Mini Pete Davidson Incoming

Pete Davidson has a new role: Dad! The comedian’s girlfriend, Elsie Hewitt, confirmed on Wednesday that the couple is expecting their first child. At least Pete’s having a good 2025!

“welp now everyone knows we had sex,” the actress captioned an Instagram slideshow, which included a sonogram, two memes, and something akin to a maternity shoot.

The two were first linked in March, when they were spotted on the beach in Florida, and reportedly quickly moved in together, now splitting their time between Brooklyn and upstate New York. They made their red-carpet debut in May at the Endometriosis Foundation of America’s annual Blossom Ball. “He is so incredible,” Hewitt told People on the red carpet. “Honestly, best person I’ve ever met.” Wow. Cute!

We all know who Davidson’s dated over the last 10 years, but Hewitt was linked to Jason Sudeikis in January 2024, and Benny Blanco before that, and then Ryan Philippe before that.

“It’s super-corny, but it would be so fun to dress up a little dude,” Davidson told Kevin Hart on Hart to Heart in 2022. (At the time, he was dating Kim Kardashian.) “I’m so excited for that chapter. So that’s kind of what I’m just preparing for now, is trying to be like good as a dude and develop and get better so when that happens it’s just easier.”

We rarely feel the need to say this at Jezebel, but good for him!
