Elsie and Pete have been linked since March 2025, and announced they were expecting in July via an Instagram post filled with snaps of her growing baby bump. Despite their whirlwind relationship, the duo told Bumble that their connection felt inevitable.
"When we went on our first date, we went out to dinner for the first time, I was like, 'Okay, don't think that I'm crazy, but I just know you're going to be the father of my children,'' Elsie shared.

"It's easy to be sad and try to make myself sad about," Pete told USA Today about his father not being present for the birth of his grandchild. "It's a beautiful thing. If anything, maybe he's coming back through the baby."

"My dad told me he was going to pick me up from school on 9/11. I got picked up by my mom. She didn't tell me what was going on for like three days," he said on the Real Ones podcast. "She kept telling me, 'Dad's at work,' 'He's coming home,'…I had no idea."

"It was weird because we didn't know he was dead for, like, three weeks," Pete added. "They were finding people, you know? They were pulling people out…and there was just some sort of hope. It was just up and down, and nobody knew how to deal with it."
