Pete Davidson reportedly leaned on friends and work commitments following the end of his relationship with Elsie Hewitt.

Sources close to the comedian said Davidson handled the breakup quietly while continuing to focus on co-parenting responsibilities tied to the couple’s daughter, Scottie.

“Pete has never sounded better than he has this week,” a source told Page Six after news of the split became public.

According to insiders, Davidson also received support from friends and fellow comedians during that period.

Friends and Colleagues Reportedly Supported Davidson

One source said Davidson’s recent professional projects helped lift his spirits following the breakup.

The insider pointed to Davidson’s appearance during a roast of Kevin Hart, where his performance reportedly received a strong response.

“Pete was really funny and no one took shots at him,” the source said.

Friends within the comedy community were also said to be rallying around him.

“The support he’s gotten from people has been great,” the insider added. “Everyone at the roast, his friends. He’s getting tons of support.”

Davidson has spoken publicly in the past about his struggles with depression and mental health challenges. Sources close to him said his support system remained important as he adjusted to changes in his personal life.

Pete Davidson and Elsie Hewitt Focused on Daughter Scottie

Davidson and Hewitt welcomed daughter Scottie before ultimately ending their relationship.

According to sources, both remained focused on co-parenting following the breakup and were committed to putting their daughter first.

“He’s always been consistently supportive,” one insider said. “He wants her to be in a good place. There’s a baby involved, and that’s their priority.”

Sources also claimed there was no expectation that the former couple would reconcile, despite continuing to work together as parents.

Another insider said both Davidson and Hewitt shifted their attention fully toward raising Scottie after deciding to separate.

“They are just focusing 100% on Scottie,” the source said.

Busy Work Schedule Reportedly Added Pressure

Several sources pointed to Davidson’s demanding work schedule as one factor that created tension in the relationship.

According to one insider, Davidson’s travel commitments made it difficult for the couple to spend consistent time together after becoming parents.

“Pete has been traveling so much for work, but Elsie was craving more support from him at home after their daughter was born,” the source claimed. “It was very hard for him because, obviously, he has to work to make money.”

Another source said the pair attempted to manage the distance and scheduling challenges but eventually realized the relationship was no longer working.

“When he was away, he’d try to be home for a couple of days or she’d visit, but they definitely had their issues,” the insider explained. “Ultimately, [the relationship had] run its course.”

Davidson Reportedly Continued Financial and Emotional Support

Sources close to Davidson said he remained committed to supporting Hewitt and their daughter after the breakup.

One insider claimed Davidson adjusted his schedule and made efforts to remain involved both physically and financially.

The same source alleged Davidson covered major household and family-related expenses connected to Hewitt and Scottie.

“Pete has been paying for everything related to Elsie and Scottie,” the insider said, including “the rent, their living expenses, their health insurance.”

According to the source, personal disagreements ultimately led to the breakup, but Davidson’s commitment to fatherhood remained unchanged.

Neither Davidson Nor Hewitt Publicly Addressed the Breakup

Despite widespread media attention surrounding Davidson’s relationships over the years, neither he nor Hewitt publicly commented on the split.

Both remained active online but chose not to directly respond to reports about the end of their relationship.

Davidson has often kept details of his personal life relatively private despite constant public interest tied to his dating history and celebrity status.

Sources close to the former couple maintained that their primary concern remained creating a stable environment for Scottie while navigating co-parenting after the relationship ended.
