Pete Davidson to become a dad as girlfriend Elsie Hewitt announces pregnancy

Pete Davidson is set to embrace fatherhood for the first time. The comedian's partner, Elsie Hewitt, took to Instagram with snaps of the duo - who made their relationship official in March - flaunting her burgeoning belly alongside an ultrasound snap of their soon-to-be bundle of joy.

Her caption cheekily read: "Welp now everyone knows we had sex." Insiders spilled to TMZ that Elsie's due date is slated for the winter, and the couple has been spreading their joyous tidings amongst close ones.

In a May interview with People magazine, the 29-year-old model couldn't help but sing Pete's praises, stating: "He is so incredible. Honestly, best person I've ever met, and I'm so grateful."

The lovebirds recently graced the Endometriosis Foundation of America's 13th Annual Blossom Ball in New York City, marking their first joint red carpet appearance. Elsie opened up about how Pete has been her rock through her endometriosis struggles, sharing, "It was just really important to both of us to come here and support the foundation and keep helping, spreading the word and educating people."

She continued, revealing the sweet gestures Pete makes: "Pete sets me up with a little heating pad, and it's very sweet, and I just eat whatever. I'm like, I will allow myself to eat whatever I want and just snuggle up and watch a movie."

Elsie affectionately concluded, "Everyone deserves a Pete!".

Despite their relatively fresh romance, it has come to light that the pair have already taken the plunge into living together. A source told People: "Pete and Elsie have been living together in New York for the past few months. They're splitting their time between Pete's house in upstate New York and a brownstone they recently started renting in Brooklyn.

"They're so happy together and doing great."

Before finding love with Elsie, Pete's last high-profile romance was with 'Outer Banks' star Madelyn Cline, which ended eight months ago. Elsie, on the other hand, has been previously connected to actor Jason Sudeikis and also had a past relationship with Ryan Phillippe.

Pete has also recently been going through a transformation. The star has opted to clear his heavily tattooed torso. In April, the star had already rid himself of 30 per cent of his body art. He claimed at one point he had boasted over 200 different designs.

Now, as he continues to make the change, he revealed his efforts had already come at a whopping cost of over $200,000 (£151,000). However, he thinks the full overhaul is going to take 10 years and thousands more pounds.

Speaking to Variety, he said: "I started during COVID in 2020 and it’s gonna take me another 10 years," Pete revealed. "My arms are pretty much gone, and my hands and neck are gone. But I still have to do my torso and back."

He went on: "I have to plan it in between work because it’s a six-week healing process each time you get one removed. Each tattoo is 10 to 12 sessions. That's 60 weeks of your life right there on just one tattoo to remove. So, it’s pretty horrible."
