Kim Kardashian and Pete Davidson spark reunion rumours with cosy Met Gala display

Fans are convinced Kim Kardashian and Pete Davidson have reunited, despite splitting nine months ago.

The pair sent the rumour mill into overdrive after they were spotted looking cosy at Monday night's Met Gala.

The former lovers were snapped at the event's lavish dinner party in New York as they became engrossed in a conversation, albeit in the presence of Usher.

In a series of snaps shared from the Met Gala's after party, 29-year-old Pete gave Kim his full attention as she spoke and it seems like things weren't at all awkward for the two exes.

Pete appeared to only have eyes for the SKIMS mogul as he beamed intently while she spoke to the singer.

The pictures have been widely shared by fans on social media, with many speculating that their romance might be back on.

Another fan pointed out how Kim and Pete were likely comfortable with each other, as they ended their relationship on good terms.

The pair, who previously walked the 2022 Met Gala together, "decided to just be friends" after struggling with their demanding work schedules.
