Why? Because Kanye West has shared a fake newspaper cover which claims Pete Davidson is dead.
And this has prompted Pete to go for therapy following the trolling.
The Stronger rapper has not directly addressed his ex-wife Kim Kardashian’s recent split from the Saturday Night Live (SNL) star – who he made multiple jibes at via his social media accounts in the early months of their relationship – but has targeted the comic with a cruel hoax.
The fake newspaper, a mock-up of the New York Times newspaper, shared to his Instagram account had the headline: “Skete Davidson Dead at Age 28”.
Pete, 28, has since opted to receive treatment after the ordeal, according to reports.
An insider also said Kardashian – who has daughter North, nine, son Saint, six, daughter Chicago, four, and son Psalm, three, with Ye – was “furious” about the post.
They said: “It’s another one of his outbursts and it’s not a joke to her. She doesn’t take his attacks lightly and demanded he take it down.”
West, 45, first came for Davidson in the lyrics of his song Eazy rapping: “God saved me from the crash so I can beat Pete Davidson’s a**” in January.
In February, the Gold Digga rapper began harassing the King of Staten Island star on Instagram, writing: “Hold your spouse close make sure they know how much you love and appreciate them because theres a Skete lurking in every dirty ass alley waiting to help destroy your family and walk around in Calvin Kleins around your children.”[sic]
He also wrote: “If you see Skete in real life scream at the looser at the top of your lungs and say Kimye forever (red broken heart emoji)”.[sic]
West later shared screen shots of a text exchange from his ex – who filed for divorce in January last year – pleading him with him to stop.
Kardashian said: “U are creating a dangerous and scary environment, and someone will hurt Pete and this will all be your fault.”
In the caption, Kanye wrote: “Upon my wife’s request please nobody do anything physical to Skete im going to handle the situation myself.”
Kanye West shares text message from Kim Kardashian, where she asks him to stop creating a dangerous environment for Pete Davidson.
