Pete Davidson's girlfriend Elsie Hewitt reflects on pregnancy struggles

Elsie Hewitt is opening up about the difficult side of pregnancy, sharing that the experience has been far from easy for her. 

The model, who is expecting her first child with Pete Davidson, told followers in a candid Instagram Stories update on Nov. 14 that she has been dealing with severe pain from the very beginning of her pregnancy.

She didn’t sugarcoat how tough things have been. 

“I’m in absolute agony pretty much 24/7,” she said, adding that the morning she filmed the video was “really bad.” 

Despite trying everything she can think of to find relief, from exercise and stretching to physical therapy, acupuncture, energy healing and even steroid shots, the pain hasn’t eased. 

“I have tried everything, and it’s only getting worse and I cannot walk,” she shared, calling the constant discomfort “straight-up suffering.”

Elsie explained that her struggles make more sense given her medical history. She has long dealt with endometriosis, a condition she has spoken about openly, and noted that endometriosis is “heavily linked” to Hypermobile Ehlers-Danlos syndrome, a connective tissue disorder. 

She believes that connection sheds light on why her pain during pregnancy has become so overwhelming.

Reaching out for support, she told her followers she hopes to hear from someone who has gone through pregnancy and childbirth with Hypermobile Ehlers-Danlos syndrome. 

She asked whether the pain gets better after delivery and confessed that she is desperate for reassurance. “I just really want to feel a little bit of hope,” she said.

This isn’t the first time Elsie has discussed her health challenges. 

Earlier this year, she shared that her endometriosis once left her convinced she might never be able to have children. 

“I was 100 percent convinced that I was infertile and not going to be able to have kids,” she told PEOPLE in October, explaining that undergoing surgery was not only about managing symptoms but also about preserving her chances of building a family.

Now pregnant with her first baby, Elsie’s honesty reflects the complicated reality many expectant mothers face, especially those with underlying health conditions.

While she continues to navigate intense pain, she’s holding onto the hope that things will improve, especially with support from people who understand what she’s going through.
