Elsie Hewitt welcomed the New Year by sharing a personal glimpse into her life as a new parent, posting heartfelt images of her and Pete Davidson’s newborn daughter on social media. On December 31, 2025, the actress reflected on the stark contrast between her celebrations this year and those of previous years through a series of Instagram stories.
In one post, Hewitt posed a question to her followers: “What are all the new parents doing this NYE? Is it sooo different than past New Year’s?” This inquiry set the tone for her nostalgic reflection. The following slide featured a vibrant image from December 31, 2024, where she appeared fully glamorized, standing in front of festive black-and-gold decorations, her hair styled in an elegant updo.
Reflecting on Change
In stark contrast, the next story revealed a more subdued setting. Hewitt shared a candid selfie, with her newborn daughter, Scottie Rose, nestled in a crib nearby. The background, devoid of party essentials, featured a stroller and nursing pillow. She captioned the image, “Me this New Year’s Eve,” adding a teary-eyed smiling emoji to convey her emotions.
Davidson did not appear in the photos, but the couple’s journey into parenthood has been characterized by intimacy and authenticity. They welcomed Scottie on December 12, 2025, and the name serves as a tribute to Davidson’s late father, Scott Davidson, who lost his life in the September 11 attacks when Pete was just seven years old.
Davidson has often shared memories of his father and the profound influence he had on his life, recalling the warmth of his smile and the nickname “Scotty” given by friends. This personal connection adds a layer of depth to the couple’s choice of name for their daughter.
A New Chapter for Davidson
The announcement of their daughter’s birth follows a transformative year for Davidson, marked by a shift in his public persona. In recent interviews, he has spoken about embracing fatherhood and making lifestyle changes. He even commissioned a “dad van,” equipped with a VHS player, reflecting his desire to create a nurturing environment for his child.
Davidson has also expressed his enthusiasm for sharing his interests with Scottie, including his love for classic television shows like “The Sopranos.” As he embarks on this new chapter, it is clear that both Hewitt and Davidson are navigating parenthood with a blend of joy and reflection, embracing the changes that come with their evolving family dynamic.
As the couple moves forward into 2026, their shared moments of vulnerability and authenticity resonate with many new parents, highlighting the profound and sometimes surprising journey of parenthood.
