Pete Davidson and Elsie Hewitt Welcome ‘Perfect’ Baby Girl, Scottie—as Family of 3 Hunkers Down at Comedian’s Upstate New York Retreat

by Charlie Lankston

Comedian Pete Davidson has become a father for the first time after his girlfriend, actress Elsie Hewitt, gave birth to a "perfect angel girl" named Scottie Rose Hewitt Davidson.

The happy couple announced the arrival of their baby girl on Instagram on Dec. 18—six days after Scottie was born at a New York City hospital—sharing a series of images of themselves welcoming their bundle of joy into their family home upstate.

"My best work yet, I am absolutely overflowing with love and gratitude and disbelief," Hewitt wrote in her post, revealing that her daughter arrived on Dec. 12.

Davidson, 32, and Hewitt, 29, announced in July that they were expecting their first child together, just a few months after it was revealed that they were living together.

In a series of photos and videos, the couple can be seen embracing their newborn daughter in hospital, before driving her back through snowy landscapes to Davidson's upstate New York abode, which he revealed during a February appearance on "Late Night with Seth Meyers" he had moved to.

In one photo, the new parents are seen cuddling up to their baby girl while posing in front of a huge floor-to-ceiling window, with the snow-covered ground seen behind them.

Another snap captures Hewitt enjoying a tender moment with her daughter, standing in front of the same window, which opens up to a stunning vista of trees, snow-topped grass, and a frozen pond, with a sprawling terrace seen directly behind her.

The couple also shared several images of themselves in their hospital room in Manhattan, with Davidson seen giving his daughter a bottle, while sitting on a couch in Hewitt's room, the city skyline visible through the window behind him.

Hewitt also revealed the first big meal she treated herself to after giving birth: a box of takeout sushi, complete with some edamame and a tiny bottle of soy sauce, which she photographed in front of her sleeping baby.

The final post in the carousel of images and videos was a clip of the couple's drive home, showing snow-covered trees and darkening skies as they made the journey back to their upstate escape.

That property also served as the backdrop for the couple's pregnancy announcement in July, when they shared several photos of themselves posing in much warmer climes, with Hewitt proudly showing off her growing baby bump.

"Welp now everyone knows we had sex," the cheeky caption of the post read.

News of the pregnancy came just four months after Hewitt and Davidson confirmed their relationship on Instagram, where the model shared a video of the "SNL" alum in a white bathrobe.

Just a few weeks later, sources told People that the loved-up duo had taken the next step in their romance by moving in together—with the insider claiming that they were splitting their time between Davidson's property upstate and a rented brownstone in Brooklyn.

"Pete and Elsie have been living together in New York for the past few months," the unnamed source shared. "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."

The comedian revealed in February 2022 that he was leaving his longtime home in Staten Island—where he was born and raised—in order to relocate to Brooklyn, initially taking up residence in a rented penthouse apartment.

That penthouse, which is in Brooklyn Heights, was later put back on the rental market just one year after Davidson moved in, with a sky-high asking price of $30,000 a month, although that was later dropped to $23,000 a month.

Meanwhile, the actor put his former Staten Island abode on the market for $1.3 million in 2022—although records indicate that he still owns a home in the area, along with his sister, Casey, who is also named on the deed.

That property was purchased for $1.3 million back in 2016, although it's unclear whether Davidson has ever actually lived there or if his sister is the main occupant.

While Davidson is understood to still have a home base in Brooklyn in the form of a brownstone rental, his primary abode is located "in the woods," he revealed on "Late Night with Seth Meyers."

Noting that Davidson's choice of location might have come as a surprise to some, Meyers joked: "Not a lot of us predicted you in the woods."

"I know," the Staten Island native replied, adding: "My neighbors are very confused."

Though the comedian has revealed few details about the home, his desire to move to a more remote location was initially revealed by a rather unlikely source: lifestyle guru Martha Stewart.

Back in 2023, when Davidson was still dating Chase Sui Wonders, Stewart revealed that the couple had been house-hunting near her own farm in upstate New York.

"Pete's looking for a house in my neighborhood," the famed cooking expert said during an appearance on Access Hollywood. "So he came over to see my farm and understand what it was like to live in and around Bedford.

"He had such a nice time; came up to the house and chatted for a while. He seems very happy."

While Davidson's relationship with Wonders ran its course not long after that visit, the actor has always been open about his dream of one day starting a family, telling fellow comedian Kevin Hart in 2022 that it was his "favorite" goal.

"My favorite thing ever, which I’m yet to achieve, is I wanna have a kid," he admitted. "It’s super corny, but it would be so fun to dress up a little dude.

"I’m so excited for that chapter so that’s kind of what I’m just preparing for now, is trying to be like good as a dude and develop and get better so when that happens it’s just easier."
