Pete Davidson "Fully" Supporting Baby Scottie, Elsie Hewitt After Apparent Breakup

Published: May 19 2026


Pete Davidson will always be devoted to his and Elsie Hewitt's daughter, Scottie. That's why, despite their apparent breakup, a source has told E! News that Pete "is fully financially supporting the child and Elsie."

In addition to "covering all of Scottie's expenses," the insider revealed that Pete, 32, also "shoulders all of the financial costs" for Elsie's well-being, including her rent and health insurance. "He wants nothing but the best for Elsie," the source continued. "He is hoping that Elsie has good health and success for the sake of their daughter."

Although Elsie recently claimed in a TikTok video that she has been raising their daughter "on my own," E! News has learned that the comedian is also playing a hands-on role in parenting Scottie. As the source put it, "Pete has been 100% present in Scottie's life."

Pete and Elsie, 30, welcomed Scottie on December 12, 2025. The pair named their baby girl after Pete's late father, Scott Davidson - a New York City firefighter who died during the 9/11 terrorist attacks - as well as a special place close to their hearts. "She was conceived in Scotland," Pete told Elite Daily in January, with Elsie calling Scottie's moniker "an early favorite."

"We always knew that was the one we were going to come back to, because it was the most meaningful," she continued. "It's also so cute."

However, during her early days of postpartum, Elsie faced several medical setbacks. She had her wisdom tooth removed just one day after giving birth and later contracted food poisoning two months later. "I am extremely nauseous / was throwing up last night," Elsie wrote on Instagram Stories in February after rushing to the emergency room. "Haven't slept / have chills everywhere and EVERYTHING HURTS."

"My legs are like spasming," she continued at the time. "I feel like they're gonna fly off my body - they're so restless all below the waist."

Despite these challenges, Elsie - who also experienced painful complications during her pregnancy due to endometriosis - has been relishing every moment of motherhood. In fact, she recently quipped that she "cracked the code" after mastering a bottle-feeding technique with Scottie.

"I exhaled. I embraced the quiet," she wrote in the forward of Tommee Tippee's Feeding Made Simple Guide, released earlier in May. "I smelled her head. I wept."
