Comedian and actor Pete Davidson is stepping into a new role — fatherhood. The 31-year-old former Saturday Night Live star is expecting his first child with girlfriend Elsie Hewitt, who revealed the news in a lighthearted Instagram post on Wednesday.
Hewitt, 29, shared a series of photos and a video of her ultrasound, captioning it humorously: “welp now everyone knows we had sex.” The post featured Davidson by her side, visibly excited about the milestone. A representative for Davidson later confirmed the pregnancy via email.
This marks the first child for both Davidson and Hewitt, who have been romantically linked since March after being seen together on a beach date in Palm Beach, Florida. Their relationship began several months after Davidson’s previous relationship with actress Madelyn Cline ended in mid-2023.
Hewitt, a model and actress known for roles in shows like Industry, Dave, and a Benny Blanco music video, has previously been connected to other celebrities, including Blanco and actor Jason Sudeikis. Davidson, meanwhile, has made headlines for his high-profile relationships with stars such as Ariana Grande and Kim Kardashian, alongside his growing career in stand-up and film.
Davidson has previously expressed his desire to become a parent, telling Kevin Hart in a 2022 interview that having a child was something he deeply looked forward to: “It’s gonna be so fun to dress up a little dude. I’m so excited for that chapter.”
Now, it looks like that chapter is finally beginning.
