Pete Davidson's Guilty Pleasure: Being a New Dad?

In a shocking revelation, Saturday Night Live alum Pete Davidson has confessed to feeling guilty about his girlfriend Elsie Hewitt's pregnancy going public. The 31-year-old comedian, known for his wit and charm on screen, seems to be struggling with the added attention that comes with being a soon-to-be father.

The model and actress, 29, had shared the news of their impending arrival on social media, complete with adorable sonogram photos and a cheeky caption that read: "Welp now everyone knows we had sex." While Hewitt's fans were overjoyed for the couple, Davidson seemed less than thrilled about the spotlight shining down on his girlfriend.

The 31-year-old comedian admitted that he initially 'felt bad' after they shared their pregnancy news with the world

During an appearance on The Breakfast Club, Davidson opened up about his concerns, admitting that he feels bad for putting Hewitt in the public eye. "I feel bad for my girl because I bring a lot of s*. Anything I do or she does now is gonna be a thing," he said candidly. It's clear that Davidson wants to shield his partner from the harsh glare of the media, but it seems like an impossible task when you're in the public eye.

The couple's whirlwind romance has been making headlines since they first stepped out together in March. They've been spotted packing on the PDA during romantic getaways and have even made their red carpet debut at high-profile events. But despite their obvious love for each other, Davidson can't shake off the feeling that he's putting Hewitt in harm's way.

"I feel so guilty and horrible that I could not allow her to have the ideal pregnancy that almost every woman gets to have and enjoy," he confessed on The Breakfast Club. It's clear that Davidson is worried about his girlfriend's well-being, but it's also possible that he's feeling a little overwhelmed by the added responsibility of being a new dad.

While making an appearance on Wednesday's episode of The Breakfast Club, he said he felt bad that her pregnancy would be in the public eye

The couple has been open about their love for each other, with Hewitt gushing about Davidson's support during her endometriosis diagnosis. "He's so incredible," she told People at the time. "Honestly, best person I've ever met, and I'm so grateful that he's here tonight." It's clear that Hewitt values Davidson's love and care, but it's also possible that she's feeling a little overwhelmed by the attention.

As the couple prepares for their winter arrival, it seems like Davidson is shouldering the weight of responsibility. He's been open about his desire to be a good father, confessing to E! News that becoming a dad has been his "dream" for years. "I'm very lucky and very, very happy," he said with a smile. But despite his enthusiasm, it seems like Davidson is struggling to balance his love for Hewitt with the added pressure of being in the public eye.

As the spotlight continues to shine down on this young couple, it's clear that they're in this together – or at least, as much as possible when you're a celebrity. But one thing's for sure: Pete Davidson is feeling guilty about something, and we can't help but wonder what other surprises this new dad has up his sleeve.

Last month, his girlfriend, a 29-year-old model and actress, shared the news on social media with snapshots of the expecting parents and a sonogram photo, which she captioned: 'Welp now everyone knows we had sex'
