Drake who has been messaging Kim Kardashian is ready to start dating her!

Drake reportedly has set his sights on Kim Kardashian, who has become newly-single after filing for divorce from husband Kanye West last month.

The rapper, 34, is said to have started messaging the Keeping Up With The Kardashians star when it was clear her marriage with Kanye was ending. It comes after Drake cryptically mentioned Kanye on his new song Wants and Needs, sparking fans to question whether the Hotline Bling hitmaker and Kim, 40, had a fling previously. 

A source told Heat: 'Drake could never understand what Kim saw in Kanye - he was saying for years how he wasn't the right guy for Kim and it would all end in tears. 

'He was surprised it took her so long to realise, and started messaging her the moment it became clear that the divorce was inevitable, he's ready to see her whenever she says the word, basically, and he's confident that will happen fairly soon.'
