Who Is Elsie Hewitt? Meet Benny Blanco’s Ex and Pete Davidson’s Rumored Girlfriend

Hollywood and its celebrities are no stranger to messy love triangles. Who’s dating whom—and who they dated before—always seems to connect the most unexpected celebrities. Case in point: Pete Davidson has a rumored new girlfriend, and she isn’t unfamiliar with dating high-profile men. Elsie Hewitt, a 29-year-old model from the UK, was previously linked to Benny Blanco (Selena Gomez's fiancé) back in 2019.

Davidson’s love life and dating history is basically pop culture currency at this point—remember that Reformation campaign calling him the brand's own boyfriend?— and this latest rumored romance between the comedian and model has the internet abuzz, especially because of the timing. Blanco just released a collaborative album with Gomez, I Said I Love You First, and fans think several of Gomez's lyrics are about her fiancé's ex—likely, Hewitt.

With Elsie spotted alongside Davidson and Gomez's stans turning into full-blown detectives, there’s only one question left: Who is she? Keep scrolling to learn about Hewitt's dating history, modeling career, and more fun facts.

Elsie Hewitt is a 29-year-old model and self-proclaimed foodie originally from London, England. She moved to the U.S. at just 10 years old to pursue a career in modeling and acting. Her big break came in 2018 when she landed a Spring/Summer campaign with Guess, which helped launch her into the spotlight. Since then, she’s taken on a handful of on-screen roles, including appearances in Teenage Badass (2020) and "Benny Blanco & Juice WRLD: Graduation" (2019).

When she’s not in front of the camera, Hewitt is often in the kitchen or out exploring eateries. She shares her culinary adventures on her dedicated foodie Instagram account, @elsieeats, where she posts everything from home-cooked dishes to must-try bites from her travels.

Hewitt and her new rumored beau, Davidson, were spotted keeping things low-key in New York City in March. Just before, the comedian and model were photographed in Palm Beach, Florida, packing on the PDA on the beach, sparking an internet frenzy almost immediately. After their little vacation, they were seen in Brooklyn last weekend, hauling several bags and flagging down a black SUV, per Page Six.

However, the pair turned things more low-key lately because Davidson reportedly wants to do things differently and less high-profile compared to his previous love interests. Hewitt is Davidson's newest girlfriend. He has been linked with names such as Kim Kardashian, and more recently was rumored to be linked with Outer Banks actor Madelyn Cline. 

From 2019 to 2020, Hewitt was linked with Benny Blanco, and fans of Selena Gomez are starting to take a trip down memory lane to fill in some blanks from Gomez's and Blanco's new collaborative album, I Said I Love You First. While much of I Said I Love You First, touches on past heartbreak, one track in particular has fans spiraling—"Don’t Take It Personally." Unlike the breakup anthems, this one zeroes in on a woman from Blanco’s past, and the internet theorizes it’s Elsie Hewitt.

In the first two verses, Gomez opens up about her jealousy toward this unnamed woman, before affirming that Blanco ultimately chose her. The lyrics are vague enough to spark debate, but there’s a reason why fans are pointing to Hewitt: she’s the only other public relationship Blanco has had. The model and producer dated back in 2019, and with Hewitt suddenly back in the spotlight thanks to her rumored romance with Pete Davidson, the timing has some fans connecting the dots.

With the clues stacking up, fans are convinced Elsie might be the mysterious “her” Gomez is singing about. Adding even more fuel to the fire, social media has reignited the ongoing Selena vs. Hailey Bieber discourse.
