Pete Davidson admits he feels guilty that his pregnant girlfriend, Elsie Hewitt, cannot enjoy a private, ideal pregnancy due to his fame. The Saturday Night Live alum shared his thoughts during a recent interview on The Breakfast Club on iHeartRadio. Davidson said, “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 added that pregnancy is meant to be a personal and beautiful experience, but his celebrity status makes it difficult. “She’s a very private person, and she’s the one doing all the work. It’s supposed to be a beautiful experience,” Davidson said. Despite his concerns, he confirmed that Hewitt has not expressed any resentment.

“She’s never made me feel this way or said anything. But 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.”

Here’s how they announced the pregnancy
