Pete Davidson’s inner circle advising him not to appear on ‘The Kardashians’

Reality TV

Don’t expect to see Pete Davidson on “The Kardashians.”

While Kim Kardashian seems ready to have her beau appear on her family’s new Hulu series, a source tells us people close to the “Saturday Night Live” star are advising him against it.

We’re told Davidson’s pals are pointing out to him that his career is already at a high point.

“His career has taken off, what does he need this for?” a source noted.

Davidson has a number of projects in the works, including a biopic about Joey Ramone, a rom-com with “SNL” co-star Colin Jost and a sneaker flick titled “American Sole,” among others.

And although Davidson, 28, has dated high-profile women in the past (including Ariana Grande and Kate Beckinsale), we’re told his team believes that doing reality TV would blow up any sense of normalcy.

“Before he met Kim, no one knew what Pete was doing [all the time],” explains the source.

Davidson’s inner circle has also pointed out that men in the Kardashian universe (like Tristan Thompson, Lamar Odom and Kris Humphries) don’t normally fare well on reality TV.

“It’s a sure way to kill the relationship,” the source argues. “Getting involved in the show decimates every man.”

However, another source tells us that it isn’t true people are telling Davidson not to participate. “He feels no pressure to be in the show. Neither do the people around him. If it happens that he’s on the show, it happens.”

Page Six has reached out to reps for Davidson and Kardashian for comment.

A Hulu spokesperson told Variety that “The Kardashians” is the “most-watched series premiere on Hulu in the United States, and on Disney+ and Star+ among Star Originals, across all global markets to date.”

According to reports, cameras were filming at the show’s premiere in Los Angeles earlier this month and caught Kardashian and Davidson arriving and hanging out at the event.

However, Kardashian, 41, told Variety that she has “not filmed with” Davidson.

“I’m not opposed to it. It’s just not what he does,” she said at the time.

Naturally, Kardashian and Davidson’s relationship has been a huge talking point during promotion for “The Kardashians.”

The Skims founder previously revealed that Season 1 will give answers to how she and Davidson met along with “who reached out to who and how it happened and all the details that everyone wants to know.”
