Comedian Pete Davidson has dropped out of Jeff Bezos's latest space flight. The Saturday Night Live comic, and boyfriend of Kim Kardashian, is no longer able to take part in the shuttle's 20th voyage, the billionaire's private space company Blue Origin announced on social media.

It comes after the date was pushed back from 23 to 29 March, and a replacement sixth crew member now needs to be found. Star Trek actor William Shatner is among the previous famous guests who have made the high-profile cosmic trips - becoming the oldest person to reach space in October 2021, at the age of 90 - along with former American football player and TV personality Michael Strahan. "Pete Davidson is no longer able to join the NS-20 crew on this mission," Blue Origin tweeted, announcing the comedian had dropped out of the latest flight. "We will announce the sixth crew member in the coming days. "It comes amid a high-profile row between Davidson and rapper Kanye West, ex-husband of Davidson's partner Kardashian.

Earlier this week, West - now known as Ye - had his Instagram account temporarily blocked after he posted a number of online attacks on the 28-year-old comedian.
