Recently, Elsie Hewitt, a new mother, opened up about managing the responsibilities of parenthood and financial independence, following reports of her breakup with Pete Davidson. The couple had celebrated the arrival of their daughter, Scottie Rose, late last year, but it seems they have since decided to part ways.
Amidst this personal shift, Hewitt, 30, found herself addressing public scrutiny over her appearance. On a recent outing, she faced criticism, which prompted her to emphasize that her priorities have shifted now that she is a mother. “My focus isn’t on my appearance right now,” she shared with her TikTok audience. “I have a baby to care for and I need to work to support us, and I’m doing it all on my own, which is challenging.”
Her candid admission elicited a wave of concern and support from her followers, though it seems some of the comments have since been removed. One follower expressed hope that she wasn’t handling financial responsibilities alone, remarking, “That would be insane given the circumstances. You seem like a lovely person and a wonderful mother! We’re all rooting for you.”
‘That’s not what I’m thinking about right now, because I have a baby to take care of, and I also have to work and make money, and I’m doing it on my own, which is hard,’ she told her TikTok followers.
The video was captioned ‘priorities ?!?!’ and captured an ‘exhausted’ Hewitt speaking with followers from her couch.
Concerned commenters weighed in, with Hewitt responding in messages that appear to now be deleted.
Elsie Hewitt claimed she is caring for her baby daughter and supporting herself ‘on my own’ – amid a reported split from boyfriend Pete Davidson
Sources have refuted Hewitt’s claims with The Daily Mail, with one saying Davidson, 32, ‘covers all costs’ related to their daughter
‘I hope you don’t mean you’re doing the financial part alone… that would be insane given the circumstances. You seem like a lovely person and a wonderful mother! We’re all rooting for you,’ one commenter said.
‘I am :),’ Hewitt replied in a comment that appears to now be deleted.
‘Sorry but not staying with your partner when they are pp is insanely loser behavior. This is THE most vulnerable time in a woman’s life,’ another wrote.
‘Amen sis,’ she replied in another comment that is no longer up.
Sources, however, have refuted the claims Hewitt made in the video, telling The Daily Mail that Davidson, 32, ‘covers all costs’ related to their daughter.
A source close to the couple’s finances told The Daily Mail: ‘These posts make no sense, as she is well aware that Pete covers all costs associated with Scottie, including childcare, as well as Elsie’s rent and health insurance, among other expenses.’
Further, another source close to the couple said that Davidson has made spending time with Scottie a priority.
‘Pete has made himself completely available and has consistently prioritized spending time with their daughter, which he will continue to do,’ the source said. ‘He wants Elsie to be comfortable and successful.’
Daily Mail have reached out to representatives for Davidson and Hewitt for comment.
The proud parents welcomed daughter Scottie late last year but have reportedly gone their separate ways since then
The Sun reported last week that the couple had called it quits on their whirlwind relationship in part due to Davidson’s busy schedule.
‘Pete has been traveling so much for work, but Elsie was craving more support from him at home after their daughter was born,’ a source told The Sun of the new mother.
‘It was very hard for him because, obviously, he has to work to make money,’ the source added.
Another insider noted the split happened recently and that they are ‘just focusing 100%’ on their daughter. ‘Working out the best co-parenting solution is their top priority.’
Hewitt has been posting photos of her baby girl with Instagram followers since becoming a mother
Despite the split, both the actor and Hewitt are ‘working on things,’ a source told People in an article published on Friday.
‘They want one another to succeed and be happy. There have been points where they’ve split and have gotten back together.’
However, the insider added that it is not clear if the two stars will reunite or rekindle their romance in the future.
Hewitt and Davidson’s baby girl Scottie Rose was born late last year shortly before the Christmas holiday.
She recently advertised a position seeking a ‘right hand person’ to help her care for her child
Last week Hewitt announced she was seeking to hire a ‘right hand person’ to help care for her child.
‘I’m currently trying to find an assistant/mother’s helper/nanny type/basically right hand person,’ Hewitt posted to her Instagram.
‘Apply here if qualified & serious. only looking @ responses with resumes. ($ ofcourse).’
