‘She was happy and smiley,’ an insider said, and while Kim exited through the front of Zero Bond, Pete opted to go through a back door.
And a source close to Kim exclusively told DailyMail.com Pete is ‘very aggressive’ with her as he often ‘grabs her waist, compliments her butt and touches her hair’ when they are together.
‘He is extremely sexual and in her face. He is making it crystal clear he likes her,’ the confidant said. ‘He definitely is not being aloof or playing coy, he is just going for it. And she seems to be loving the attention. It’s nice to see her happy.’
Pete — whose exes include Ariana Grande, Kate Beckinsale, Kaia Gerber and Phoebe Dynevor — made light of the dating rumors while promoting his new show, The Freak Brothers, on Late Night with Seth Meyers on Monday evening.

‘I want to address something. I feel like I want to confirm if it’s real,’ Seth said, referring to his various sightings with Kim.
Cutting in, Pete joked: ‘There’s a lot of people I walk by, people are like whispering, and, you know, making eyes at me. And, you know, but it is true. I do have a show on Tubi coming out.’
Kim launched SKIMS in 2019 and she was included in Forbes magazine’s World’s Billionaires list for the first time this year, which cites her businesses, KKW Beauty and SKIMS, as well as cash from reality TV and endorsement deals for her vast wealth.
Kim’s worth increased from $780 million last October to $1 billion after she cashed in on KKW Beauty by selling 20 percent of the business to Coty for $200 million.
Pete joined the cast of SNL in the 40th season at the age of 20 as one of the youngest cast members, and has since earned a spot on the Forbes 30 Under 30 list in addition to a host of movie and television roles and accolades.
