Elsie Hewitt's Complete Dating History—Up to Her Pete Davidson Chapter
After dating a plethora of famous women, including Ariana Grande, Madelyn Cline, Kaia Gerber, and Kim Kardashian, Saturday Night Live alum Pete Davidson is expecting a baby with Elsie Hewitt. A London-born model, Hewitt relocated to Los Angeles when she was 10 years old. Before starting her relationship with Davidson, the actress—who recently appeared in an episode of Industry—has been linked to several other high-profile celebrities. Here's what you need to know about Hewitt's dating history. While there are no photos of Hewitt with actor Ryan Phillippe, the pair reportedly dated in 2017. According to People, after the short-lived romance, a then-21-year-old Hewitt 'filed a civil suit in September 2017 against Phillippe, then 43, claiming he got violent after the pair had a fight in July 2017.' An LAPD spokesperson confirmed to the outlet that 'officers made a report into the alleged attack and granted Hewitt an emergency protective order.' Phillippe denied the allegations in a statement posted on X. In court documents obtained by The Blast, Hewitt alleged that Phillippe 'violently threw her down his staircase as hard he could.' The Cruel Intentions star responded in his deposition, saying, '[I]t hadn't occurred to me to call the cops. I'm a famous person. I didn't want to bring that kind of attention to me and my house. And so I attempted to pick her up like a baby. Carrying. Like a child. With one arm under the back and one arm under the legs. And she was flailing. And I made it one step, and I fell back on my bottom, holding her. And that was it.' Page Six reported in October 2019 that Hewitt and Phillippe had settled the lawsuit out of court. Before getting engaged to Selena Gomez, Benny Blanco dated Hewitt. The music producer and model reportedly met while filming the music video for Juice WRLD's 'Graduation.' They subsequently appeared together in two episodes of the FX series Dave. In October 2019, Hewitt sang her partner's praises, writing on X, 'i just saw its #NationalBoyfriendDay i wish u were here instead of being on the titanic but thank u for existing and i don't know what i'd do without u.' The couple made their red carpet debut at the Spotify Best New Artist Party in January 2020, before breaking up later that year. During an appearance on the Good Company podcast in March 2024, Hewitt reflected on her famous ex, admitting, 'I get a little bit salty when my friends go to his house. I'll always love him.' Following her split from Blanco, Hewitt wasn't publicly linked to anyone else until she was spotted on a date with Ted Lasso star Jason Sudeikis in January 2024. In photos obtained by Page Six, the then-48-year-old actor was seen hugging the 27-year-old model at The Bird Streets Club in West Hollywood, California. In July 2024, a source spoke to Life & Style about the relationship, saying, 'Things are going well with Elsie, but Jason has finally come to understand that he has a lot of options and that women do like him for more than just his incredible success.' The insider added, 'Everybody's rooting for Jason and Elsie to make things work.' After attending the US Open in September 2024, Sudeikis and Hewitt didn't make any further public appearances together, and reportedly split later that year. Hewitt was first publicly linked to The King of Staten Island star Pete Davidson in March 2025, when photos captured the pair playfully frolicking in the ocean in Palm Beach—hard-launching their romance with a series of open-mouthed kisses. The same month, Hewitt shared an Instagram post featuring photos and videos taken with Davidson during a trip to Scotland. The couple's romance appeared to move fast, with People reporting in May 2025 that, per a source, the pair had 'been living together in New York for the past few months.' The source continued, 'They're splitting their time between Pete's house in upstate New York and a brownstone they recently started renting in so happy together and doing great.' Davidson accompanied Hewitt to the Endometriosis Foundation of America's 13th Annual Blossom Ball in New York City on May 15, 2025. Speaking to People at the event, the model said of her comedian boyfriend, 'He is so best person I've ever met, and I'm so grateful that he's here tonight.' Hewitt—who lives with endometriosis—told the outlet that Davidson is an incredibly supportive partner, particularly when it comes to soothing her more 'painful' symptoms. 'Pete sets me up with a little heating pad, and it's very sweet, and I just eat whatever,' she explained. 'I'm like, I will allow myself to eat whatever I want and just snuggle up and watch a movie and get deserves a Pete!' After the Fourth of July, the model shared photos from her celebration with Davidson and friends, captioning her Instagram post, 'some happi & grateful moments that got me thru a weird chaotic month.' On July 16, 2025, TMZ revealed that Hewitt is expecting her first child with Davidson, with the baby reportedly 'due this winter.' The outlet noted, 'We're told the pair couldn't be more excited.' The same day, Hewitt confirmed the news on Instagram with a photo dump featuring her ultrasound, along with the caption, 'welp now everyone knows we had sex.' Davidson was quick to share his excitement regarding the pregnancy, telling E! News, 'I'm very lucky and very, very happy.' He said of his future child, 'I assume you just try to give them what you didn't have, and what you didn't like, not do it.' The Bupkis creator revealed that friends and family are 'super excited' about the baby news, 'because they know it's been my dream.' Pete told the outlet, 'They all just have been like, 'You're going to be great at this. It's the best thing you'll ever do in your life.'' Unsurprisingly, Hewitt reportedly shares her boyfriend's enthusiasm about becoming a parent, with a source confirming to Entertainment Tonight (via Instagram), 'Elsie has been wanting to start a family for quite some time, and is happy to be doing it with always wanted to be a mom.'

