and Kate Beckinsale made him a tabloid superstar so I’m sure a lot of upcoming models/actresses see him as a sure shot way to gain tabloid headlines. Nepotism model market is crowded so maybe this is Kaia’s way of getting noticed.
All I see is a guy who looks like Lurch from the Addams Family. I hope they are just friends but for some reason Kaia strikes me as thirsty
In this case I’d imagine he’s just her drug hook-up.
Aha! That makes total sense.
Howww is a guy this boring moving so quickly between beautiful successful girls?
I believe Seinfeld had an episode about how a shlubby guy gets to date beautiful women. They said that once you date one beautiful or famous woman it is like being admitted to the club and other beautiful women see you as viable suddenly.
I’ve mentioned in another Pete post that he has borderline personality disorder. Men and women with BPD are known for moving very quickly from one relationship to another, though not all behave like this. Their relationships tend to be short, impulsive, and intense but some marry or have off-on relationships that last years. BPD sufferers are known for idealizing their mates, and this can be very alluring. Imagine a man making you feel like the most beautiful and wonderful woman in the world and being willing to do anything for you during the idealization phase. They will quickly profess their love for you and want to be with you constantly. And, yes, they also have a reputation for being amazing lovers in addition to being fun and exciting people. It is easy to quickly feel drawn in by these individuals and even feel addicted to them, despite one’s best efforts. Of course, in the end, it all comes crashing down. During the devaluation phase, they can drop you like a hot potato, and all the heady exhilarating feelings you felt are replaced by despair. You really have to be with a BPD man or woman to know what I’m describing here, but I wouldn’t recommend it.
Just a friendly reminder that people don’t choose to have boderline personality disorder. Just like people don’t choose to have cancer. We have to find a way to discuss these things without demonizing people who live with mental health differences.
I don’t think WTW is saying it’s a choice but merely describing what is can be like to be with someone with BPD.
@Stepup, Where in my post did I say that people choose to have BPD or anything that demonized people with the disorder? I gave a list of reasons as to why Pete has likely been able to attract so many women. I also mentioned that they idealize and devalue people, which are hallmarks of the disorder found right in the DSM.
@WTW — You didn’t say that people had a choice. But the way it was presented made it seem a little ungenerous. I’m not discounting what you said. I understand that it’s in the DSM. All I am saying is that we need to come up with a way to be a bit kinder and more sensitive when discussing these things.
@WTW – I see you’ve run into a “disorder” shamer, much like body shamers, mommy shamers, etc. etc. Pay no attention. I have a great deal of experience with BPD – my mother and sister had it (my sister died as a result), and Mr. Jaded’s ex-wife has it. I do feel sorry for people who suffer this disorder, but unless they’re willing to go into a long DBT treatment program, their behaviour patterns will continue to be very destructive and hurtful. Your description is spot on and not demonizing the person at all.
@Stepup – there is no “kind” way to describe the multitude of symptoms BPD’s present with. They are what they are. On the one hand they can be charming, charismatic, talented, funny, loving and generous. But on a dime they can split into a needy, neurotic, deceitful, self-obsessed, angry, spiteful, uncontrollable version of themselves you don’t want be around.
I dated a guy with BPD once, and that description was spot on. It is so sad, because he was a very gifted person, but he just couldn’t sustain a relationship (or any kind) without creating drama and pain. He had been diagnosed but stopped treatment.
@Jaded — My mother-in-law also suffers. So, I am well aware. Thanks.
And I don’t feel bad for pointing out that saying “….BPD man or woman to know what I’m describing here, but I wouldn’t recommend it” is freighted with blame and shame, and is a bit harsh for people who have no choice in the matter. It’s like saying they’re not worthy of love or friendship.
It’s his BDE. Celebrities, hide your daughters!
he certainly has a type.
I really do think they’re just friends because for a while he was in all of Tommy Dorfman’s instastories who is bffs with Kaia AND Margaret. They all run in the same circle.
Here’s the thing- I like Attractive men, I like Smart men, I like Funny men….
…and I also, for some unknown reason, really find him hot.
This comment is so beautifully backhanded, I love it.
Seems like a lifetime but the great Pete Davidson and Ariana Grande romance was only a year ago, not several years.
God is that true, it feels like it happened five years ago tbh
Yup. They broke up in late 2018. So not even a year really
Several years ago lol. Wasn’t it last year? Feels like it.
