Pete Davidson revealed why he felt ‘guilty’ about his girlfriend Elsie Hewitt’s pregnancy.

The 31-year-old comedian admitted that he initially ‘felt bad’ after they shared their pregnancy news with the world.

Last month, his girlfriend, a 29-year-old model and actress, announced their upcoming addition to the family on social media. She posted pictures of the soon-to-be parents and a sonogram, humorously captioning it: ‘Welp now everyone knows we had sex.’

While making an appearance on Wednesday’s episode of The Breakfast Club, he said he felt bad that her pregnancy would be in the public eye. 

‘I feel bad for my girl because I bring a lot of s***. Anything I do or she does now is gonna be a thing,’ he said. 

The former Saturday Night Live star had previously expressed his excitement about becoming a father for the first time, while also voicing his concerns about the public scrutiny that comes with fame.

‘She’s a very private person and she’s the one doing all the work,’ he added. ‘It’s supposed to be a beautiful experience.’ 

Davidson further explained that although his girlfriend never complained about the media attention, he felt remorseful about the increased focus on her during her pregnancy.

‘She’s never made me feel this way or said anything but I feel so guilty and horrible that I could not allow her to have the ideal pregnancy that almost every woman gets to have and enjoy,’ he said. 

The couple have been dating for less than half a year and were first romantically linked in March. 

The pair were first spotted packing on the PDA during a romantic getaway in Miami, Florida. 

The following week, they made their whirlwind romance Instagram official when Hewitt posted a photo of Davidson on her social media. 

In May, the pair made their red carpet debut at the Endometriosis Foundation of America’s 2025 Blossom Ball. 

At the event, she gushed about the actor supporting her. ‘He’s so incredible,’ she told People at the time. Honestly, best person I’ve ever met, and I’m so grateful that he’s here tonight.’

The model has been vocal about her endometriosis diagnosis in the past, and at the gala, she revealed how her boyfriend takes care of her when she’s dealing with the ‘painful’ symptoms of the condition. 

‘Pete sets me up with a little heating pad, and it’s very sweet, and I just eat whatever. I’m like, I will allow myself to eat whatever I want and just snuggle up and watch a movie and get cozy. Everyone deserves a Pete!’ 

Around that same time, the pair were said to have already moved in together after just weeks of dating. 

In late July, Davidson confessed his feelings about becoming a father for the first time with his girlfriend early into their relationship.

‘I’m very lucky and very, very happy,’ he told E! News at the premiere of The Home in New York City. 

He admitted that being a dad has been his ‘dream’ and several of his A-list pals reached out to him with advice. 

Davidson then clarified that his girlfriend had never complained about being in the spotlight but added that he felt bad about the added attention while she is pregnant; pictured May in New York City

He explained that he is looking forward to ‘being able to take care of something and show it the childhood I didn’t have.’ 

‘I assume you just try and give them what you didn’t have, and what you didn’t like, not to do it.’ 

He also said that several of his pals, who are already dads, have offered him advice ahead of his baby’s birth in the winter. 

‘Everybody’s just been super excited for me, because they know it’s been my dream,’ he said. ‘They all just have been like, “You’re going to be great at this. It’s the best thing you’ll ever do in your life.” [Adam] Sandler gave me some great advice.’ 

The dad-to-be added: ‘It’s been really nice that everyone’s super excited. When you do something, when we do anything, you want everyone to be excited, especially having a child.’
