Davidson joined the show in 2014, at the age of 20, making him one of the youngest to ever be a part of the show. His controversial humor led him to stardom, as well as his many romantic relationships with celebrities such as Ariana Grande, Kate Beckinsale and now Kim Kardashian.
The comedian has been saying for several years that he is going to resign, however, a rumor has never sounded as strong as now, with many people saying that he will probably move to Los Angeles to be closer to his girlfriend.
