Pete Davidson Goes Instagram Official with New Girlfriend Elsie Hewitt

NEW YORK, March 21, 2025 — Comedian Pete Davidson has made his relationship with model Elsie Hewitt Instagram official, just days after reports surfaced about their romance. On March 20, Hewitt shared a playful video on her Instagram Stories, capturing a lighthearted moment with Davidson.

The video begins with Hewitt filming a retro episode of Nickelodeon‘s “Rugrats” playing on a 13-inch television. As the show’s opening credits end, she transitions the camera to reveal a smiling Davidson entering the frame, clad in a white bathrobe. The couple shared a laugh in the moment, showcasing their playful chemistry.

Earlier this week, PEOPLE confirmed through a source that Davidson, 31, and Hewitt, 29, are dating. Though representatives for both stars have yet to comment, the pair was recently spotted enjoying sunny Palm Beach, Florida, where they were photographed sharing a kiss and holding hands along the shoreline.

The couple was seen immersed in moments of affection, exchanging playful glimpses and kisses, even touching tongues as they enjoyed their time in the ocean. Their beach outing was a stark contrast to their more discreet outings in New York City, where they kept a low profile, blending in with the crowd.

A source shared with PEOPLE that Davidson is “happy” in this new relationship, noting that Hewitt is respectful of his need for privacy. “Although things are new for Pete, he really likes this woman. She respects Pete and his desire for privacy,” the insider revealed.

Davidson’s romantic history includes high-profile relationships with notable figures such as Kim Kardashian, Ariana Grande, and Emily Ratajkowski. Despite previously experiencing the challenges of dating in the public eye, Davidson seems optimistic, having described his previous relationships as generally drama-free and expressing a desire to focus more on his career.

“I want people to write about my work,” Davidson stated in a previous interview, addressing the scrutiny his dating life has often attracted. “Everyone is dating everyone and it’s Hollywood,” he added, highlighting the pressures of his public persona.

Meanwhile, Hewitt has a history of dating various celebrities, including actor Ryan Phillippe and comedian Jason Sudeikis. Most recently linked to Sudeikis, Hewitt’s past relationships have garnered attention, yet she emphasizes her romantic ideals. “Love is the best thing in the world,” she said in a past interview. “I think time is the most valuable thing.”

The model, who was born in London and raised in Los Angeles, has carved out a niche for herself in the modeling industry, becoming known for her work with brands like Guess and as Playboy’s Miss June in 2017. In addition to modeling, she aspires to continue her acting career and hopes to separate her personal life from her professional work.

The couple’s recent beach getaway, accompanied by a flurry of affectionate photos, appears to be just the beginning of their romantic journey, leaving fans eager for updates on this emerging relationship.
