Pete Davidson and Elsie Hewitt have been together since March 2025. A few months later, in July 2025, they shared the news that they were expecting their first child. Their daughter, Scottie Rose, was born on December 12, 2025. She was named after Davidson's father, Scott Matthew Davidson, who was a New York City firefighter and lost his life during the 9/11 attacks, according to PEOPLE magazine.
Earlier this year, Davidson spoke to PEOPLE magazine about becoming a father and how it has changed him. He had said, "Dad life is f--king awesome," while also calling the experience both exhausting and rewarding. He also praised Hewitt, saying she is a "fantastic mom."
Davidson also spoke about feeling more protective after becoming a father. He shared that he now feels a strong instinct to protect his child, something he had never experienced before.
Since their daughter's birth, the couple has shared glimpses of their life as parents on social media. However, they have chosen not to show their daughter's face in public posts.
