Pete Davidson and Elsie Hewitt’s romance moved from beachside kisses to baby bottles in record time. Just months after publicly debuting their relationship, the couple announced they were expecting their first child together that surprised even some of Pete’s closest friends.
Now, only months after welcoming daughter Scottie Rose, the relationship has reportedly come to an end, and insiders say the warning signs were there long before the split became public.
According to a source, Pete and Elsie were clashing behind the scenes
Friends close to the former couple say the relationship developed quickly from the very beginning. While Pete has never been shy about diving headfirst into romance, some insiders reportedly raised their eyebrows when the pregnancy announcement arrived only four months after the pair went public.
At the time, those around them believed the couple seemed happy and committed. But according to sources who spoke with Page Six, life behind the scenes became increasingly complicated. “The two of them maybe clashed too much,” one insider said, noting that adjusting to life as new parents can place enormous pressure on any relationship.
Another source stressed that daughter Scottie Rose was not the cause of the breakup. Instead, they claimed compatibility issues had already surfaced before the baby arrived.
The split gained more attention after Hewitt shared social media posts looking for an assistant, nanny, or “right hand person.” In a separate TikTok, she admitted balancing work and motherhood alone had been difficult.
Those comments reportedly confused people in Pete’s inner circle.
The Blast reported that sources close to the comedian insist he remains actively involved in supporting both Hewitt and Scottie. One insider claimed Pete continues covering rent, living expenses, and health insurance while also arranging his work schedule to spend as much time as possible with his daughter.
Fatherhood has reportedly become Pete’s primary focus. The little girl’s name carries special meaning for the comedian. Scottie Rose was inspired by Pete’s late father, New York City firefighter Scott Davidson, who died during the September 11 attacks.
Friends say the breakup has been painful, but that Pete is handling it differently than previous public splits. After years of openly discussing his struggles with mental health and addiction, insiders describe him as healthier, more stable, and committed to co-parenting peacefully.
“He’s focused on being happy and healthy,” one source said, adding that Pete is also rooting for Hewitt’s success as they move forward separately.
