Sure, he may have made a name for himself thanks to his comedic skills on Saturday Night Live, but Pete Davidson is better known for the string of stunning celebrities he’s dated.
In September 2023, it’s being reported the 27-year-old comedian has a new flame.
According to a source that spoke to US Weekly, the latest girl in Davidson’s love life is none other than Outer Banks star Madelyn Cline.
“Pete and Madelyn are dating. They spent the night together at the Beverly Hills Hotel and then had breakfast together there the next morning,” the source said.
“They were really low-key and kept things casual, wearing baseball hats.”
The outlet later reported the pair had “been dating for several weeks but have grown close fairly quickly” according to a source.
While the pair are yet to comment on their reported romance, the dating speculation comes after Davison recently split from his former co-star Chase Sui Wonders.
While his illustrous dating history has gathered the attention of many and become a meme for the internet, the SNL star previously admitted in a tell-all interview with Charlamagne Tha God, posted to YouTube, that he just “loves love”.
“That’s how I grew up. Just my mum, my sister, I didn’t have a man around the house, so I was just like, ‘When am I going to find my Princess Charming?’ That’s all I’ve ever wanted.”
Davison admitted in an interview with Paper magazine that he treats every girl he’s with “like a princess”.
“I try and go as above and beyond as possible because that’s what you’re supposed to do,” he said. “If you’re in a relationship with someone, you’re just supposed to make that person feel as special as possible.”
He admits, however, that sometimes his dedication to the relationship can turn his partners off. “Sometimes when you put so much on someone, it overwhelms them, and then they don’t know if they could come close to that. Or if they can keep up with it. So, it’s very off-putting to some.
“It’s something I had to learn in a past relationship, which sucked to learn through that person, but it makes you better.”
In May, Davidson opened up about how he approaches relationships, saying honesty is the best policy in matters of the heart.
“I’m just very, very honest,” the Saturday Night Live star told The Breakfast Club on May 6. “I think what a lot of people do is they try to put on — not even their best self — but almost a version of themself that they would like to be. And eventually, that will unravel, you know?”
So just who are the women he’s talking about?
Madelyn Cline
Outer Banks actress Madelyn Cline, 25, is reportedly Davidson’s latest flame.
Cline has previously been linked to other famous names, including her co-star Chase Stokes in 2020 who she dated for over a year.
The actress then had a relationship with Jackson Guthy from June 2022 before seemingly calling it quits in July 2023 after fans speculated they had split.
The rumours that Cline and Guthy had broken up seemed to be confirmed by US Weekly after they reported the Netflix star was seeing Pete Davidson as of September 22, 2023.
A source confirmed the news to the outlet, claiming: “Pete and Madelyn are dating.”
“They spent the night together at the Beverly Hills Hotel and then had breakfast together there the next morning,” the source added.
“They were really low-key and kept things casual, wearing baseball hats.”
Days later, US Weekly reported another source confirmed that the pair “have been dating for several weeks but have grown close fairly quickly.”
The source said the pair “had hoped to remain low-key for a while, especially because Madelyn is a really private person.”
According to the same insider, Davidson “loves Madelyn’s dry sense of humour”, while also sharing the relationship has his sister’s stamp of approval.
On September 25, Page Six reported Cline had stepped out to support Davidson at his stand-up comedy show in Vegas.
The Glass Onion: A Knives Out Mystery star was reportedly present in the audience at her new beau’s show, Pete Davidson Live.
The couple then stayed at the luxurious Crockfords Entertainment Suite at Resorts World according to the outlet.
News that Cline is dating the SNL comedian has lead some fans to believe that the actress had already soft launched their relationship on socials media before the reports.
On September 15, Cline shared a series of photos of her at MetLife Stadium. But there was one photo that had some eagle-eyed fans looking closer.
The actress posted a pic to Instagram her and an unidentified person who she didn’t tag.
The picture has been taken from behind and shows someone with their arm wrapped around Cline’s shoulder, appearing to be holding her hand while looking snug.
Following the dating news and looking at the pair’s respective heights, the pic has fans convinced it’s none other than Davidson.
