Kim Kardashian's boyfriend Pete Davidson 'joining Jeff Bezos on flight into space'

Pete Davidson is going to space with Amazon CEO Jeff Bezos - according to reports.

The comedian, 28, is said to be joining the billionaire on a Blue Origin flight after getting along swimmingly with the entrepreneur, 58, and his partner, Lauren Sanchez.

If the reports are true, the timing couldn't be better for Pete after his girlfriend's now ex-husband, Kanye West, 44, posted a disturbing video about the Saturday Night Live star.

In his new music video for his track Eazy, the Through the Wire star seems to 'kidnap and bury alive' Kim Kardashian's beau in scenes which sent shockwaves through the showbiz world.

However it looks like Pete is about to put a lot of distance between him and the father of four.

In January, Kim, 41 and the comic were invited to a cosy dinner party at Jeff's LA Estate.

And now a source reckons the sky's the limit for Pete as he's reportedly close to signing a deal with the billionaire, who sent Star Trek icon William Shatner into space in October.

They told Page Six: “Pete is excited. “They haven’t signed a contract yet, but it looks like it’s going to happen. The details are being finalised.

“He got on really well with Jeff when they met."

It’s not yet known when Pete would go into space, but it will likely be later this year, the source said.

The Mirror has contacted Pete's reps for comment.

The Saturday Night Live comic has had a bit of a baptism of fire since hooking with up with Kim following her performance on the comedy show.

Kanye has made his feelings about Pete perfectly clear, calling him, among other things, a d***head.

At one point Kim was worried someone would try and hurt the comic, telling Kanye it would be 'all his fault'.

However In news which sent shockwaves through Tinseltown, Kim was declared legally single this week after seven years of marriage to the artist now known as Ye.

Kim wanted to be declared legally single, even though financial and custody issues have yet to be resolved in the case - but the SKIMS founder has now had her wish granted.

The mum-of-four was expected to ask a judge to order her request, as Kanye didn’t want to be divorced and has made several attempts to win back his baby mama in recent weeks.

However, following their public slanging match – in which Kanye shared personal text messages between him and Kim on social media – the Stronger star made an unexpected U-turn.

In a statement to Hollywood Unlocked, Kayne said: “I’ve asked my team to expedite the dissolution of my marriage to Kim so I can put my entire attention into our beautiful children.”
