Inside Kim Kardashian’s bizarre love triangle with Kanye West and Pete Davidson
ONLY a month ago, Kanye West was all loved up with actress Julia Fox.
He appeared to have finally moved on from his wife Kim Kardashian, who is now in a relationship with comedian Pete Davidson.
But in a strange U-turn, the rap superstar has split from Julia and created one of the most public love triangles of all time.
He is desperately pleading with Kim to reunite, almost a year to the day she filed for divorce.
But hopes of a Kimye reunion appear to be hanging by a thread after he lavished her with the gift of a pick-up truck filled with roses on Valentine’s Day, while infuriating her with dangerous comments on Instagram.
He had called for fans to attack Pete, who he refers to as “Skete,” and accused him of walking “around in Calvin Kleins” in front of his four kids.
Despite trying to win her back with a public display of affection, Ye then angered Kim even more by sharing screenshots of her messages in which she begged him to keep the matter private.
In the early hours of yesterday, he shared a photo of a man with another in a headlock and wrote: “Upon my wife’s request please nobody do anything physical to Skete. I’m going to handle the situation myself.”

She thanked him for the post, but after seeing the personal texts on his Instagram account, hit back: “Why can’t you keep any of our conversations private???” In an even stranger reply, Kanye wrote: “Cause I got a text from my favourite person in the world. I’m your number one fan. Why wouldn’t I tell everyone!!!!”
Kim then showed Kanye what he was missing when she shared photos of herself in her Skims lingerie, having spent the weekend in New York with Pete.
The latest twist came just hours after a representative for actress Julia confirmed they had split up following a six-week romance. Julia then claimed she would be writing a book with all of the stories from the 44 days they spent together. She told fans on social media: “Why not see me for what I am, which is a #1 hustler?
“I have love for him but I wasn’t in love with the man. Jesus Christ, what do you guys think I am, 12 years old?! Anyway, if you want the full tea you’re gonna have to buy the book when it comes out.”
The embarrassing timing of it all meant that just as their split was announced, an interview came out in the US where she talked about their relationship. She has barely shut up about it since they got together and admitted it could be “very difficult”. Well, that’s no surprise.
Last night Kanye appeared to have a change of tack. He wrote: “I know sharing screen shots was jarring and came off as harassing Kim.
I know sharing screen shots was jarring and came off as harassing Kim.

“I take accountability. I’m still learning in real time. I don’t have all the answers. To be a good leader is to be a good listener.”
The whole situation is a ridiculous drama and although fans may want Kim and Kanye to get back together, his actions are pushing her further and further away.
That said, I am not sure Pete is the man for her either, going by his list of failed showbiz romances with Ariana Grande, Kate Beckinsale, Kaia Gerber and Phoebe Dynevor.
Kanye is famous for having these outbursts at convenient times. I have no doubt his latest cry for attention is partly just a bid to get people to listen to his new album Donda 2, which is due next Tuesday.
But he also appears to be trying to divert attention away from the first part of Jeen-Yuhs, Netflix’s docuseries on him, which launches today.
ALEX ON A BUMPY HIDE
ALEXANDRA BURKE has announced she is five months pregnant – but you wouldn’t guess it judging by these photos.
She hid her bump better than Rihanna before revealing the surprise news.
Alexandra is expecting her first child with boyfriend Darren Rudolph, who is a goalie for West Ham.
The Broken Heels singer wore this baby pink outfit with heels as she strolled out to a restaurant with the footballer during a date night in London on Valentine’s Day.
Alexandra shared a video of them, with news of the pregnancy and that the baby is due in June.
She had been due to return with new music this year after heading into the studio in the autumn. That may have to wait for now – but having a baby is a fair excuse.
DUA: MY SHAPE SECRET
DUA LIPA is in amazing shape. But unlike Victoria Beckham, who eats the same meal every day, the Levitating singer’s top tip is a bit more palatable.
Spilling the secret of her slender figure on her podcast At Your Service, Dua explained: “I don’t eat after 6pm.
“When I eat really late my body does not really work through and it takes too long to process food. I drink a lot of water for my skin. I take vitamins, I take Omega 3. I fast. I feel like, with my skin, it helps.”
She also opened up about her career and said she lived her life by an old adage from her family.
The singer, whose parents are Kosovo-Albanians, said: “There is a saying in Albanian, ‘Never leave today’s work for tomorrow’. I live by it. I see my job as a 24-hour job.
“For as long as I have butterflies and as much as it scares me going on stage, I know I am in the right place.”
HOL LOT OF PAIN
SPIDER-MAN actor Tom Holland says he’s lucky to have any teeth left after his latest film Uncharted.
During the movie, in which he stars as a treasure hunter alongside Mark Wahlberg and Antonio Banderas, Tom’s character Nathan Drake wears a ring around his neck that belonged to distant relative Francis Drake.
But while it serves as a charm for Nathan, in real life it almost knocked out Tom’s gnashers. He said: “We had to get a rubber one made because during the fight scenes it kept whacking me in the teeth.
“Honestly it really hurt. I had to say to the props master, ‘Can you make me a rubber one?’ I’d turn round and punch someone and it would bounce up crack me right in the teeth. I’m lucky I’ve got teeth.”
COLDPLAY’S ALIEN FORCE
I HAVE long believed Coldplay‘s music is out of this world – and now frontman Chris Martin appears to agree with me.
Insiders have revealed the band are using aliens to help promote their new Music Of The Spheres world tour, which is due to start on March 18 in Costa Rica.
A source said: “Chris and the band seem to want to make this next tour their wackiest yet. They have applied to trademark, ‘Everyone is an alien somewhere,’ and will plaster it across their merchandise when they hit the road.
“Previously they used the slogan when teasing the album last year and it went down so well they want to use it on the tour.”
The band, also made up of Guy Berryman, Jonny Buckland and Will Champion, will go on to tour across the US before returning to Europe in July.
Their first gig in the UK is at London’s Wembley Arena on August 12, where they will play six nights. The merchandise isn’t the only out-there thing about this tour.
Last year, Coldplay revealed they would be trying to make their gigs as environmentally friendly as possible and the band are introducing a series of measures to help keep them green.
The shows will be powered by solar energy, waste cooking oil and kinetic stadium floors.
