Pete Davidson, 32, and Elsie Hewitt, 30, have reportedly ended their relationship. The split comes approximately five months after the couple welcomed their first child, a daughter named Scottie Rose Hewitt Davidson, born in December. Reports suggest the separation stems, in part, from Davidson's demanding work schedule and Hewitt's perceived need for greater domestic support following the child's birth.
The couple, who publicly confirmed their relationship sometime before Hewitt's pregnancy announcement in July, are now reportedly focused on co-parenting their infant daughter. This isn't the first instance of reported strain; earlier accounts hinted at the pair "navigating relationship struggles" in the months after Scottie Rose's arrival.
Sources indicate that Hewitt expressed a desire for "more support from him at home" after their daughter was born, a sentiment apparently exacerbated by Davidson's frequent travel for work commitments. Reports from The Sun specifically cite his busy professional obligations as a contributing factor to the breakup.

The relationship between the comedian and the British model has been described as intense and fast-paced, with one source suggesting they "didn't know each other well" prior to Hewitt's pregnancy. It has also been noted that the couple had experienced "ups and downs" previously.
Hewitt herself recently shared insights into the realities of new motherhood, describing feeling like a "zombie" after finally managing to get their daughter to sleep. Davidson had previously spoken of his joy in fatherhood, expressing his admiration for Hewitt's parenting skills and his desire for their daughter to become a "big sister" in the future.
In an earlier period, Hewitt was involved in a legal dispute. She had sued actor Ryan Phillippe, alleging physical assault during an incident in July 2021. She claimed he kicked, punched, and threw her down a flight of stairs, leading to an emergency room visit. This matter was also referred to the Los Angeles city attorney's office for potential prosecution.