“That guy with his arm around you really was Pete Davidson,” one person commented.
“Pete Davison era??” another said.
Neither Cline nor Davidson have confirmed the reports that they are dating.
Chase Sui Wonders
Davidson and Chase Sui Wonders met on the set of Bodies Bodies Bodies in 2021, but it wasn’t until January 2023 that the rumour mill kicked into gear as the pair were spotted out and about together.
The couple hit the headlines two months later in March when they were reportedly involved in a car crash.
Their relationship came to an end in August 2023, with a source claiming: “There’s no bad blood or any hard feelings between them. Their relationship had simply run its course and they decided they just wanted different things.”
Emily Ratajkowski
Davidson had a short-lived relationship with model Emily Ratajkowski in 2022.
The pair were spotted for the first time in November, fuelling the rumours. They then made their public debut weeks later at an NBA game between the New York Knicks and Memphis Grizzlies in New York.
However, it was all over by December 27, an insider reporting: “Their fling has moved into the friend zone.”
Kim Kardashian
In one of the more surprising celebrity pairings in recent memory, we had Davidson and Kim Kardashian.
They crossed into each other’s orbits in 2019, when Kim shared an onscreen kiss with Davidson in a sketch when she hosted SNL for the first time.
Page Six first reported Davidson and Kardashian had a private dinner together on Staten Island in November 2021. Later that month, ET reported a source had confirmed to the outlet that the couple were in fact dating.
“Kim thinks Pete is hysterical and he’s constantly making her laugh, but they also have been connecting on a deeper level,” the source added.
Davidson and Kardashian made some memorable public appearances during their time together, including at the 2022 Met Gala.
The mum of four even visited Davidson in Australia while he was out here filming a project.
Sadly, after nine months together the pair later called it quits in August 2022.
E! News reported the split, with a source telling the outlet that the couple had broken up due to their demanding schedules and long distance. which “made it really difficult to maintain a relationship.”
While the couple didn’t make the distance, Kardashian and Davidson will go down in history as one of the most iconic pop culture pairings with some very memorable relationship moments.

Phoebe Dynevor
Davidson sparked dating rumours with Bridgerton star Phoebe Dynevor in March 2021. Confirmation came in July when the comedian and Dynevor, 26, made their first public appearance as a couple at Wimbledon.
In the photos, the pair were spotted cuddling and kissing as they were hosted in the Lanson suite for Roger Federer’s match.
The Sun first reported Davidson and Dynevor spent time together in London recently after meeting in New York City in March.
The two stars have reportedly been spotted together near Dynevor’s home in North London as well as in Altrincham, Greater Manchester, where she grew up and where her mum, Coronation Street star Sally Dynevor, currently lives.
“Pete is a real charmer and has hit it off with Phoebe, who is obviously beautiful and talented,” a source told The Sun. “They have been enjoying each other’s company, although they haven’t known each other long.
“The fact he has flown all the way to the UK shows how interested he is.”
The pair were also spotted wearing matching necklaces inscribed with “PD” — their shared initials. Davidson even wore the silver piece of jewellery when he appeared on The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon on April 6, while Dynevor has reportedly been seen wearing hers multiple times.
However, their romance was short-lived with the couple splitting in August, after five months of dating. According to The Sun, the pair split due to their busy work schedules. Dynevor is currently in the UK shooting Season 2 of Bridgerton, while Davidson is based in New York.
“Pete and Phoebe’s romance was a real whirlwind and from the start, they were both totally committed,” a source told the outlet. “But as time has passed, it’s become increasingly obvious it is going to be difficult to make this work.”
Kaia Gerber
Davidson was first linked to the daughter of supermodel Cindy Crawford in late October, 2019, when they were spotted having brunch in New York, before heading back to her apartment.
Despite insisting they were “just friends”, Davidson and Gerber were seen holding hands in upstate New York following a string of dates around the country. Oh, and there’s the fact the 18-year-old model was wearing a “P” necklace.
Their whirlwind romance lasted no longer than three months, though, with Page Six reporting the pair called it quits on January 14.
