Five months after giving birth to their daughter, Scottie Rose, and just a year after making things official, the word on the street is that Pete Davidson and Elsie Hewitt hit a rough patch.
It was just January when Davidson was going on Jimmy Fallon and gushing about his new life as a father: “All the clichés are true,” he said. “It’s so much fun. It’s nuts. It’s fun to see Elsie be a great mom.” New love, new baby, whole new Pete. What could go wrong? Certainly, the last thing I was expecting when I awoke was a report from People claiming that Davidson and Hewitt were “working through relationship issues.” Then, Duexmoi came in hot with an item suggesting that the couple had indeed “quietly split.”
“There are issues, but they’re trying to figure things out together,” the source told People. They’re adjusting to parenthood and working through the process,” adding that Scottie remains “their top priority.”
Duexmoi followed closely behind, posting an item with the subject line “Yeet Yeet,” a reference to Davidson’s SNL sketch with Timothee Chalamet. In the item, the submitter wrote, “Which A-list comedian and recent first-time dad often spotted around Brooklyn, has quietly split from his lowkey “nonfamous” girlfriend? Sources say the relationship fizzled out just as quickly as it started.”
The couple was first spotted in March of 2025 having a beach day in Florida. Four months later, Hewitt announced via Instagram that they were pregnant, “welp, now everyone knows we had sex,” she captioned the post, and if people think that’s moving fast, they clearly weren’t here for the Great Ariana Grande/Davidson Whiplash of 2018.
In October, a source told People that marriage might even be in the cards: “Pete and Elsie have talked about marriage and are very committed to each other,” the source said. “There will be an engagement at some point, but they’re not in a rush.” Was I the fool for believing this could be the happy ending?
Whether it’s “working through the process” or “quietly split,” it seems like things are far from good. What happened? Did doing spon-con Sonic ads together kill the romance? Or maybe Hewitt didn’t find his joke about watching porn in front of their 5-month-old daughter very amusing…
