“Princess Diana would have dated Pete Davidson.Pete Davidson spotted with the ‘Oy Mista! You Me Dad?’ Doll.” Just some of the fictional but perfectly plausible relationships fans believe Pete Davidson could have. And they’re not wrong. There’s something about Pete, and Emily Ratajkowski has offered a valuable and important insight as to why he’s got this universal appeal.

With his new girlfriend Kim K and a string of varied and wonderful exes (Kate Beckinsale, Phoebe D, Kaia Gerber and Ariana, hi!), Pete, 27, has never had any trouble in the charm department. Or partner department. It was only when he was engaged to Ariana in 2018 (and during their whirlwind and very public romance( that it was established that Pete had BDE (big d*ck energy, acronym fans), but things have progressed since then, and it’s the whole package. A package within a package, if you will. According to model/actress/famous person Emily Ratajkowski.

Emily and Pete worked together on an ad campaign for Canadian brand Moose Knuckles (actually a thing) for photographer David LaChapelle earlier this year. In an interview with US talk show host Seth Meyers, Emily revealed the secret to Pete’s allure is, well, him being Pete. On the modelling shoot they did together Emily said he was 'pretty hard on himself.'

'I think he’s great,' she explained. “He’s a professional. First of all, you should know that about Pete. He’s got the height. Obviously women find him very attractive.' And she said she reckoned guys are totally flummoxed by how he gets the girls. Guys, come ON. 'Guys are like, "Wow, what’s that guy got?’” she said. 'And I’m like, I mean, he seems super charming. He’s vulnerable. He’s lovely. His fingernail polish is awesome. He looks good!' She also added that Pete has a 'good relationship with his mother. We love it, that’s hard to find.'

That’s all well and good and nice, but the BDE definitely helps.
