Pete Davidson has a new love in his life.
The Saturday Night Live alum, 31, is dating model Elsie Hewitt, a source confirms to PEOPLE. The pair were seen enjoying a romantic beach getaway over the weekend.
Davidson was photographed packing on the PDA with Hewitt, 29, in Palm Beach over the weekend in photos obtained by The Daily Mail. In the pictures, the comedian couldn’t keep his hands off the model as they kissed and held hands on the beach.
He even carried her while they took a dip in the ocean, and at one point, cameras captured them touching tongues as they went in for more kisses.
A rep for Davidson did not immediately respond to PEOPLE’s request for comment.

Davidson’s new relationship status comes after his July breakup from Outer Banks actress Madelyn Cline, who PEOPLE confirmed he was dating in September 2023. The pair kept things very lowkey during their 10 months together, though Cline, 27, was by his side at the afterparty following his SNL hosting gig in October 2023. A source told PEOPLE they were “very lovey” and “very cute” at the party, “but they kept to themselves.”
Prior to Cline, Davidson was linked to actress Chase Sui Wonders, who he dated for less than a year in 2023. He and Wonders split in August 2023, a source confirmed at the time.
Hewitt — whose identity was first reported by Page Six — was most recently linked to Jason Sudeikis. She has also previously been connected to Benny Blanco and Ryan Phillippe.

Davidson recently opened up about how he’s struggled with the scrutiny over his dating life over the years, as he told Page Six last month that attention was “pretty humiliating and upsetting.”
“Everyone is dating everyone and it’s Hollywood,” he said, referencing the dating lives of his peers including Paul Mescal, Timothée Chalamet and Barry Keoghan. “But because I’m ugly, they wrote about me. I was harassed for like, five years and it made my life a living hell.”
He continued, “It’s embarrassing because you want people to write about your work. I was one of the youngest-ever cast members on SNL and all that got pushed to the side because of who I was dating.”
Davidson said he’s had “some pretty adult relationships with some pretty amazing women” and that his breakups tend to be drama-free. “When it’s ended, it’s been cool.”

The comedian’s candid comments echoed what a source told PEOPLE in October, which was that Davidson is “still friends with pretty much all his exes.”
“Nothing bad happened between him and Madelyn. It just ran its course,” the source said. “He’s a good guy and they root for him.”
