Martha Stewart has spoken out after social media users started to suggest that she might be romantically involved with Pete Davidson.
Last week, Saturday Night Live comedian Davidson made headlines when it was announced that he had split from his reality TV star girlfriend Kim Kardashian.
But while Davidson's dalliance with the Skims guru may have come to an end, many people have been speculating that he's already moved on with another woman.
After a snap of him holding hands with 81-year-old media personality Stewart went viral on social media, rumors began circulating that the pair were romantically entangled.
In the photo, Davidson, Stewart, and Kardashian are posing for the cameras at the White House Correspondents’ Association Dinner in April.
Eagle-eyed fans noticed that Davidson looked just as cozy with Stewart as with his then-girlfriend Kardashian, pointing out that the two were holding hands tightly.
"We should’ve seen this coming," one person captioned the snap.
Others were just chomping at the bit to see the relationship become official:
But despite the speculation, Stewart has put the rumors to bed. In an interview with the Daily Mail, she made it clear that she saw Davidson as more of a son than a lover.
"Pete Davidson is like the son I never had," she told the outlet, adding: "He is a charming boy who is finding his way."
Davidson and Kardashian dated for nine months but announced they were going their separate way earlier this month. A source cited busy schedules and the pressures of long distances as among the reasons for the split.
"They have a lot of love and respect for each other, but found that the long distance and their demanding schedules made it really difficult to maintain a relationship," they told PageSix.
Prior to his tryst with the reality TV star, Davidson was briefly engaged to singer Ariana Grande. He also had brief flings with Bridgerton star Phoebe Dynevor and actor Kate Beckinsale.
Stewart, meanwhile, was married for 26 years to publisher Andrew Stewart. Since they split in 1990, she has been involved with billionaire Charles Simonyi, who she dated on and off for 15 years before they went their separate ways in 2008.
