Pete Davidson just stepped into a whole new chapter of his life — and it comes with sleepless nights, diaper changes, and apparently, a Wu-Tang Clan reference.
The former “Saturday Night Live” star welcomed his first child, a baby girl named Scottie Rose Hewitt Davidson, with girlfriend Elsie Hewitt on December 12, 2025.
Hewitt, a 29-year-old British model and actor, shared the news on Instagram with raw, intimate glimpses into their birth experience — complete with labor room selfies, post-delivery sushi, and Davidson’s own hilariously unexpected first-dad commentary.
This marks a major milestone for Davidson, who’s long been in the tabloid spotlight for his romantic life but is now navigating fatherhood for the very first time.
A Birth Announcement With Personality
Hewitt didn’t hold back in documenting the arrival of her daughter.
Her Instagram post featured candid snapshots from the hospital, showing the couple’s first family photo together and emotional moments from the delivery room. The model captioned the carousel with heartfelt words about their newborn.
Our perfect angel girl arrived 12/12/2025. My best work yet.
She continued, expressing the overwhelming emotions that come with becoming a parent.
I am absolutely overflowing with love and gratitude and disbelief.
Davidson’s contribution to the announcement? A typically offbeat celebratory message that left fans both confused and entertained.
Wu tang forever.
Classic Pete.
From First Kiss to First Baby in Under a Year
Davidson and Hewitt’s relationship moved fast.
The pair was first spotted kissing in Palm Beach, Florida, back in March 2025, sparking dating rumors almost immediately. Just two months after making things red carpet official, they dropped a pregnancy bombshell in July with Hewitt’s characteristically casual announcement.
welp now everyone knows we had sex.
The blunt humor and laid-back tone seem to define their relationship style — refreshingly unpolished in a world of curated celebrity narratives.
Davidson’s romantic history has included highly publicized relationships with Kim Kardashian and Ariana Grande, among others. Hewitt previously dated actor Jason Sudeikis and music producer Benny Blanco.
Post-Birth Recovery With a Painful Twist
As if delivering a baby wasn’t challenging enough, Hewitt revealed she faced an additional painful ordeal just one day after giving birth.
In an Instagram story posted Thursday, the new mom shared a selfie wearing a pink hoodie with an ice pack pressed against her cheeks while holding her daughter’s car seat. The reason? She had to get a wisdom tooth removed the day after leaving the hospital.
Who else had to get a wisdom tooth removed directly from the hospital the day after they gave birth.
Talk about adding insult to injury.
Recovery from childbirth alone involves significant physical and emotional adjustment. The postpartum period typically includes managing pain, hormonal shifts, sleep deprivation, and learning to care for a newborn — all while the body heals from the trauma of labor and delivery.
Throwing a dental surgery into that mix? That’s next-level resilience.
What New Parents Can Expect in the Early Days
Davidson and Hewitt are now navigating the whirlwind that is newborn care.
For first-time parents, those initial weeks can feel overwhelming. Sleep becomes fragmented, routines dissolve, and the learning curve is steep.
Here’s what experts say new parents should prioritize during the postpartum period:
- Rest whenever possible: Sleep deprivation is real. Nap when the baby naps, and don’t hesitate to ask for help.
- Support the birthing parent’s recovery: Physical healing takes time. Proper nutrition, hydration, and medical follow-ups are critical.
- Bond with your baby: Skin-to-skin contact, responsive feeding, and simply being present help establish attachment.
- Manage mental health: Postpartum mood changes are common. Watch for signs of postpartum depression or anxiety and seek support early.
- Accept imperfection: There’s no “right” way to parent. Trial, error, and flexibility are part of the process.
Hewitt’s candid sharing of her post-birth experience — wisdom tooth removal and all — reflects a growing trend among parents to embrace the messy, unglamorous reality of early parenthood.
A New Chapter for Pete Davidson
Fatherhood marks a significant turning point for Davidson, whose public persona has long been defined by his comedy, tattoos, and tabloid-worthy love life.
Now, the 32-year-old comedian faces the challenge — and joy — of raising a daughter alongside Hewitt.
Whether he’ll incorporate dad jokes into his stand-up or keep his parenting journey private remains to be seen. But if his “Wu tang forever” birth announcement is any indication, Davidson’s approach to fatherhood will likely be as unconventional and authentic as everything else he does.
For now, the couple appears focused on soaking up precious early moments with Scottie Rose — even if those moments include ice packs, sushi cravings, and a whole lot of sleepless nights ahead.
