No, Kim Kardashian and Maluma aren’t dating so we can all calm down now
Kim Kardashian isn’t dating Maluma, so we can all calm down now.
The rumour-mill started spinning with speculation the Keeping Up With The Kardashians star, 40, had moved on with the Hawai singer, 27, following her divorce from Kanye West.
After they were pictured partying together this weekend in Miami – alongside Victoria and David Beckham and Pharrell Williams – fans were convinced there was something between them.
Right on cue, people rushed to discuss the photos on Twitter, excitedly shipping the pair.
‘Am I the only one who thinks @maluma and @KimKardashian would make the most adorable couple!?!? I loved their Miami pics together,’ a follower commented.
‘Kim Kardashian and Maluma would be so sexy together,’ a fan agreed.
A Twitter user said: ‘@KimKardashian and @maluma!!! That needs to happen!!’
As another posted: ‘I’m very into the idea of Kim Kardashian and Maluma as a couple.’
However, insiders poured ice cold water on all the speculation, insisting their interaction was just ‘friendly’.
Insisting they were just ‘happy to see each other’, a source told Page Six: ‘They are just friends and have lots of mutual friends in common. It’s nothing romantic.’
While another added that the singer is ‘happily single’.
There might have been some very awkward conversations between the two if anything romantic was to happen – as Maluma previously stated that Kim’s sister, Kendall Jenner, is his celebrity crush.
Which may lead to some cringe moments around the dinner table…
‘Everybody knows that my celebrity crush is Kendall Jenner,’ he previously told Access Hollywood.
‘I’m going to say it again, she’s my crush!’
Kim also has a lot on her plate right now, after filing to end her marriage to Kanye in February, six years after they tied the knot.
The former couple reportedly agreed to joint custody, making sure to put their children, North, Saint, Chicago and Psalm first.
‘Kim and Kanye are getting along,’ a source told People. ‘They have both stayed true to their commitment to make the best situation for the kids.
‘Kim is very happy that they have managed to keep things calm. She thinks Kanye is a good dad.
‘She wants him to be able to spend as much time with the kids as he wants.’
‘For every week that goes by since she filed for divorce, Kim seems happier,’ they added. ‘She knows that filing for divorce was the right decision. The kids are doing as good as she could hope.’
Metro.co.uk has contacted reps for Kim and Maluma for a comment.
