Pete Davidson‘s ‘Saturday Night Live’ cast members aren’t convinced his relationship with Kim Kardashian is the real deal.
Kenan Thompson didn’t sound convincing when he told PEOPLE he’s “happy” for Pete, as long as Pete’s happy.
“I mean, you’ve got to be happy for love, I guess. If it’s love! They look like they’re having a good time. I’m always happy when he’s happy.”
SNL writer and cast member Bowen Yang insisted he didn’t know “the nature” of Kim and Pete’s “friendship” but he thought they were getting along pretty well.
“I don’t know what the nature of the friendship is, but it seems like they’re having a good time hanging out.”
And SNL cast member Chris Redd wrote in a recent Instagram post:
“Pete and Kim? Damn, Pete. Damn! I hope they’re happy. They’re wearing matching outfits so I think they’re on their way. (At least) that’s what Instagram told me.”
The public is slowly warming to Kim and Pete’s May-December relationship which began after Kim hosted SNL last month.
Pete’s documented mental health and substance abuse problems make him a good match for Kim, who has a history of dating unstable men.
At 41, the mother-of-four is 13 years older than Pete, who is childless. The 28-year-old comic has a history of failed relationships with starlets and Cougars.

Kim’s body language looks like she’s into Pete as she was into NBA star Kris Humphries.
Some people suspect Kim is using Pete because she’s jealous of her sister Kourtney Kardashian‘s relationship with rocker Travis Barker.
This is what the Internet is saying about Kim & Pete:
“This is also Kim Kardashian we’re talking about, it’s probably all just a way to keep her name trending. Might have been the same deal with Ariana – and he doesn’t mind getting used as long as he’s getting p*ssy out of the deal.”
“Kim is an attention whore that got made cuz her sister was getting more attention than her for fukking Travis barker.”
