Pete Davidson’s latest relationship is moving fast, even if he and his model girlfriend haven’t been too public about their romance. The former SNL star began dating Elsie Hewitt in early 2025, shortly after he opened up about how the media frenzy around his love life has been a “living hell” for him in the past. Understandably, the two lovebirds have mostly kept things private, so when they do step out together or post romantic pics, it’s all the more swoon-worthy.
The first reports of Davidson’s new girlfriend came from Page Six on March 17, with a source claiming the comedian was seeing a “non-celebrity” who was “very different from anyone else he’s ever dated.” While Hewitt may not be on the A-list level of Davidson’s high-profile exes like Kim Kardashian and Ariana Grande, she isn’t completely removed from the celebrity sphere. The supermodel has acted in buzzy shows like Industry and Dave, and even has her own impressive list of super-famous exes, including Ryan Phillippe, Benny Blanco, and Davidon’s SNL co-star Jason Sudeikis.
Right before Davidson and Hewitt went public with their relationship, Davidson spoke about how the past public attention on his dating life has negatively affected him. “It was pretty humiliating and upsetting, honestly,” he told Page Six in February. “Everyone is dating everyone and it’s Hollywood … But because I’m ugly, they wrote about me. I was harassed for like five years and it made my life a living hell.”
It’s clear Davidson’s shunning the spotlight a bit more in his new romance, but that hasn’t stopped Hewitt and himself from sharing some lovey-dovey moments publicly.
