Pete Davidson's struggle with mental health: Pete Davidson has been vocal about his struggle with mental health in the past. Earlier he had revealed his struggle with Borderline Personality Disorder and how he felt a weight being lifted off of his shoulders when he was finally diagnosed in 2017.  

Did the therapy lead to the breakup? People reported citing a source close to Kardashian that Davidson's trauma therapy has nothing to do with their recent breakup. 

The breakup: Kim Kardashian and Pete Davidson parted ways after nine months of dating. Reports say that the duo's busy schedules and the fact that they were living in two separate cities were the reasons behind their breakup. 

Kanye West strikes again: As for Kanye West, the rapper did not leave the opportunity to take a dig at Pete Davidson on Instagram. On August 8, Monday, like old times, he posted a mock New York Times newspaper headline that read, "Skete Davidson dead at age 28." Skete is the nickname Kanye West gave Pete Davidson.

At the bottom of the image is another sentence that also reads, "Kid Cudi meant to play funeral but fearful of bottle throwers." This was in reference to an incident at a music festival last month when rapper Kid Cudi walked off the stage after fans started throwing objects at him. 

Kid Cudi also used to collaborate with Kanye West before the latter ended their friendship publicly over the former's links to Pete Davidson. 

The Instagram post has since been deleted. It had appeared as Kanye West's sole Instagram post after the American rapper deleted all posts following backlash over his online harassment of Pete Davidson during the latter's relationship with Kim Kardashian.
