Pete Davidson is going through a difficult period, months after splitting from his billionaire ex, Kim Kardashian.
The former Saturday Night Live star suffered a meltdown while working on his latest TV project. According to a report from The Sun, the 28-year-old actor threw candles, a coffee, and a TV in his trailer during the alleged mental episode.
The Staten Island, New York native is currently filming the new comedy series Bupkis, a fictional look at his life, also starring Edie Falco as his mother and Joe Pesci.
The program will air on the Peacock network. The incident reportedly occurred on Thursday, and the actor was not seen on set Friday.
An insider shared with the publication: “Pete had a meltdown on the set Thursday evening. Pete threw two candles through his trailer and damaged a second truck’s windshield. He also threw coffee on the walls and folded a TV in half inside his trailer. Apparently, Pete’s been given some time off to get his s**t together and focus on himself.”
There is no police report about the alleged incident. Moreover, it is not clear what was behind the tension. It is possible that Kardashian may reach out to the funnyman after the story grabbed headlines.
The exes are reportedly still on good terms, and they are in contact with each other.
Another source told the same media outlet: “They do still talk a lot, they are good friends and laugh a lot – he’s holding in there and tells her that he would jump on a plane at a moment’s notice for her.”
The person continued: “But Kim thinks life is just too messy now, and she doesn’t want anything serious right now – while he clearly does. She doesn’t want to string him along; she doesn’t want to do that and give him hope there’s a chance when she knows there’s not.”
The reality TV icon, a mother of four young children trying to become a lawyer and run several successful businesses, has a lot on her plate.
Her ex-husband, Kanye West, spent months going after her, his former in-laws, and Davidson on social media. Now, he is embroiled in controversies over the anti-Semitic comments he made.
While he has apologized for the remarks, he lost close $2 billion in net worth in less than two weeks.
Kardashian is trying her best to navigate this crisis without hurting her own brand. She has reportedly cut ties with the Yeezy founder.
The two exes still have a divorce to finalize.
