Kim Kardashian is happy that her ex is getting the help that he needs, it has been claimed.

The reason Pete has asked for help is that he has been a target of Kim’s other ex, rapper Kanye West, on social media.
The musician posted on Instagram a fake The New York Times cover that said Skete Davidson Dead at 28.
The post is a form of bullying and it has not been the first time West has threatened Davidson. In April Kanye showed a claymation version of Pete being buried alive.
‘Kanye was very detrimental. He was posting negative things — now add thousands and thousands of comments. Someone has to work with you to deal with something like that,’ the source added.

West’s fans have also sent Pete death threats.
‘Getting death threats from [Kanye’s] fans and all the negative attention online doesn’t feel good for the average person — add someone who’s struggled with mental illness, and it’s even worse,’ another source shared.
A source has also told DailyMail.com that Kim was ‘livid’ that West has been tormenting Davidson.

This comes a day after DailyMail.com revealed the Keeping Up With The Kardashians veteran did not split with the funnyman because he was ‘immature.’

A source told People magazine: ‘The attention and negativity coming from Kanye and his antics is a trigger for [Pete], and he’s had to seek out help.’
The insider added: ‘[Pete] has no regrets for dating Kim and wants it to be made very clear that she’s been nothing but supportive of him throughout their relationship… Moving forward he just wants to focus on his career.’
