    Kim Kardashian and Pete Davidson were one of the most unexpected celebrity couples of all time. They were also one of the cutest, with Davidson getting multiple tattoo tributes to Kardashian during their relationship.

    According to People, Kardashian and Davidson briefly reconnected on Sunday, Feb. 17, when the pair attended a party following SNL 50: The Anniversary Special. The former couple were "spotted talking," but according to one of Davidson's friends, there's nothing romantic going on between them.

    Basically, anyone hoping the pair might give their relationship a second try is likely to be disappointed. "He has nothing but love and respect for Kim," the alleged friend told People. "He hopes everyone can move on."
