Kim Kardashian has been a part of numerous failed relationships throughout her life, but she's not giving up on love. According to a Friday (March 3) report from PEOPLE, the socialite is feeling "ready" to start dating again after ending things with Pete Davidson in mid-2022. It sounds like her next beau could be very different from the men from her past.
When she was only 19 years old, the mother of four eloped with music producer Damon Thomas. Their divorce was finalized three years later, in 2003, at which time Kardashian was spending time with Ray J. During their relationship, the singer and model famously made a sex tape together, which was leaked in February 2007. As many have pointed out, this was the true catalyst for her inevitable rise to fame.
Kim's Romantic Past
As Us Weekly notes, Kardashian also spent time with two Nicks – Lachey and Cannon – before meeting long-term beau Reggie Bush. They were together on and off from 2007 to 2010. After that, the reality star stepped out with a handful of other stars before connecting with Kris Humphries. She and the athlete were engaged less than a year after meeting. While they went through with their wedding, it ended after just 72 days and wasn't settled until April 2013.
Kanye West is the man who came into the SKIMS founder's life next, and though their marriage also ultimately ended, they share four beautiful children together. Their split was publicly played out via the rapper's Instagram feed, but he's been far quieter on Instagram as of late. When Kimye went their separate ways, she found a spark with Davidson, but that burnt out after nine months.
Looking to the Future
After taking time off from romance to heal and focus on her family, Kardashian has formed a better idea of what she's looking for in a man. "Kim hasn't been dating, but is ready again," insiders told PEOPLE earlier this week. "She took a breather after Pete, but she is interested now. She would love to date someone who isn't famous in Hollywood. Someone in finance would be perfect."
Sources shared that the makeup mogul "has a lot of things going on that make her happy," and being able to share that with a partner would bring her joy. Who would you like to see Kim Kardashian date next? Let us know in the comments, and check back later for more pop culture news updates.
