Elsie Hewitt Opens Up on Life After Split

Model Elsie Hewitt is getting candid about her new reality – life as a single mom. Just months after the birth of her daughter with comedian Pete Davidson, Elsie took to TikTok to address swirling rumors about her relationship status. In a heartfelt video posted on May 16, Elsie shared the challenges of juggling her burgeoning career and the demands of motherhood.

"Yeah yeah, I know. I'm exhausted, OK? I should've left the house looking nicer yesterday," she admitted candidly, responding to recent paparazzi photos. "But that's not what I'm thinking about right now, because I have a baby to take care of." It's clear that Elsie is feeling the pressure, noting she is managing everything "on my own."

“Noted, next time I will try to look nicer when I get paparazzi-ed on a walk with my daughter,” Elsie added with a touch of sarcasm, showing her light-hearted side amid the chaos.

Davidson’s Continued Support Amid Breakup

The Sun U.S. recently reported that Elsie and Pete, who confirmed their romance in March 2025, have officially called it quits. However, a close source assures that Pete is still very much involved in supporting their daughter, Scottie Rose Hewitt Davidson. According to insider information, Pete "pays for everything" related to Scottie, covering health insurance and even Elsie's rent.

While USA TODAY has reached out to Pete's reps for further comment, the comedian has previously expressed his eagerness about fatherhood. Reflecting on his own father's tragic passing during 9/11, Pete once shared, "I think he's proud and he's excited to meet this baby." The joy of welcoming Scottie Rose seems to be a meaningful chapter for Pete, despite the split.

In a world where celebrity breakups often turn messy, Elsie's openness about her struggles and Pete's visible support is a refreshing take on co-parenting. The future may be uncertain, but both seem committed to doing the best for their daughter.