"There were elements of me that were afraid": Ryan Phillippe on playing gay teen in 'One Life To Live' in early 1990s
Actor Ryan Phillippe admitted that a part of him was "afraid" when he accepted the role of Billy Douglas on the popular daytime soap opera 'One Life to Live' in the early 1990s, reported People. The character was the first gay teenager in daytime television history. Phillippe played Billy for a year on the show and said it was a "really profound experience" for him. In an interview with People, the actor admitted that he was "afraid" when he was young while accepting the role of a gay character in the series. "I was so young that there were elements of me that were afraid because it was such a different time," Philippe said, adding that people close to him also advised him to turn down the role and discouraged him from accepting the part, as quoted by People magazine. "I think there were some fears associated with the point in time that we were at and it being before so many walls and ceilings have been broken in that regard. But I know that any fears that anyone had about me doing it immediately went away once I saw the reaction that it got from the people who viewed it," said Philippe as quoted by People magazine. However, despite the fear, the actor chose the role that rewarded him handsomely. Phillippe was widely loved by the fans of the show and the people of the LGBTQ+ community. In an interview with People, the actor said that the feedback from 'One Life to Live' viewers about his role as Billy was "almost instantaneous," as fan mail started pouring in. ' He remembers hearing from fans who had "never seen someone represent me in any entertainment before in my life." Phillippe would also get mail from parents saying: "Watching this show on my lunch break gave me a way to connect with my LGBTQ child," reported People. "And I was only 17 years old, so you don't really have a sense of that. It was such a different time, but I very much matured through having had that experience and seeing the impact that it had for others," added Phillippe as quoted by People.

Ryan Phillippe, Michael Cimino: 'Motorheads' characters mature by repairing cars
LOS ANGELES, May 20 (UPI) -- Ryan Phillippe and Michael Cimino say their new show, Motorheads, premiering Tuesday on Prime Video, shows teenagers maturing through working on cars. Phillippe, 50, plays Logan Maddox, a mechanic whose sister, Samantha (Nathalie Torres), moves back to their hometown with her two children, daughter Caitlyn (Melissa Collazo) and son Zac (Cimino). Logan lets Zac and his friends use his shop to fix up their cars, but can't stop them from racing against their classmates. In a recent Zoom interview with UPI, Phillippe and Cimino agreed that auto work and other crafts teach valuable skills and lessons. "It requires commitment and patience," Phillippe said. "Any time kids have a project that means something, that they're passionate about, is a good point of focus." For Phillippe, prior to acting, that focus was Tae Kwon Do and Aikido, which he still practices. "When I was very young and I got into martial arts, that taught me a lot of discipline and focus," he said. Cimino, 25, added that the process of maturing also requires making mistakes from which one can learn, something Zac does. Cimino previously played high schoolers in the series Love, Victor and Never Have I Ever, and in films like Senior Year. "The way he's learning how to express himself is through racing and honestly, through making those mistakes and hanging out with the wrong people," Cimino said. "Zac is very much trying to find his own path and forge his way." Cimino and his character share an interest in cars. The week of his interview, Cimino had completed an auto project of his own. "I have two Miatas and there was one I was working on this week," he said. "I was changing the brakes and upgrading it and I just got it running again." Cimino praised the Mazda Miata's weight distribution, which he said makes it more maneuverable than other models. "I think there's something fun about driving a slow car fast," he said. "You don't need a really fast car to enjoy ripping through the canyons." The actors also appreciate how Motorheads shows how the characters improve with practice. Cimino