Pete Davidson is officially dating again, and this time it’s Elsie Hewitt, a model and actress, who has caught the comedian's interest. The new couple was recently spotted together during a romantic getaway in Palm Beach, Florida, where evidence of their blossoming romance was captured on film.
On March 15 and 16, photos surfaced showing Davidson and Hewitt sharing kisses and enjoying playful moments in the ocean, clearly comfortable in each other’s company. This beach trip is reportedly the first vacation the couple took together, and they were seen holding hands while swimming, making it evident that their relationship is more than just a casual fling.
Before Hewitt, Davidson faced the end of his previous relationship with actress Madelyn Cline in July 2024, after dating for less than a year. Refreshing the table of his romantic history, Davidson has been linked to several high-profile figures including Emily Ratajkowski, Kim Kardashian, Ariana Grande, and many more in the past. This new romance with Hewitt represents a shift, as she's been referred to in some reports as a ‘non-celebrity,’ though she’s far from it, with a history in the entertainment sphere.
So, who exactly is Elsie Hewitt? The 29-year-old British-American beauty was born on March 5, 1996, in London and moved to Los Angeles at just ten years old. A known figure in modeling, she was named Playboy's Miss June in 2017 and boasts a strong following on Instagram, where she shares glimpses of her life as well as delicious posts on her food blog, @elsieeats, which has gained over 47,000 followers. Besides modeling, she has appeared on shows like Dave and Industry, showcasing her talents and expanding her public footprint.
Hewitt's romantic history has been encapsulated by a few noteworthy relationships, including a tumultuous past with actor Ryan Phillippe, which led to a lawsuit in 2017 due to alleged assault; the case was settled in 2019. More recently, she has been romantically linked to Jason Sudeikis of Ted Lasso fame and music producer Benny Blanco.
Photos from the beach getaway portray a fun and flirtatious interaction, with Davidson and Hewitt not holding back their affection in front of onlookers. The couple was also spotted with friends, soaking in the sun and indulging in beachside cocktails, which speaks volumes about their level of comfort and connection.
Despite the buzz around their relationship, it appears Davidson is attempting to maintain a level of privacy regarding his new romance. A source stated that he was hoping to keep things low-key, although initial reports suggest that he has introduced Hewitt to some important people in his life, indicating that this relationship may have lasting potential.
Hewitt is vocal about her romantic beliefs as she previously revealed in a 2017 interview, stating, “Love is the best thing in the world,” emphasizing the value of time over grand gestures in relationships. As for Davidson, he appears to be “very happy” with his new girlfriend, showcasing a positive shift in his dating landscape.
With Davidson's previous relationships often making headlines, this new partnership with Hewitt introduces a sense of curiosity among fans as they wonder how long this romance will last. Will this dynamic duo defy the odds and establish a more sustainable love story than Davidson's past high-profile romances? Only time will tell.
As both Davidson and Hewitt navigate their connection publicly, fans will undoubtedly be keeping a close watch on their next moves. For now, they seem to be having a blast, and who doesn’t love a sun-soaked love story?
