Elsie Hewitt said she’s taking care of her 5-month-old daughter, Scottie Rose, on her own after splitting from her partner, Pete Davidson. However, sources claim that’s not the case, saying that Davidson has been providing support in any way he could, despite no longer being romantically involved with the mother of his child.
Hewitt and Davidson had a whirlwind romance, confirming their relationship in March 2025 and revealing they were having a baby just months later. Just months after their daughter’s birth, reports started circulating that the two had parted ways.
On May 15, Elsie Hewitt was photographed walking with her baby in a stroller, several days after her split from Pete Davidson made the rounds on entertainment news outlets. The following day, the model took to TikTok to address her appearance in the paparazzi shots, saying she was exhausted.
“After I left the house looking like it yesterday, I should’ve known that was gonna happen. But that’s not what I’m thinking about right now,” Hewitt said, adding that her physical appearance wasn’t her priority when she has an infant to take care of.
While she didn’t address her split with Davidson, she did say that she has been doing things by herself, apart from having to work and make money. “I’m doing it on my own… which is hard,” she continued.
The Actress Put Out A Call For Help
Hewitt also posted on Instagram Stories, looking for someone who could help her. In the post, which has since been deleted, the 30-year-old “Industry” actress advertised for an “assistant/mother’s helper/nanny type,” who could help her with Scottie Rose and whatever else she may need.
She included her email address, writing that she would only entertain serious and qualified applicants who send in their resumes, adding that they would, of course, be compensated.
Hewitt’s social media posts set off online chatter about her ex, leading many to believe that Davidson abandoned Hewitt and Scottie Rose, leaving them with zero support whatsoever.
Elsie Hewitt’s Claims Were Disputed
One source close to Davidson told Entertainment Weekly that Hewitt’s claims about solo parenting were false, sharing that the comedian is financially supporting his ex and their daughter. “Pete has paid all expenses related to Scottie and also has covered health fees, apartment, health insurance, etc…” the insider said.
Moreover, the source said that not only does Davidson provide financially, but he has also been “available, accessible, and around consistently to be able to take care of Scottie,” which made Hewitt’s claims “confusing” and inaccurate. The insider claims that the “SNL” alum cares about his ex, but “obviously, Scottie’s health and safety is most important.”
A source also told Page Six that Davidson has been supportive financially and otherwise, adding that the comedian has done “everything he can” to be physically present for his daughter. “Obviously, they have had personal disagreements and there has been a breakdown in the relationship, but he is fully commited to being a good dad,” the source added.
Elsie Hewitt And Pete Davidson’s Relationship
In March 2025, reports began circulating that Davidson was in a relationship with Hewitt. Despite not directly confirming their relationship, they went Instagram official later that month, with the model posting a short clip of Davidson in a bathrobe.
In the weeks that followed, the new couple was spotted in various locations and events, including at a basketball game and a wedding in Scotland. In July, Hewitt announced her pregnancy on Instagram, captioning the post, “welp now everyone knows we had sex.”
Davidson acknowledged the news publicly, gushing about Hewitt and sharing his excitement over becoming a father, which he said was his dream since he was a child. Hewitt gave birth to Scottie Rose on December 12, 2025, with the couple welcoming their “perfect angel girl” in an Instagram post.
The Ex-Couple Has Reportedly Split A Few Times In The Past
This isn’t the first time Hewitt and Davidson have parted ways, a source claims. As previously reported by The Blast, the model and comedian have gone through several rough patches in their relationship, breaking up and reconciling multiple times in the past.
The exes are reportedly “working on things” while co-parenting Scottie Rose, but it isn’t clear whether they are open to getting back together this time around. Despite their differences, both Hewitt and Davidson keep their daughter as their first priority.