believes in the rule, popularized by Malcolm Gladwell, that mastery takes thousands of hours of experience. "I still take acting class," Cimino said. "I really find it interesting to work with people like Ryan or people that just have way more experience than me. I feel like I learned so much from that." Phillippe agreed with that lesson. He was a teenager when he debuted on the soap opera One Life to Live in 1993, and appeared in movies from Crimson Tide and Crash to Gosford Park and Macgruber in his 20s and 30s. "Natural talent will only take you so far," Phillippe said. "Everything has to be honed and it has to be cultivated from that point." When it came to driving on Motorheads, Cimino let the stunt drivers handle the scenes. Though Cimino obtained a Level 2 stunt driving certification, he understood the production not allowing its lead actors behind the wheel. "With insurance and everything like that, realistically it's more wise to let someone else drive," Cimino said. "I'm hoping for the day that I can really hop behind the wheel and show my stuff." Cimino was allowed to drive Dottie, a training vehicle the characters practice on in a junkyard. "When I was driving it, we had a bunch of cameras strapped to it so like you better drive carefully," Cimino said. "Like, don't crash this car now because there's a bunch of cameras on it. So I had to drive it very slowly." Having been a part of teen ensembles like Cruel Intentions and I Know What You Did Last Summer, Phillippe enjoyed his new role as a mentor. "I felt a little bit like Yoda on set sometimes," he joked. "It's a great group of kids. It's infectious to be around that kind of energy. I like to share whatever I can in regards to my experience to help them with where they're headed. So it's a really nice position to be in." Those two Phillippe movies in particular have been revived with new casts: Prime Video produced a Cruel Intentions series last year and a new I Know What You Did Last Summer movie opens this summer. Jennifer Love Hewitt reprises her role from the original I Know What You Did Last Summer, in which Phillippe's character did not survive. "It certainly makes me feel a little bit like a dinosaur, the fact that they're remaking so many projects that I've been in," Phillippe said. "It's certainly a compliment for the originals that we made and I'm curious to see what the new I Know What You Did Last Summer movie is like. It's always fun to see who they cast and which direction they go to modernize."

Reese Witherspoon's Ex Ryan Phillippe Begs Actress to Help Mend His Relationship With Estranged Daughter: Report
Reese Witherspoon's ex, Ryan Phillippe, is allegedly reaching out to the actress to get him in contact with his estranged daughter, Ava. The Your Place or Mine star and Ava share a good bond, but it isn't the same for the actor. The Lincoln Lawyer star and Witherspoon share two kids from their relationship. The things, however, did not work out and the former couple split in 2006. While the exes have been on civil terms since the breakup, their daughter has completely shut her father off after Phillippe made an out-of-court settlement in a domestic abuse case. Previously in conversation with the media portal, the actor opened up about his equation with The Morning Show star. He said, "We were always united in support of them. They're both adults, but she and I have a friendship, and we still have calls about various things in their lives." According to The Hollywood Reporter, Phillippe has not been in contact with his daughter for several years now. A source close to the celebrities revealed, "Ava shut him out after he settled the claims out of court.' They further explained, "She started to see him differently—he wasn't this kind of hero who worshipped her anymore." Meanwhile, the reports suggested that Ava's decision to stay away from her father also came from her personal relationships. An insider shared, "She has girlfriends who've gone through terrible situations, some even worse, and she's seen how much it can break someone. She has zero tolerance for it, and Ryan did very little to change her mind." Despite being in a no-contact situation, Phillippe has not lost hope and is trying to get in touch with his daughter again through Witherspoon.
