Pete Davidson and his new girlfriend, model Elsie Hewitt, took their blossoming relationship courtside on Sunday night as they attended the New York Knicks vs. Phoenix Suns game at Madison Square Garden.

Photos from the event, exclusively obtained by Page Six, show the 31-year-old comedian and the 29-year-old British-American model seated in celebrity row, flashing smiles and exchanging playful looks. Though the pair kept things low-key with no overt PDA, they made their entrance hand-in-hand, drawing plenty of attention from fans and fellow attendees.

“The pair looked comfortable and happy, and they clearly enjoy each other’s company,” a source told Page Six.

This New York outing follows their recent trip to Scotland, where they attended musician Dave Navarro’s wedding together. According to an insider, Davidson is “all in” with Hewitt and taking a more thoughtful approach to this relationship.

“He really likes Elsie a lot and he wants to do things differently this time around,” the source revealed. “He doesn’t want to rush things and he took his time getting to know her before getting involved in anything romantic.”

The same insider added that the couple’s connection began as a friendship. “Starting off as friends allowed them to see if their values aligned,” they said, noting that their bond has since grown stronger. Hewitt is reportedly “very different from anybody else he’s ever dated before” and respects Davidson’s desire for privacy. She’s also won over Davidson’s inner circle. “His mom and sister love seeing Pete so happy,” the source added.

The romance was first confirmed in March, shortly after Page Six reported that Davidson was dating someone new — described at the time as a “non-celebrity.” Hewitt’s identity was revealed days later.

Davidson, who previously dated Kim Kardashian, Ariana Grande, Phoebe Dynevor, and Kaia Gerber, appears to be settling into a more grounded chapter. Hewitt, for her part, has been linked in the past to Jason Sudeikis and producer Benny Blanco.

For now, the couple seems content cheering on the Knicks, keeping things playful and supportive — and all smiles under the bright lights of MSG.
