The comedian Pete Davidson shares his excitement as he prepares for fatherhood with model Elsie Hewitt

July 23, 2025: Comedian and actor Pete Davidson is officially going to be a dad. The Saturday Night Live alum broke his silence after his girlfriend, model Elsie Hewitt, publicly confirmed that the couple is expecting their first child together.

“I’m Excited, She’s Excited — We’re Just Really Happy”

Speaking during a stand-up set at the Improv in Hollywood, Davidson shared the news with the crowd, saying, “I’m very excited. We’re both very happy.” He added light-heartedly, “I can’t wait to be a dad — and no, I won’t be naming the baby Chad.”

This marks a new chapter for the 30-year-old comedian, who has been open in the past about his struggles with mental health, addiction recovery, and navigating fame. Friends close to the couple say that fatherhood is something he’s taking seriously and embracing with joy.

Public Confirmation from Elsie

The baby news was first made public by Elsie Hewitt, 28, during a casual conversation at a fashion event, where she confirmed she was pregnant and shared how excited she and Pete are to start a family. The model, known for her work with major brands and her vibrant social media presence, has reportedly entered her second trimester.

A Whirlwind Romance

Pete and Elsie have been dating for several months and made their red carpet debut earlier this year. While both have kept their relationship mostly private, the baby news has brought the couple into the spotlight, with fans flooding social media with congratulations.

Looking Ahead

As Pete prepares for fatherhood, he continues to juggle a busy career in comedy and film. Insiders suggest he’s been cutting back on touring commitments to be present during Elsie’s pregnancy.

This next step seems to mark a more grounded and settled era for Davidson — and fans can’t wait to meet the newest member of the Davidson family.
