Comedian Pete Davidson and his pregnant girlfriend Elsie Hewitt celebrated their impending parenthood with an intimate baby shower surrounded by close friends and loved ones, sharing a particularly sweet moment that captured their excitement.
Intimate Baby Shower Celebration
The 32-year-old Saturday Night Live alum and his 29-year-old model girlfriend, who first sparked romance rumours in March, hosted a lavish baby shower on Saturday where they shared a tender kiss after Hewitt participated in a nappy-changing competition.
Hewitt took to her main Instagram page to give followers a glimpse of the bunny-themed celebration, showcasing the couple's preparations for their first child together, due in July. The party featured numerous activities, including a lighthearted competition where guests raced to put nappies on teddy bears as quickly as possible.
In a charming clip from the event, Hewitt was filmed completing the nappy-changing task before turning to receive cheers from Davidson. The couple then shared a loving kiss, demonstrating their close bond as they approach parenthood.
Bunny-Themed Decor and Delights
The shower featured extensive bunny-themed decorations, with colourful balloons in shades of red, pink, tan and light green creating a festive atmosphere. Floral bouquets and scattered leaves enhanced the natural theme, while a three-layer cake adorned with intricate frosting took centre stage.
Hewitt, sporting a chic updo and a long-sleeved knit dress that showcased her growing baby bump, was photographed tasting the sugary icing from the elaborate dessert. The cake rested on a circular table decorated with artificial moss and grass, complete with a stuffed bunny perched on top.
Guests enjoyed a buffet of bagels with various toppings, including cream cheese and tomatoes served on silver trays alongside lit candles. Another table displayed nappies from brand Coterie with a sign reading: 'Happy baby shower Elsie xx Coterie.'
Pregnancy Announcement and Health Challenges
The couple first announced they were expecting in July, with Hewitt sharing an Instagram photo series that included an ultrasound image and playful captions. "Welp now everyone knows we had sex," she wrote alongside images of the couple cosying up together.
Despite the joyful occasion, Hewitt has been open about her pregnancy challenges, recently revealing she's experiencing "24/7 agony" that leaves her barely able to walk. She attributes the severe pain to pre-existing health conditions including endometriosis and Hypermobile Ehlers-Danlos syndrome (hEDS), a connective-tissue disorder affecting joints and mobility.
In emotional Instagram stories earlier this month, the model expressed her suffering despite trying numerous treatments including acupuncture, exercise and steroid injections. She reached out to followers for advice from others who have experienced pregnancy with hEDS, questioning whether her pain would subside after birth.
Davidson recently revealed during a Bumble interview that he knew Hewitt would be the mother of his children from their first date, with Hewitt confirming the comedian immediately agreed when she expressed the same feeling.
