Elsie Hewitt welcomed the New Year in a heartfelt manner, sharing intimate glimpses of her life as a new mother alongside partner Pete Davidson. On December 31, 2025, she posted a series of photos on Instagram that highlighted the contrast between her past celebrations and the joy of motherhood.
Reflecting on her transformation into parenthood, Hewitt began her posts with a question for fellow new parents: “What are all the new parents doing this NYE? Is it sooo different than past new years?” The accompanying selfie showcased her in a casual setting, a stark contrast to her glamorous New Year’s Eve from the previous year.
In a nostalgic comparison, Hewitt shared a throwback photo from December 31, 2024. In that image, she looked radiant in evening attire, complete with sleek hair and festive makeup, posing against a backdrop of black-and-gold streamers. The text overlay read: “Me last New Year’s Eve.” The subsequent photo depicted a different scene, with a bare-faced Hewitt smiling gently, her newborn daughter, Scottie Rose, nearby in a crib. The ambiance shifted from party decor to a practical setting featuring a stroller and nursing pillow. “Me this New Year’s Eve,” she wrote, adding a teary-eyed smiling emoji to convey her emotions.
Scottie Rose, born on December 12, 2025, carries significant meaning for Davidson, as her name honors his late father, FDNY Firefighter Scott Davidson, who tragically lost his life during the September 11 attacks when Pete was just seven years old. Davidson has often spoken about the profound influence his father had on him, recalling fond memories and the nickname “Scotty” that friends used.
The arrival of their daughter marks a pivotal moment in Davidson’s life, particularly as he has publicly discussed the shifts in his lifestyle over the past year. In interviews, he has expressed a desire to slow down and embrace fatherhood. This transition is evident in his recent acquisition of a “dad van,” equipped with a VHS player, and his aspirations to share his love for shows like The Sopranos with his child.
The New Year’s Eve posts not only celebrate the joy of parenthood but also reflect the couple’s approach to sharing this new chapter in their lives—one that is intimate and genuine, resonating with many new parents navigating similar experiences. As Hewitt and Davidson embark on this journey, their story serves as a reminder of the profound changes that come with welcoming a child into the world.