“It looks like Pete and Kaia are over. It got very overwhelming for Kaia,” a source told the publication. “Pete has a certain M.O. and he’s very intense to his girlfriends. Kaia is only 18 and it’s a lot to deal with.”
Rumours of a split started early into 2020 when Gerber was spotted on holiday with her mum, 13 Reasons Why star Tommy Dorfman and Queer Eye‘s Antoni Porowski.
It’s since been reported, Davidson is “taking a break to work on his mental health”. “This is his second time seeking treatment, his first being in 2016,” an insider told E! News.
“It became very clear that he had to go and do this and couldn’t wait any longer.”
Margaret Qualley
For a little over two months in 2019, Davidson and the up-and-coming actress enjoyed a very public romance, gallivanting across the globe together.
Sources described the couple as “very smiley and flirty” when they arrived in Venice to celebrate attend the movie premiere for Seberg.
Unfortunately, it appeared to be nothing more than a summer romance for Davidson and Andie MacDowell’s daughter, with the pair parting ways in October 2019 before the comedian moved on with another Hollywood heavyweight’s offspring.
Kate Beckinsale
More than being the first woman he moved on with following his engagement to Ariana Grande, it was the age difference Davidson had with Kate Beckinsale that dominated headlines.
The actress, 46, and Davidson packed on the PDA for four months after first being seen together at a Golden Globes afterparty in January, 2019.
Despite being “very happy” together, Davidson was forced to defend their 21-year age gap, explaining, “Apparently people have a crazy fascination with our age difference. But it doesn’t really bother us.”
They split “amicably” in April.
Ariana Grande
It was his relationship with vocal powerhouse Ariana Grande that catapulted Davidson into stardom.
In May, 2018, the pair were first linked to each other after they were pictured backstage at the Billboard Music Awards.
“They seemed very lovey-dovey. He was hanging out with her and her friends with his arm around her. She seemed quite smitten,” a source said at the time.
Within weeks they were Insta official and by June 3 they were engaged.
“The day I met her, I was like, ‘Hey, I’ll marry you tomorrow,'” Davidson told GQ. “She was calling my bluff. I sent her a picture [of engagement rings]. I was like, ‘Do you like any of these?’ She was like, ‘Those are my favourite ones,’ and I was like, ‘Sick.'”
In case the engagement wasn’t commitment enough, Davidson then got the former Disney star’s initials tattooed on his hand and her trademark bunny ears inked behind his ear.
However, by mid-October it was over.
“It was way too much too soon,” a source said of the split, which happened shortly after Grande’s ex-boyfriend Mac Miller had tragically lost his life at just 26 years old.
Not long after, Grande released, ‘Thank U Next’ in which she name-checks her ex.
Cazzie David
Davidson found love with actor Larry David’s daughter, Cazzie, in 2016, going on to date for two years.
David supported Davidson on his journey to becoming sober, with the SNL star gushing about how “lucky” he was to have her during such a pivotal moment in his life in 2017.
“It wasn’t easy, but I got a great girl, great friends and I consider myself a lucky man. I’ll always be here for you guys, I promise,” he wrote on Instagram.
“Remember to never give up hope because sometimes that’s all we got. We are a family and I appreciate all your love and support. It’s nice to be back in action.”
Despite admitting he was the “luckiest guy in the world” to be with David who he said he loved “very, very much”, it wasn’t meant to be, and the pair went their separate ways in May 2018.
“We’re not together anymore,” he said in an interview with Complex magazine. “Very talented girl, she’ll be great and she’ll be fine. Yeah, I think she’ll be OK.”
Carly Aquilino
Not much is known about Davidson’s relationship with stand-up comedian and the star of MTV’s Girl Code, Carly Aquilino, other than the fact they were together in 2015.
While they’ve stayed relatively quiet about their romance, Aquilino did seem to address her relationship with Davidson after news broke that he was engaged to Ariana Grande, sharing a screenshot of texts with a friend on Instagram, captioned “My day in a text message”.
“I know I’m the 9 billionth person to text you today about this, but… I can’t,” the message read, to which Aquilino responded, “HAHHAHAHAAH.”
