Pete Davidson was spotted in New York City on Saturday with his new girlfriend, Elsie Hewitt. The sighting comes just days after the comedian and his new flame soaked up the sun in Palm Beach. The 31-year-old comedian, known for his high-profile relationships, appears to be keeping this one more low-key.
Unlike his string of celebrity exes, Hewitt is notably a ‘non-celebrity’. Bundled up for a chilly night in the Big Apple, Davidson sported a black leather jacket, matching pants, and a hoodie. Hewitt contrasted him in a chic all-white winter ensemble.
Their outing follows a wave of fan confusion over Davidson’s tattooed torso, which was on full display during his Palm Beach getaway. This confusion arises despite Davidson previously undergoing a painful and expensive laser removal process. One follower questioned online, “Confused?

Didn’t he laser his tattoos?” Another echoed, “Didn’t he laser off his tattoos? Or am I imagining that?” A third simply added, “I thought he got rid of all the tattoos.”
However, one Instagram user came to his defense, writing, “Holy moly people, yes he has removed a lot of tattoos, just not all of them yet.
His arms were blasted before so he’s obviously started there.”
According to a source, Davidson dropped a hefty $200,000 on the removal process. “He just woke up one day and wanted them gone, and it’s been a years-long process,” the source revealed. The comedian, who has been sober since September and gained twenty pounds, opted to remove his tattoos as a ‘fresh start.’ Davidson opened up about the excruciating tattoo removal process, describing it as “pretty terrible.”
News of Davidson’s hot new romance emerged earlier this week, with sources describing Hewitt as a ‘non-celebrity’ and unlike ‘anybody else he’s ever dated.’ According to sources, Davidson is ‘very happy’ with the woman, who ‘respects Pete and his desire for privacy.’
Davidson has attracted significant attention over his personal life in recent years.
His previous high-profile relationships include his whirlwind engagement to Ariana Grande, as well as relationships with Kate Beckinsale, Margaret Qualley, Kaia Gerber, and Kim Kardashian. He famously sparked up a relationship with Kardashian after the two first crossed paths when she was a guest star on “Saturday Night Live.” However, their split was revealed in August 2022 after nine months of dating. The comedian seems to be embracing a new chapter in his life, focusing on his sobriety, his fresh tattoo-free appearance, and his new relationship with Elsie Hewitt.
Fans will undoubtedly keep a close eye on this latest development in Davidson’s personal life.
