Kim Kardashian and Odell Beckham Jr. have been linked since September 2023

Kim Kardashian and Odell Beckham Jr. continue to spark romance rumors.

The SKIMS founder and the Baltimore Ravens wide receiver were first seen at the same function when they both attended Fanatics CEO Michael Rubins’ July 4th party in 2023. While neither have confirmed their relationship, sources have told PEOPLE that the two have been “hanging out” as early as September 2023.

Kardashian was previously married to Kanye West before their split in 2021. The former couple share four children together: North, Saint, Chicago and Psalm. Beckham is also a father to his son Zydn, whom he welcomed with his ex-girlfriend Lauren Wood in 2022.
This isn’t the first time Kardashian has been connected to an NFL player. In 2007, she dated then-New Orleans Saints star Reggie Bush, which was documented on the first season of Keeping Up with the Kardashians. However, the two broke up in 2010 due to their demanding schedules.

From their early hangouts to where their romance currently stands, here’s a complete timeline of Kim Kardashian and Odell Beckham Jr.’s rumored relationship.

Though the two were not romantically linked at the time, they did both attend Rubin’s annual white party on Independence Day. Following the event, there was speculation that Kardashian was interested in a different football icon — Tom Brady — though Rubin put the rumors to rest.

“Honestly, they’re just friends,” Rubin told Entertainment Tonight a couple of weeks later, calling the stories “crazy rumors.”
A source confirmed to PEOPLE that Kardashian and Beckham had made a connection and “are hanging out.” The news came at the same time as it was confirmed Beckham and Wood had broken up earlier that year.
