Expectant dad Pete Davidson is opening up about his “dream.”
The “Saturday Night Live” alum and “Bupkis” star got candid with E! News about expecting his first child with girlfriend Elsie Hewitt, who announced her pregnancy in a July 16 Instagram post.
Davidson told E! at the New York premiere of “The Home” on July 22 that “everybody’s just been super excited for me, because they know it’s been my dream.”
“I’m very lucky and very, very happy,” Davidson told the entertainment outlet, adding that he is excited “to take care of something and show it the childhood I didn’t have. I assume you just try to give them what you didn’t have, and what you didn’t like, not do it.”

“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.’ (Adam) Sandler gave me some great advice,” he continued, revealing that Colin Jost has shared his advice, too.
Earlier this month, Hewitt shared a sweet carousel of photos, which also included a brief clip of the couple looking at their baby’s sonogram.
Other photos from the post featured a candid shot of Davidson and Hewitt snuggling while Hewitt cradled her growing baby bump, as well as an apropos SpongeBob SquarePants meme that read, “One of y’all hiding your pregnancy, I can feel it.”
“Welp, now everyone knows we had sex,” Hewitt captioned the cheeky pregnancy announcement. The couple’s news comes four months after he and Hewitt sparked speculation of a romance. Paparazzi photos of the then-rumored couple engaging in beach day PDA at a waterfront hotel in Palm Beach, Florida, were released by the Daily Mail.
After years of public ups and downs in the relationship department, including flings with some of the world’s most famous women, Davidson has seemingly found his happily ever after. He was previously engaged to music superstar Ariana Grande and also dated reality TV star Kim Kardashian.
Additionally, the comedian’s also been tied to Cazzie David, Kate Beckinsale, Margaret Qualley, Chase Sui Wonders, Madelyn Cline and Kaia Gerber.