Supermodel Kaia Gerber…? Ummmm no
I think it’s time for new famous people. I’m tired of this generation’s celebrities. Too many dysfunctional idiots along with Hollywood nepotism running wild – people told to praise celeb offspring before they’ve really achieved anything on their own. So they never have any motivation to try and be anything more or learn to work for anything. They just want it all handed to them, along with their trust fund credit cards. No thanks.
We need new celebrities with original & authentic talent.
Noooooooooo. Ugh.
He’s the millenial David Spade.
You nailed it!
Ooooh great comparison!
David Spade is funny. And looks like he showers.
Pete looks like he smells like unwashed bedsheets and used dental floss.
Do you think he pinches himself constantly?
Well that is the perfect comment. 🙂
How does him coming out of her apartment building lead people to assume that they’re dating? Is she the only one who lives in the building?
Exactly – I’m sure she lives in a big ass building with a doorman. Tons of people probably live there
For some reason I get it, he seems really…. sweet? I don’t know, I don’t get douchey vibes from him at all and he seems fun. Super young and immature but I do love him on Weekend Update.
A guy who talks about his GFs pussy on SM is not sweet. Come on now.
I don’t follow him on social media, come on now.
Girl, I’m right there with you.
People think he’s sweet because he threatened to hurt himself and does the “aw shucks” routine on TV. Prior to that, there were dozens of articles detailing the scumbaggy ways he spoke about his then-fiancee. And now the big old sweetheart bagged himself a teenager.
Maybe they were just doing drugs together?
My thoughts too.
“since his failed engagement to Ariana Grande several years ago”
I think this may need an edit!
“[…] supermodel Kaia Gerber […]”
Supermodel?
Oh, Lord have mercy and bless me, Jesus.
Frida_K, your comment made me burst out laughing. I needed that. Thank you.
When I read who he is with I just assume they’re doing drugs together. And that is the core of the relationship.
2 words: community penis
He might be a nice person but lord, he goes through “it girls” like skittles. Who is next…Miley?!
Nothing against him, but wtf is his appeal to women? Maybe because he’s funny and makes them laugh? I’d go for something much hotter, but whatever. His skinny legs do get to me, but that’s because I’m superficial.
She looks exhausted in that bottom photo, even professional makeup artists can’t hide those huge bags under her eyes. She is way too young for this lifestyle.
Yes she doesn’t look fresh at all – not like a few years ago when she made her debut. Those bags under her eyes says it all. Cindy is ok with this?
Her mom has the same thing with no makeup on. IMO her eyes are way too close-set for her to be anything more than very average. I don’t find her attractive at all.
Maybe his personality makes him cuter. Or he has other assets, lol. On the surface level, I don’t get it.
He’s TOTALLY her type. Check out her previous boyfriends. They’re male models but have that scumbag style. She likes them tall, skinny, and weird.
In that runway pictures she looks SO MUCH older than her actual age. That is a horrible picture! She looks tired or strung out and not healthy at all (maybe that is her “connection” with Pete). She is only a bit above average at best and for sure doesn’t have the IT her Mother had back in the day.
Yeah that is not a flattering photo of her, looking v tired. Optimist here says… tired from a demanding fashion week. Def not the pic of health there
She literally JUST turned 18, he has crashed and burned through half a dozen relationships, and you all sit around marveling about his “BDE”. This is extremely creepy.
Sorry, but pass. A twenty-four year old dating an eighteen year old is just repugnant to me. Grow up and stop going after partners too young to know better than to put up with your shit.
Drugs people…drugs. Ariana drugs…Kate Beckensale drugs….this 18 yr old child…drugs
How is Kaia a supermodel…. ?
Ew. The kid literally JUST turned 18 last freakin’ month. The barley-ist of barely legals (ugh, how I hate the tterm and myself for using it.)
This young man needs to focus on himself and his mental health instead of hanging with high schoolers (Kaia) and woman nearly old enough to be his mother (Kate Beckinsale).
I feel like everybody is way harsh towards Pete on every post about him here. Obviously he has something going for him, so let’s just be happy for him and keep it moving. Also, before he gets slammed for dating an 18 year old, let’s get some kind of confirmation that they’re actually dating, beyond someone seeing him coming out of the building Kaia lives in.
