Pete Davidson’s Ex Elsie Hewitt Says She’s Solo Parenting Their Daughter

May 18, 2026 - 22:49

Elsie Hewitt, the former partner of comedian Pete Davidson, has spoken publicly about navigating parenthood as a single mother. The model and actress revealed that she is currently solo parenting their daughter, Scottie Rose, following her split from Davidson.

Reports surfaced earlier this week that the couple had ended their relationship, just five months after the birth of their child. Hewitt addressed the situation in a candid social media post, describing the challenges of raising an infant without a partner. She emphasized that while she is grateful for her daughter, the experience has been emotionally and physically demanding.

"Being a solo parent to a newborn is not something I ever planned for, but here we are," Hewitt wrote. She did not elaborate on the reasons for the breakup or Davidson's involvement with the baby, leaving fans to speculate about the comedian's role in their daughter's life.

Davidson, known for his work on "Saturday Night Live" and his high-profile relationships, has not publicly commented on the split or Hewitt's remarks. The couple had kept much of their relationship private, with the news of their daughter's birth only surfacing through a birth certificate filing earlier this year.

Hewitt's post has drawn support from followers, many of whom praised her honesty about the struggles of single motherhood. As she adjusts to this new chapter, she remains focused on providing a stable and loving home for Scottie Rose.
