Pete Davidson’s love life has once again captured headlines, as the comedian’s mystery girlfriend has been revealed as model Elsie Hewitt. The former Saturday Night Live star, 31, is now dating the 29-year-old British model and food influencer, known for her past relationships with high-profile celebrities including Benny Blanco and Jason Sudeikis.
Elsie Hewitt’s Star-Studded Dating History
Davidson’s new romance comes shortly after reports claimed he was dating someone “very different” from his past partners. Hewitt, despite her connections to Hollywood, is not a traditional A-list star. She boasts over one million Instagram followers and has worked as an actress in projects such as Teenage Badass and Dave.
She previously dated music producer Benny Blanco, who is now engaged to Selena Gomez. The two met on the set of Blanco’s Graduation music video in 2019 but ended their relationship in 2020. Hewitt later moved on to Ted Lasso star Jason Sudeikis in early 2024, and before that, she was linked to actor Ryan Phillippe.
Her past relationship with Phillippe made headlines when she filed a lawsuit against him in 2017, alleging that he physically assaulted her by kicking, punching, and throwing her down the stairs. Phillippe denied the claims, and the lawsuit was settled in 2019.
Davidson and Hewitt Spotted Packing on the PDA
Earlier this week, Davidson and Hewitt were photographed sharing affectionate moments during a beach date in Palm Beach, Fla. The couple was seen holding hands and embracing in the waves, marking their first public display of affection since news of their relationship broke.
A source close to Davidson shared that the relationship is still in its early stages, but the comedian “really likes” Hewitt. The insider added that Hewitt respects Davidson’s desire for privacy, a trait that has been important to him following his highly publicized relationships with exes like Ariana Grande and Kim Kardashian.
Davidson’s family reportedly approves of the romance, with his mother, Amy Waters Davidson, and sister, Casey Davidson, expressing their support. “They love seeing Pete so happy,” the source said.
Davidson’s Long List of A-List Exes
Davidson’s dating history is well-documented, with a roster of high-profile partners including Grande, Kardashian, Kate Beckinsale, Margaret Qualley, Phoebe Dynevor, Kaia Gerber, and Chase Sui Wonders. Most recently, he was linked to Outer Banks actress Madelyn Cline before their reported split last summer.
Despite his history of high-profile romances, Davidson’s connection with Hewitt is drawing attention due to her relatively low-profile Hollywood presence. While she maintains a social media following, she has largely avoided the constant media scrutiny that comes with being a mainstream celebrity.
Neither Davidson nor Hewitt has publicly commented on their relationship. However, their recent beachside rendezvous suggests they are not shying away from enjoying their time together.
