It is still unknown what caused Davidson to blow up. Law enforcement in Long Island City, New York, where the show is presently being shot, said that no police report had yet been made on the claimed incident, reported The US Sun. 

Davidson was dating Kim Kardashian, 42, and had just called it quits over the summer. They are believed to still be in contact over text, according to ET. An insider told The US Sun, "They do still talk a lot, they are good friends and laugh a lot - he's holding in there and tells her that he would jump on a plane at a moment's notice for her. But Kim thinks life is just too messy now and she doesn't want anything serious right now - while he clearly does. She doesn't want to string him along, she doesn't want to do that and give him hope there's a chance when she knows there's not."

According to Variety, Davidson is the co-writer and executive producer of the show 'Bupkis' while also starring in a lead role. Joe Pesci will be playing his grandfather in the series.

Since leaving 'SNL', Davidson has been in a number of acting projects. He appeared in the movies 'The Suicide Squad', 'Big Time Adolescence' and 'The King of Staten Island'. Most recently, Davidson finished filming 'Wizards!' in Australia, which also has Orlando Bloom. He also had an appearance in the Machine Gun Kelly film 'Good Mourning With a U' and 'Meet Cute' starring Kaley Cuoco.
