During his standup, Pete, 30, confessed he was high on Ketamine during Aretha Franklin’s funeral in August 2018.

The former Saturday Night Live star shared: “I was on a drug for the past two and a half, three years called Ketamine. What a time.

“It’s embarrassing when you’re not on ketamine anymore, though…I’m embarrassed. I was out and about like that.”

He joked: “I was at Aretha Franklin’s funeral like that. Yeah, I have to live with that.”

Pete continued: “I had to stop doing hard drugs because [you] can’t be a drug addict in your 30s, you know?”

“Doing drugs in your 20s is fine. It’s like an excuse. You’re like: ‘I’m finding myself.’ It’s cute, you know?”

The funnyman was 29 years old when he dated Kim, now 43.

THE BACKLASH

In an online thread, critics assumed the comic used the dissociative anesthetic during their nine-month-long relationship.

One critic sarcastically said: “Oh my word, somebody in Hollywood was high around children? Say it ain’t so!”

Another critic added: “I wouldn’t want him driving my kid around, but I definitely think there are different levels of how messed up he couldn’t been.”

A third critic mentioned: “Children should not be left in the care of someone who is under the influence of horse tranquilizer, therapeutic or otherwise.”

A fourth person wrote: “UGH! Sounds like Kim put the kids in a dangerous situation.”

A commentator chimed: “Gross. What if your boyfriend came to visit you, and you’re with your kids?

“Where would Kim run off to? Would she leave Pete with her kids unsupervised? So I hope took the nannies and all her security too.

Kim and Kanye West, 45, share their four kids: daughters North, nine, and Chicago, five, and sons Saint, seven, and Psalm, four.

THE RELATIONSHIP HISTORY

Pete and Kim shared their first kiss in October 2021 when she hosted the variety show and starred in a Disney-inspired skit with him.

Although the couple attended the May 2022 Met Gala together, they eventually split at the beginning of August 2023.

The exes decided to remain friends.

According to E! News, an insider close to the exes stated at the time: “They have a lot of love and respect for each other.”

At the time, the source said that they couldn’t handle their busy schedules and the long-distance relationship, adding: “It made it really difficult to maintain a relationship.”

As the romance between Kim and Pete heated up, Ye voiced his disdain toward the comedian in several posts.

In January 2022, the rapper threatened to “kick Pete Davidson’s a**,” in a new diss track.
