Comedian and actor Pete Davidson and model-actor Elsie Hewitt have welcomed their first child, a baby girl named Scottie Rose Hewitt Davidson. The couple announced the joyful news shortly after her birth on December 12, 2025, marking a significant milestone in their relationship and Davidson’s long-held dream of becoming a father.
Birth Announcement and Personal Significance
Hewitt shared the news on social media, posting intimate moments of their new family alongside the birth date. She expressed her emotions, stating, “Our perfect angel girl arrived 12/12/2025. My best work yet, I am absolutely overflowing with love and gratitude and disbelief.” The announcement included a playful message from Davidson, who wrote, “wu tang forever.”
The name they chose carries deep personal significance. The first name, Scottie, pays tribute to Davidson’s late father, Scott Davidson, a firefighter who lost his life during the September 11 attacks in New York City. The middle name, Rose, is a nod to Hewitt, as it is also her own middle name. The couple opted for a low-key approach, choosing to protect their daughter’s identity by covering her face with a heart emoji in their shared photos.
Public Support and Personal Reflections
Davidson and Hewitt first went public with their relationship in March 2025. They announced their pregnancy in July, receiving an outpouring of support from fans and friends. Davidson has been candid about his desire to become a father, often sharing how losing his father at the age of seven shaped his aspirations for parenthood. In a conversation with E! News, he described feeling “lucky” and “happy,” noting the excitement from those around him regarding his new role as a dad.
Support from his peers has been notable, with longtime friend and former Saturday Night Live castmate Kenan Thompson expressing confidence in Davidson’s parenting skills. In an interview with Parade, Thompson remarked that he believes Davidson will be a “hyper-dedicated dad.”
This new chapter in their lives not only brings joy to Davidson and Hewitt but also highlights the importance of family and personal legacy in their story. As they embark on this journey together, fans are eager to see how they navigate the joys and challenges of parenthood.
