Pete Davidson and Kate Beckinsale aren’t likely to ‘get too serious’ since they live ‘on opposite coasts’

Don’t get too attached to the idea of Pete Davidson and Kate Beckinsale as a couple … An insider tells Us Weekly the pair’s recent nights out together are just two people enjoying each other’s company, not testing the waters for a long-term romance. “[Pete’s] thing with Kate is fun,” says the source. “He thinks she’s cool. They’re on opposite coasts though, so don’t count on it getting too serious.” Kate, 45, and Pete, 25, have been spending time together since they were spotted flirting at a Golden Globes afterparty last month. Since then, the two have stepped out in New York City together a number of times. “It’s no surprise she likes Pete — he makes her laugh. Kate is a lot of fun and loves embracing her youthful side,” another source told Us recently. “She’s always the life of the party and likes going out, dancing and hanging out around young people at hip places.” Pete, who split from his fiancee, Ariana Grande, last year, isn’t doing much to tamp down the romance rumors, either. When someone hollered Kate’s name out at his show in the Hudson Valley last month, he simply smiled and said “yes.” “Pete is doing great … doing a lot of stand-up … [and] focused on his upcoming Judd Apatow film,” says the first source. “He’s really happy.” Ariana, by the way, seems to be happy for him, too. Stopped by a TMZ cameraman this week and asked what she thought of Pete and Kate as a couple, the singer gushed, “so cute!”
