KIM Kardashian admitted she feared fans would think she was “desperate” if she posted photos of her and her boyfriend Pete Davidson.
The 41-year-old opened up about the pair’s whirlwind romance in a new interview with Ellen DeGeneres on her talk show on Wednesday.
After starting up a relationship late last year, Kim finally made things social media official when she shared a photo of the two of them together on Instagram.
While appearing as a guest on Ellen’s talk show, the host congratulated Kim on taking that big step with Pete.
She replied: “Thank you. I guess it’s not official until you post, yeah?”
Ellen asked Kim why she felt like now was the right time to share some coupled-up photos, wondering if she felt like she had to just “get it out of the way.”

Unable to contain her smile, the mother of four explained: “No, I have the cutest pictures of us, and I wanna be like, ‘Oh my God, we’re so cute.’
“But then I’m like, ya know, ‘Don’t be so desperate, don’t be posting so much, just give a glimpse.’”
Though she admitted she was worried about looking “desperate” to her fans, she ultimately realized she had no clue what the “right thing to do” was in this situation and just went with it.
“I haven’t dated since, like, before Instagram existed,” Kim said. “So, I don’t know what the rules are.”
No matter what, Ellen said she just wanted Kim to be “happy” and that it looked like she was.
She told the reality star: “You deserve to be happy. And I’m happy that you’re happy.”
Kim told the host that her new relationship just “feels good.”
“I see a shift in you, and an ease,” Ellen told her. “A whole different side…It’s a different you.”
The 41-year-old explained that she had to go after what she wanted because she’d always told those around her to do the same.
She said: “I encourage my friends and people that I love just to be happy, and I went for it.
“I was like, ‘You know what, I’m in my 40s. F**k it. Just go for it. Find your happiness.’
“And I went for it, and I took my time, and I found it. And it feels so good. And I want to hold onto it forever.”
Recently, a shirtless picture of Pete in bed had fans talking after they noticed Kim’s name appeared to be tattooed on his chest.
During her Ellen interview, Kim revealed he was actually branded with her name but also has three tattoos for her.
“He has a few tattoos. A few cute ones, you know, that he got,” she shared.
While clarifying that the chest design isn’t actually a tattoo, she said: “It’s actually a branding. He wanted to do something that was really different.”
Speaking of the branding, Kim added: “I think he was like, ‘I want something that’s there that I can’t, you know, get rid of.’
“…’So he’s like, ‘I don’t wanna be able to get rid of it or to cover it up and I just wanted it like there as a scar on me.'”
