Elsie Hewitt shouted out Pete Davidson as her “baby daddy” on Instagram after he scored her tickets to an Olivia Dean concert.
The model, 30, posted a roundup of photos from the show on Tuesday, tagging the comedian, 32, in her caption and revealing a milestone their 8-month-old daughter had just hit. “thanks to my baby daddy for the tix!!! 🤣” Hewitt wrote on the Instagram post. She told followers that “Scottie crawled for the first time to” Dean’s music, adding that the British singer-songwriter’s album has soundtracked their entire year.
“we dance to Olivia Dean every day. It’s our album. Her music has given me so much and been with us thru every up and down this year,” Hewitt shared in the caption.
The former couple’s relationship has indeed seen dramatic swings since they welcomed Scottie Rose in December 2025. “I hope whoever fumbled her is shaking in their boots but hey thanks for some of the inspo behind ‘The Art of Loving’ [album],” Hewitt continued in her post, referencing Dean’s project. The previous evening, she had documented her “mommies night out” on her Instagram Story, including the moment Dean played “one of [her] and Scottie’s … favorite songs ever.”
Hewitt’s public gratitude marks a notable shift in tone from just two months ago. In May, she made headlines for a TikTok video in which she said she was raising Scottie “on [her] own,” which was “hard.” A source said at the time that the pair were “already struggling a bit while Elsie was pregnant” and that “things just happened so quickly between them and they didn’t know each other very well.”
Davidson’s friends pushed back on any suggestion he was absent. His pals insisted to Page Six that the “Saturday Night Live” alum has been “fully committed to being a good dad” and “paying for everything related to Elsie and Scottie.” A source close to Davidson said in May that “Pete has made himself extremely available and has provided full financial support” and was “actually covering all Scottie’s costs and more.”
The “King of Staten Island” star and Hewitt reached a formal co-parenting agreement in July, releasing a joint statement calling Scottie their “top priority.” The former couple insisted, “We are fully committed to working together to give her love from both of us.”
In the viral moment that defined their split, Hewitt posted a TikTok video in May responding to paparazzi photos of her out with Scottie. “yeah yeah, I know. I’m tired, okay? I should’ve looked cuter yesterday before I left the house. I should’ve known,” she said in the clip. She then confirmed she was handling solo parenting and work: “But I don’t have time to think about that right now because I have a baby to take care of. I have to work and make money, and it’s just me, and it’s hard.” When a fan commented hoping she didn’t mean she was carrying the financial load alone, Hewitt replied “yeah:)” in a since-deleted response.
Despite those tensions, Hewitt has continued to share glowing updates about Scottie. When she debuted her daughter on Instagram in December, she wrote, “my best work yet, i am absolutely overflowing with love and gratitude and disbelief.” Last month, she celebrated Scottie completing her first swimming lesson with a post showing the baby in a strawberry-print bathing suit. “my lil strawberry’s first time swimming,” the proud mom wrote. “my heart’s millionth time exploding🍓🍓🫀🫀💓🧑🧒♥️”
Davidson, meanwhile, has been navigating his own new chapter. Earlier this month, he sparked romance rumors with “Love Thy Nader” star Sarah Jane Nader after a cozy Brooklyn outing, though a source said they’re “just friends and nothing more.” The comedian has also maintained an active stand-up schedule, with upcoming shows scheduled for Minneapolis.
