Pete Davidson Is a Dad: Elsie Hewitt Welcomes Their First Baby

Pete Davidson and model-actor Elsie Hewitt have welcomed their first child, a baby girl, sharing the news days after her arrival — a full-circle milestone for Davidson, who has long talked about becoming a father.

Pete Davidson is officially a dad. He and his girlfriend, model-actor Elsie Hewitt, quietly welcomed a baby girl and then let everyone in on it a few days later. If you have followed Pete at all, you know this is the role he has been talking about for years.

Meet Scottie Rose Hewitt Davidson

Their daughter, Scottie Rose Hewitt Davidson, was born on 12/12/2025. Hewitt shared the news on social, complete with close-up photos and a date stamp, while keeping the baby’s face covered with a heart emoji. Pete kept it very Pete in the caption department.

'Our perfect angel girl arrived 12/12/2025.'

'My best work yet, I am absolutely overflowing with love and gratitude and disbelief.'

From Pete: 'wu tang forever'

The name is not random. Scottie honors Pete’s late father, Scott Davidson, the New York City firefighter who died responding to the September 11 attacks. Rose is Hewitt’s own middle name. Sweet, simple, personal.

The quick timeline

• March: Davidson and Hewitt go public as a couple.
• July: They confirm they are expecting.
• December 12: Baby Scottie arrives. They share the news a few days later.

Why this hits different for Pete

He has said over and over that being a dad was the dream. After the pregnancy announcement, he told E! News that everyone around him knew this was his thing and that he felt 'lucky' and 'happy.' Losing his father at age 7 is a huge part of why he wanted to build a family of his own, and you can feel that all over this moment.

Friends weighing in

Support has been steady. Kenan Thompson, Pete’s longtime SNL pal, said back in August in Parade that he expects Pete to be a 'hyper-dedicated dad.' Hard to argue with that read.

For now, they are keeping it low-key and protective, which makes total sense. But between the name and the low-key flex of 'wu tang forever,' this is very much a Pete-and-Elsie announcement: sentimental, private, and a little bit funny.
