We all have resolutions. Resolutions to stop doing this or start doing that. Resolutions to be somehow harder, better, faster, stronger. Resolutions to return to the resolution question around April. The modern world is set up so that even abstaining from resolutions on anti-personal-growth terms is still a resolution somehow. Some will succeed and some will fail, but good news: If your resolution was to finally—finally—keep up with the Kardashians, boy is this the week to do it. There is a lot going on in that family.
Kim Kardashian, the woman who has vindicated middle children everywhere and is also in the process of divorcing Kanye “Ye” West, the father of her four children, has been dating comedian Pete Davidson. It began in October after Kardashian role-played a workplace comedy at Davidson’s office, Saturday Night Live, for a week. At that time, it was wild, it was crazy, it was shocking that the queen of Calabasas was hanging out with the king of Staten Island, Davidson’s home borough.
Now, however, they’re getting into some of the more trenchant story lines of regular couples. Their first trip off the continental United States together took them to the Bahamas. He traveled there on Monday after spending the weekend in Miami, where he helped host an NBC New Year’s show with Miley Cyrus (whom Kardashian has reportedly unfollowed).
This trip coincided with the unfortunate news that Tristan Thompson—Kardashian’s sister Khloé’s ex-boyfriend and father of her daughter, True—is indeed the father of fitness model Maralee Nichols’s baby, though he previously denied it. Before Thompson published an apology on Instagram (“You don’t deserve the way I have treated you over the years. My actions certainly have not lined up with the way I view you. I have the utmost respect and love for you. Regardless of what you may think. Again, I am so incredibly sorry.”), he reportedly sent nearly 100 red roses to True, who is a toddler.
Kardashian also supposedly posted this photo of herself with her sister and their children for support.

Meanwhile, West was in Miami for New Year’s where he is apparently dating indie upstart and jewel of Canal Street, Julia Fox. She wore leather pants on the beach over the weekend, which might be the most notable thing in this recap of the Kardashian orbit this week, but it doesn’t require commentary, just noting. They went to Carbone in Miami for New Year’s, and then Tuesday night they went to Carbone in New York to compare and contrast what different climates do to ragu recipes I guess.
Prior to dinner, they saw Jeremy O. Harris’s record-setting Tony-nominated work of theater Slave Play. In the play, three Black partners work through their anger and resentments toward their white partners, one of whom refuses to see himself as white, through sexual slavery role play while guided by an interracial lesbian couple in group therapy. They probably had a lot to talk about over the spicy rigatoni, especially since Harris reportedly joined them. (West went to see Hamilton in 2016 with Kardashian.)
How did Ye and Fox meet? What makes them “kindred spirits,” as one anonymous source told Page Six they were over the weekend? Couldn’t possibly say without gathering more evidence, but one thing is true: Dating Ye is a nice trump card over the father of Fox’s infant son whom the actor called out as “dead beat dad” on her Instagram before the holidays. (He told Page Six that Fox’s accusations were false.) And Ye? The man who has reportedly only dated a couple models since splitting from Kardashian? Well, there is this:
