Hopefully we’re all caught up on the Kanye West/Kim Kardashian/Pete Davidson history because it looks like there’s been a new development. Fans think they’ve spotted some new ink on Davidson’s neck in honour of Kim and her kids.

On Friday, the comedian did some standup in Los Angeles as part of the Netflix is a Joke: The Festival event at the Fonda Theatre in Hollywood.

After the show, he and Kim K were seen getting into an SUV where photographers were snapping shots of the couple, and some cameras caught glimpses of what seemed to be a new tattoo on the comedian’s neck.

Fans took to the internet and put their best investigative skills to use and came to the conclusion that the tattoo on Pete Davidson’s neck was a set of initials. Many other fans theorised that the initials — which seem to be KNSCP — stand for Kim, North, Saint, Chicago, and Psalm.

While there’s no confirmation that that’s actually what the tattoo says and means, it certainly looks like those letters, and it certainly seems plausible that if it was those letters, that’s what they would stand for.

This also wouldn’t be the first time he’s gotten a tattoo in Kim’s honour. One tattoo on Pete Davidson’s chest reads ‘my girl is a lawyer’, which comes after Kim K has been studying at law school since 2019.

Another — well, not a tattoo, but actually a branding — is on the other side of Davidson’s chest, reading simply ‘Kim’.

If Davidson really did get all the initials of Kim’s kids tattooed on his neck in descending order of age, it would certainly be telling of how close he has become to Kim’s family and how much he has actually hung out with them — he must care about them enough to actually get a tattoo in their honour.

Since Kanye West has been out of the spotlight lately, it’s not clear how he feels about this situation, but since he’s previously made a big fuss over the kids meeting Pete, it’s possible that this may not go down too well for the family.
