RADAR Told You First! Pete Davidson Is Leaving 'SNL' After Season 47 Finale

Pete Davidson is preparing to say good-bye to his role on Saturday Night Live, a new report revealed amid the comedian's red-hot romance with girlfriend Kim Kardashian.

The Staten Island native, 28, is reportedly planning to make his exit after the broadcast of this weekend's season 47 finale, an insider told Variety on Friday.

RadarOnline.com previously reported on Davidson's seventh straight absence from the NBC comedy sketch series, sparking rumors that he would soon be bidding the show adieu.

The comedian was last on set in late February and co-stars were under the impression that he had already quit, despite claims he was released for a period of time to shoot an indie horror film in his hometown New York borough.

"Pete is a huge part of the show. But it's as if he's either a part-timer or quit mid-season," one source connected to SNL told RadarOnline.com. "Some of his costars are privately raising their eyebrows. Here they are being told by everyone at NBC that he is filming a movie, but all they see is him bobbing up alongside Kim and her family at events like the WHCD (White House Correspondents Dinner) and the MET Gala. It's hard not to feel anything but abandoned by one of their own!"

"Perhaps Pete thinks he's now beyond SNL," a second source theorized. "It's more unlikely than likely that he'll return."
