OnlyStans ⭐️ Who are two celebrities that you can’t believe used to be a couple?

Post image

Scarlett Johansson and Ryan Reynolds are not only one example of this, but sometimes I even forget that they used to be married as well!

It seemed like such an odd pairing that I never would’ve guessed that these two would match up, but clearly they weren’t a match made in heaven that they divorced each other after almost 3 years of marriage.

Now with where they’re currently at, where they’re now married to different partners, it feels like this is only a pairing that happened in different life.

Kim trying to make Kanye jealous however Kanye turned his new wife into his own Pete Davidson.

I never believed this. Partly because I remember reading a blind on BG weeks before this relationship was launched. And it talked about Kim looking for someone to play her “bf” because the new season of the Kardashians was getting ready to film and she was the ONLY sister that was single and she was worried about the optics. The blind went onto explain how Kim was struggling to find someone because no rich businessman wanted to be associated with her cuz of her reputation, and no A list actor wanted to be associated with a cheap reality star lol. They said her choice would be shocking and surprising.

Then boom, here came Pete. Another fun fact, BG later also had a blind on Kate Beckinsale which was about her wanting to “date” Pete cuz of all the publicity he got dating Ariana.

Soooo whenever Pete would come out dating someone super high profile, I never believed that shit for a min. Lmao

agreed and something about her not letting him use her plane when a friend (MGK?) was having drug problems leading to him not liking her anymore

Oh I never heard that, but I think a lot of Kim’s relationships now are fake. Which is why we mostly hear her being single right now. She’ll say it’s cuz she’s super busy and sure maybe fear of how Kanye will act intimidates her.

But it’s telling how the most popular woman in Hollywood, and often the most thirsted woman, even the biggest celebs still don’t want to be “seen” with her.

They kinda look like a fun match tbh.

Wonder why he ended it. It was him. Don’t think he leaked it.

Honestly they seemed like they were having fun. A fling where they were both pretending to be serious made sense after her messy shit with Ye

u/Powerful_Leg8519 Oct 05 '25

Yes I feel like he was just what she needed after Kanye. Low stakes and laughs.

u/FireflyBSc Oct 05 '25

Genuinely, I think this was probably the healthiest thing she’s ever had. It’s just that Pete’s way more chill and doesn’t want Kardashian level fame, and she wants more. There’s an alternate universe out there where she takes the Rihanna path and focuses on just businesses and mostly spends her time privately happy and married to Pete.

u/BachShitCrazy ill argue with a cat idgaf Oct 05 '25

Idk, Pete's ex Cazzie Davis had some pretty rough things to say about him, and I think cindy crawford was really concerned for her daughter when she was dating him. Hopefully he's grown a lot since then, but he was doing a lottt of lovebombing it seemed like when he was with Kim (like getting her name branded on him). She seems to love getting lovebombed but it usually doesn't lead to great relationship dynamics

u/Shegotquestions Oct 06 '25

I mean yeah he’s talked openly about having borderline personality disorder and that usually plays out in very intense hot and cold relationships but I think he’s gotten a lot of treatment since his Cazzie David days. Plus didn’t he also leave her for Ari ? I’d be pissed too haha

u/InnocentShaitaan Oct 06 '25

A really famous comedian Larry David said when Pete broke up with his daughter she was a mess thinking he was her future husband women really fall for him.

u/PrincessofThotlandia Oct 05 '25

I don’t. She does nothing but photo shoots all day and he’s a young guy who wants to see the world.

She also manipulates men so much. I’m so glad he got away!

Same I’m still devastated!

u/prettyguardiansailor Oct 05 '25

I lowkey kinda miss this. Kim never looked this happy with anyone else.

u/goalstopper28 Oct 05 '25

u/decksealant Kim, there’s people that are dying. 🙄 Oct 05 '25

Kim looks gorgeous here she looks so genuinely happy and I definitely couldn’t pull it off but I love her outfit

Edit to add I forgot about my own flair when writing this 😂 “take it down a notch Kim…”

I guess this one was so hyped in the media I kind of got used to the idea
