If, like me, you’re nonetheless mourning Kim Kardashian and Pete Davidson’s break up, then this week’s episode of The Kardashians would possibly simply ease the ache a bit.
With every new instalment of Season 2, we’re hoping increasingly more for a cameo from our favourite Saturday Night time Reside alum, and whereas he didn’t seem this week — *cue boos from the gang* — we did get a bit perception into his and Kim’s lovable relationship.
So, in Episode Six, we comply with the Kardashian sisters as they hit the purple carpet for the present’s Season 1 premiere.
For those who can forged your thoughts again to April when the premiere passed off, you’ll keep in mind that Kim and Pete’s relationship was stronger than ever — they’d overcome their public feud with Kanye West, Pete had lately been photographed hanging out with Kim’s daughter, North — issues had been going properly.
After all, the subsequent logical step was for Kim and Pete to lastly make their purple carpet debut, and the Kardashians premiere appeared like the right place to do it.
Forward of the large night time, we went behind-the-scenes with Kim as she received prepared for the purple carpet with the assistance of her glam staff.
Additionally there to lend a serving to hand was producer Danielle King, who, from behind the digital camera, quizzed Kim on who her plus one is perhaps.
Throwing an eye-roll straight in direction of the digital camera in response, Kim reluctantly spills the tea. “Pete is definitely my plus one and I’m excited,” she says, a smile creeping throughout her face.
Eager to get solutions, Danielle proceeds to ask if this shall be their official purple carpet debut, prompting Kim to set the report straight.
“We’re not doing the purple carpet,” she says, earlier than occurring to clarify that she’ll be strolling alongside her sisters. “That is my factor, so he’s gonna help,” she provides.
However, though he wouldn’t be posing for the cameras subsequent to Kim, we shortly study that Pete will quickly be arriving at Kim’s to start out his personal glam course of.
As Mario works away at Kim’s make-up, a girl makes her approach by way of the room behind. “Hello, I’m Sydney!” she says as Kim greets her. “I’m grooming Pete.”
Barely a second after Sydney has left the room, Kim turns to Mario with a smirk on her face. “Who knew he was such a diva?” she jokes. “A grooming staff?! Styling staff? A tailor?!”
Being the organized queen she is, Kim will get again to enterprise and sends Pete a voicenote to tell him that it’s time to prepare. “Your styling staff is prepared for you for a becoming,” she says into her telephone.
“Isn’t that humorous,” she proceeds so as to add, earlier than dragging Pete’s notoriously laidback approach to purple carpet model. “I believed he’d go in a hoodie.”
In spite of everything that effort and time, Pete does attend the premiere — in a go well with, no much less — however opts to remain firmly on the sidelines with out showing on digital camera as soon as.
After all, for a lot of followers, the dearth of Pete content material, notably after we know he’s current whereas cameras are rolling, can really feel a bit irritating.
Nevertheless, as she has earlier than, Kim made the time on this week’s episode to supply followers a proof for her boyfriend’s noticeable absence.
“When the digital camera’s up for him, it’s like a skit or a task. It’s not what he does,” she explains in her confessional.

Talking of glimpses, Kim’s playful teasing wasn’t the one lovable little bit of perception we received into their relationship this week.
Earlier within the episode, we associate with Kim, Khloé, Kris, Kourtney, and Kendall as they prepare for his or her look on Jimmy Kimmel Live.
When the interview first aired again in April, Jimmy really put Kim on the spot, exposing her for a big supply she obtained earlier than the cameras began rolling.
“We needed to carry in an enormous bouquet of flowers that Pete despatched right here for you,” the host revealed, prompting an enormous smile from Kim.
And now, we’ve been given extra particulars about Pete’s candy gesture, together with the observe he left in Kim’s dressing room.
Whereas Kim frantically will get prepared, she suggests the digital camera crew get a video of her “cute flowers,” which brings us to a shot of an infinite bouquet of roses sitting on a espresso desk.
The digital camera then zooms in on a white card sitting in entrance of the flowers, which reads: “Congrats in your new present and season! I’m so extremely joyful for you and pleased with you!”
Nicely, if we weren’t lacking Kim and Pete sufficient already, this episode has me crossing my fingers for a reunion! And with studies that the pair are nonetheless “in contact,” there’s each purpose to stay hopeful.
