Elsie Hewitt Shares Severe Pregnancy Pain from Health Issues

Published 19 November 2025

Elsie Hewitt, the model and girlfriend of comedian Pete Davidson, has publicly shared her intense physical struggles during her first pregnancy, describing constant agony linked to underlying medical conditions. The 29-year-old posted a candid video on her Instagram Stories on November 14, 2025, revealing that the pain has persisted since early in her pregnancy with the couple's first child and has only intensified.

Hewitt explained that she experiences discomfort around the clock, to the point where she sometimes cannot walk. "I'm in absolute agony pretty much 24/7," she said in the video. "This morning, it's really bad." She attributed the worsening symptoms to a combination of endometriosis, a reproductive condition she has managed for years, and hypermobile Ehlers-Danlos syndrome, a connective tissue disorder that complicates pregnancy. Despite trying numerous treatments, including exercise, physical therapy, stretches, acupuncture, energy healing, and steroid shots, Hewitt reported no relief. "At this point, if you can think of something that there is to do about the pain, I have tried it," she stated. "I have tried everything, and it's only getting worse."
