Kim Kardashian teases new romance with mystery man after Pete Davidson breakup

Keeping up with Kim Kardashian’s dating life just got even harder.

The reality star hinted at a new relationship with a mystery man, nicknamed “Fred,” in a promo for next week’s “Kardashians” episode.

“My friends wanted me to meet someone,” she told Scott Disick in the clip, which Hulu released Thursday.

Kardashian, 42, laughed when Disick, 40, proposed the secret moniker.

“Let’s call this guy ‘Fred,'” the Talentless creator said. “Does he meet the standards?”

The Skims founder replied, “Oh, so meets the standards!”

Later in the preview, Kardashian was caught on camera texting and smiling during a confessional.

Davidson, who has since moved on with his “Bodies Bodies Bodies” co-star Chase Sui Wonders, occasionally appeared on the show during their romance.

In Thursday’s episode, Kardashian explained why the comedian, 29, mostly remained off-camera.

“It’s hard when you start dating someone and you’re on a reality show, so Pete and I had that conversation right away,” she recalled. “He was on at what level he was comfortable with.”

Kardashian also clapped back at haters’ claims that her ex-husband Kanye West is a “non-presence” when filming.

“It’s not that I’m unwilling; it’s that my ex didn’t want to be on a reality show. You can’t film with someone that’s not a cast member, that doesn’t have aspirations of being on a reality show,” she said, noting that she will still address their “co-parenting struggles” on the series.
