Model and Social Media personality Elsie Hewitt, who is expecting her first child with comedian Pete Davidson, is sharing a raw look into the severe medical issues that are dominating her life during her first pregnancy.
Just days before Pete's birthday (today, November 16, 2025), Hewitt revealed on social media that she is in "absolute agony pretty much 24/7."
The model took to her Instagram stories to share that the pain she's been feeling since the first day of her pregnancy, is constantly worsening and confessed that she "cannot walk" due to the severity of her symptoms.
Elsie explains that she believes her discomfort is because of multiple pre-existing health conditions that she deals with.
Endometriosis being one of them, which she specifies has to do with Hypermobile Ehlers-Danlos syndrome, which she also deals with.
The model is appealing to her followers for advice, stating that she has exhausted numerous options, including acupuncture, exercise, and steroid shots, but the pain persists and there's still months to go before her delivery.
Hewitt’s public plea for help underscores the immense physical and emotional toll of her pregnancy.
She has been very honest about her fear that she "wasn't going to be able to have kids" due to her endometriosis struggles and underwent surgery last year to help preserve her fertility.
While she feels "very grateful" to be expecting, the current suffering she's experiencing overshadows the joy at times.
In a past interview, Pete Davidson shared his guilt over the situation, saying he felt "so guilty and horrible" that his high profile prevented his partner from having the "ideal pregnancy."
The couple’s story is a stark reminder that behind the celebrity headlines, high-stakes personal challenges are often happening behind closed doors, alone.
Hewitt is using her platform to shine a light on the debilitating reality of living with chronic conditions while pregnant, while seeking comfort and connection from her online community in a moment of isolating pain.
