Kim Kardashian recently sat down with Ellen DeGeneres and raved about reaching a new chapter in her life with Pete Davidson.

The chat happened just days after the reality star and fashion mogul, 41, went "Instagram official" with the 28-year-old "Saturday Night Live" cast member.

"I guess it's like not official until you post," Kardashian joked. The pair have been linked since October 2021, eight months after she filed for divorce from Kanye West.

Kardashian explained that she showed some restraint in the pics she posted: "I have the cutest pictures of us and I want to be like, 'Oh my God, we're so cute!'" she told DeGeneres. "But then I'm like, 'Don't be so desperate. Don't be posting so much, just give a glimpse.'"

The 41-year-old influencer added, "I haven't dated in since before Instagram existed ... I don't know what the rules are."

When DeGeneres told Kardashian that she seemed more at ease, the reality star agreed, saying, "I think it's just in life, no matter what it is, I just think I encourage my friends and the people that I love just to be happy. And I went for it. I went for it, I was like, 'You know what, I'm in my 40s, like, f--- it, sorry, just go for it. Find your happiness.'"
