Khloe Kardashian taken aback by Kim Kardashian dating Pete Davidson after Kanye West split

Khloé Kardashian was as shocked as everyone else to see her older sister Kim Kardashian dating Saturday Night Live star Pete Davidson.

The reality TV star, 37, is said to have given the comic, 28, her seal of approval for her sister, 41, after months of the pair dating.

Earlier this week, Khloé was spotted heading to dinner with Kim and Pete and is said to like how Pete is "chill".

A source close to the star told Hollywood Life the Good American co-founder was "surprised" at her sister's new relationship following her split from Kanye West, but is happy with her choice of man.

The source said: "She was just as surprised as everyone else when she found out they were into each other. But she seriously couldn’t be happier.

"Khloé loves that Pete is super chill and down to earth. She gets along with him really well and thinks he’s absolutely hilarious.

"Khloé's so happy for Kim because she can see that Kim is happier than she’s been in a while."

The SKIMS founder started dating Pete in October after she hosted an episode of Saturday Night Live. During the show, the pair were involved in an Aladdin skit which saw the pair share a kiss.

Kim filed for divorce from rapper Kanye, 44, last February after almost seven years of marriage. The duo share four kids together: North, eight, Saint, six, Chicago, four, and Psalm, two.

Khloé's love life has also been in the news lately after father to her three-year-old daughter True, Tristan Thompson, was found to be the dad of another woman's child.

The basketball star, 30, had previously denied he was the father but a positive paternity test led to him apologising for his actions.

He took to his Instagram Story earlier in the month to write: "Today paternity test results reveal that I fathered a child with Maralee Nichols.

"I take full responsibility for my actions. Now that paternity has been established I look forward to amicably raising our son."

He went on to apologise to Khloé and anyone else who has been affected by the situation.

"I sincerely apologize to everyone I've hurt or disappointed throughout this ordeal both publicly and privately.

"Khloe, you don't deserve this. You don't deserve the heartache and humiliation I have caused you."

He continued: "You don't deserve the way I have treated you over the years. My actions certainly have not lined up with the way I view you."
