Elsie Hewitt has spoken out for the first time following multiple high-profile reports claiming she has split from her boyfriend, Pete Davidson. The 30-year-old model and the 32-year-old comedian reportedly ended their relationship just months after welcoming their first child together, according to widespread reports published on Friday, May 15, 2026.
Amid the intensifying breakup rumors, Hewitt took to her Instagram Stories to give fans an unfiltered update on her current situation, focusing heavily on her exhausting new routine.
“When u finally get screaming baby down for a nap, and u exhale and sit with urself for a sec and realise you haven’t breathed for an hour or peed all day, the silence is deafening,” she penned.
Accompanying the candid note was a makeup-free selfie of the new mother, who appeared visibly shocked while opening up about the overwhelming daily demands of parenthood. In her very next social media slide, she simply wrote, “I am a zombie.”
Insider Claims Highlight Co-Parenting Commitments and Career Strains
Reports of trouble between the high-profile duo surfaced earlier this month, nearly five months after they officially became parents. Sources close to the situation allege that Davidson’s demanding professional schedule following their daughter’s birth created significant strain in the relationship.
However, despite the reported separation, insiders emphasize that the Saturday Night Live alum and the model are prioritizing their family duties:
Co-Parenting Focus: Sources claim that while Hewitt and Davidson have reportedly split, they remain fully committed to peacefully co-parenting their young baby.
Working Through It: A conflicting report suggests the door isn’t completely closed, claiming the couple is still actively trying to “work on things” behind the scenes.
“They want one another to succeed and be happy. There have been points where they’ve split and have gotten back together,” a tipster close to Hewitt and Davidson revealed to PEOPLE.
