Elsie Hewitt is doing her best to move forward after splitting up from Pete Davidson.
Over the weekend, the Industry actress confirmed all the biting rumors surrounding her and the stand-up comedian’s relationship: they’re dunzo just five months after welcoming their daughter together. The 30-year-old announced the news in a TikTok video where she claimed she’s now having to “work and make money” for baby Scottie Rose, and is “doing it on [her] own.”
@elsiehewitt priorities ?!?!
In a since-deleted response to a fan’s comment, Elsie even claimed she’s handling the “financial part” of things all by herself.
Sources in Pete’s camp have since denied that claim, revealing he’s “paying for everything related to Elsie and Scottie,” including “ rent, their living expenses, their health insurance,” and more:
“That’s not the reality at all … [the] truth is he is actually paying for everything. Pete is doing everything to be super supportive to Elsie, he’s changed his schedule, and done everything he can to be there physically and financially so Elsie can feel supported.”
Whatever the truth may be, what’s clear is Elsie and Pete are no longer a couple. Which makes raising a 5-month-old undeniably difficult, no matter what kind of support you have. But Elsie is soldiering on… or at least trying to!

In the days before AND after confirming her and Pete’s split, Elsie has taken to several of her social media accounts, including TikTok and Snapchat, to cue fans in on how she’s coping with her new reality. Two words: retail therapy! In one video shared over the weekend, Elsie noted she’s been “obsessed with buying baby clothes” for Scottie, before proceeding to show off a massive haul of vintage items.

In another video shared on Instagram earlier this month, Elsie opened up about the difficulties of feeding little baby Scottie, but finally being able to get into a groove. Hinting at her issues with Pete, the model said:
“It all sounds so trivial, but it was the most important thing happening in my world, and I had gotten to the bottom of it. Parenting is so hard. We need those ‘a-ha’ moments. That feeling of pride and accomplishment.”

But most recently, the mother opened her heart to thank fans for all their “supportive” words amid her breakup. In a video comparing the comments she receives on TikTok and Instagram, Elsie dished:
“I just want to say, TikTok is so much nicer than Instagram. Everyone on this app is, like, so supportive of one another. All of my comments are so kind. And Instagram — I think that’s, like, the general consensus. But, like, I see a huge difference “

In the comments section, fans rushed in with more supportive sentiments:
“THINKING OF YOU. you got this”
“Stay away from haters and IG. It’s not worth your energy”
“You’re so real and so are many of us. We are rooting for you guys to figure this all out.”
“Girl.. I adore u. Scottie is so [f**king] lucky”
“You didn’t deserve that. For some reason he has an issue with commitment and made a massive life decision without thinking about it. But it has nothing to do with you, you are so sweet and funny and kind snd hardworking and a thoughtful mama. We have your back girl”
“I never want to hear anyone call Pete hot ever again”
“You seem like such a devoted mom”
“YOU’RE DOING AMAZING”
That’s right, Elsie! You ARE doing amazing!! You’ve got this.
