The dating rumors about Kim and Odell began circulating in the summer of 2023.
According to In Touch Weekly, the pair have been seeing each other since July 2023, when they both went to a Hamptons party hosted by billionaire Michael Rubin.
“They’re dating and Odell even went to Kim’s in Calabasas to meet the whole family during one of [Khloé Kardashian‘s kids’] birthday parties a few weeks ago,” a source told the outlet.
In September, sources told People that the pair “are hanging out.”
Their rumored romance came after the Baltimore Ravens wide receiver and his long-term girlfriend, model Lauren Wood, officially called it quits.
Kim’s representative told The U.S. Sun that she and Odell “are friends and have a lot of mutual friends in common,” adding that the Hulu star is not “seriously dating anyone.”
Their rumored romance appears to have gone from strength to strength, however, as Kim was seen at Odell’s 31st birthday party in November.
She headed to the NFL star’s bash after attending the CFDA Fashion Awards.

And this week, sources have claimed that the couple are finally getting serious.
“Kim has been romantically involved with Odell since last summer and thought she had managed to keep it under wraps,” an insider told DailyMail.com on Friday.
“She is not seeing anyone else right now – at least not that her close friends know of.”
The source said they have kept things quiet as Kim wanted to avoid claims that she was a “homewrecker” in Odell’s relationship with Lauren.
Odell shares a 1-year-old son, Zydn, with Lauren.
“Kim really wanted to keep this romance private for two reasons. One is that he has a one-year-old son with his ex-Lauren Woods,” the source said.
“They both wanted to avoid any speculation that he left Lauren for Kim – branding Kim a homewrecker.”
SCARED OF YE?
The insider added that Kim wanted to avoid any issues with her ex-husband Kanye as well, with whom she has four children – North, 10; Saint, 8; Chicago, 6; and Psalm, 4.
“After what Kanye put Pete Davidson through, Kim wants to avoid that at all costs,” they said.
“It is only a matter of time now before Kanye says something publicly, but he has no solid proof.”
Kanye publicly criticized Kim and comedian Pete’s relationship numerous times online during their romance in 2022.
The rapper claimed Pete – who he nicknamed “Skete” – was dead in a cruel Instagram hoax.
He also called Pete a “d**khead”, threatened to “beat his a**,” and accused the actor of trying to “destroy” his family in various rants.
The Kardashians star and former Saturday Night Live funnyman broke up in August 2022 after nine months of dating.
GRAMMYS DATE
Most recently, Kim and Odell were seen together at a party for the Grammys, according to Us Weekly.
Sources claimed the couple drove to the event together, but switched into two different cars before arriving.
They added that Odell is “low-key, while Kim’s more accustomed to the limelight.”
They are currently “trying to figure out the next steps” in their relationship, the source went on.
