“Pete is Colson’s boy, so as long as he’s happy and in a healthy relationship with someone who treats him with respect, then he’s all for it,” the insider revealed to HL. “Colson knows that Pete has a very public dating history, and it looks like this is going to be no different.” Pete has previously been linked to Ariana Grande, Kate Beckinsale, Phoebe Dynevor, and, well, a lot more women!

Things have definitely been heating up between Pete and Kim since they became “better friends” while working on their Aladdin skit for the SNL episode Kim recently hosted.
