It apparently didn’t take long for Kylie Jenner to get over the heartbreak of her breakup from Travis Scott to start dating again.
But maybe sliding into an alleged new romance with another high-powered entertainment figure was easy because the 22-year-old reality TV star and cosmetics mogul has known the guy for a long time — since she was a teenager.
Both Us Weekly and People are reporting that the new guy in Jenner’s life is none other than Drake, the 33-year-old rapper and serial dater of various women, famous and otherwise.
“Kylie and Drake’s friendship did take a romantic turn recently,” a source told Us Weekly. “At his Halloween party, they were affectionate and clearly there together. They’ve been seeing each other romantically. He also showed up to Kendall (Jenner)’s birthday.”
Us Weekly also reported that the “Keeping Up With the Kardashians” star and the four-time Grammy winner were “flirty” with each other at his 33rd birthday party in Los Angeles in October.
“She spent the most time near Drake and his friends,” an “insider” told Us at the time. “Kylie was rapping to songs and dancing with her friends while she was next to Drake, but they weren’t dancing together. They seemed to have a connection though.”
A source told People that Jenner and Drake have been hanging out “romantically” since Jenner in early October broke up with rapper Scott, the father of her 1-year-old daughter Stormi. Jenner and Scott dated for two years, and the couple referred to their split as “taking a break,” People said.

Kylie publicly confirmed the news of their breakup by tweeting, “Travis and I are on great terms.”
She also said their “main focus” is Stormi. “Our friendship and our daughter is priority.”
If nothing else, another source told People, Jenner and Drake have been friends “for a long time.” Sources have insisted to both Us Weekly and People that Jenner and Drake remain “just friends.”
But it’s also known that Drake is close to the Kardashian-Jenner family and runs in the same social circles. Indeed, the rapper performed at Kylie’s Sweet 16 birthday party in 2013. Moreover, he has made music with Travis Scott and with Kim Kardashian’s husband, Kanye West.
Over the years, Drake has been romantically linked to a number of women, with some of those associations belonging in the “rumor” category, while others have been confirmed, People reported.
The women who have fallen into Drake’s orbit — as “just friends,” collaborators or something more — include Nicki Minaj, Jennifer Lopez, Hailey Baldwin, Rihanna, Serena Williams, former Golden State Warriors reporter Rosalyn “Ros” Gold-Onwude, and even Taylor Swift.
Before Jenner entered this orbit, Drake had been single in recent months, People said.
In June 2018, he used numerous tracks on his double album “Scorpion” to confirm the long-rumored news that he had fathered a 2-year-old son with Sophie Brussaux, a French artist and former adult film star, People reported at the time. But he also suggested that he and Brussaux were not together.
