IT looks like model slash actress Emily Ratajkowski has been giving Kim Kardashian’s ex Pete Davidson a run for his money in the smarts department.
Since Pete, 29, and Emily, 31, have been dating the Gone Girl star has been challenging the Saturday Night Live alum intellectually.
While some men might be intimidated by Emily’s intelligence, Pete actually welcomes it.
“Pete makes Emily laugh and he loves how intelligent she is,” a source told Us Weekly.
The King of Staten Island star is up to handle Emily’s cleverness since he loves a good challenge.
“There’s no doubt Pete loves a challenge and he’s certainly met his intellectual match in Emily,” another source said.
It’s obvious that both Pete and Emily are intellectually compatible.
However, whether or not the Hollywood stars are suitable romantically is still to be determined.
At this point Pete and Emily are just exploring their budding romance and seeing where their relationship will go.
“[There’s] just a lot of fun and a chance to cut loose and see where it leads,” one source said.
PRO-PETE
Emily has had a soft spot for Pete since before she and him even started dating.
In 2021 Emily responded to critics who were downplaying Pete’s desirability and questioning how he scored Kim Kardashian, 42, when she appeared on Late Night With Seth Meyers.
“I feel like only other men feel [that he isn’t attractive]. Guys are like, ‘Wow. What’s that guy got?,” Emily said on the show.
“And I’m like, I mean, he seems super charming. He’s vulnerable… He looks good! [He has a] good relationship with his mom. We love it. It’s hard to find them.”
DATING TIMELINE
In mid-November of this year Emily and Pete sparked dating rumors when they were spotted out together.
This juicy pairing of celebs took the media by storm since both of them were coming out of serious relationships at the time they were caught together.
Pete and Kim broke-up in August because of long distance, and in September Emily filed for divorce from her husband Sebastian Bear-McClard because he allegedly cheated.
