Pete Davidson Says He Is ‘Very Happy’ After Taking a Step Back From Acting: ‘I Got Hit on the Face With the Hollywood Shovel’


Pete Davidson has found his peace after taking a step back from the limelight.

The 31-year-old comedian left “ Saturday Night Live ” in 2022 following an eight-season run on the prolific sketch comedy show. He explained that his decision to take space from Hollywood was partially motivated by the negative press he received following a series of his high-profile relationships with celebrities such as Ariana Grande and Kim Kardashian. Davidson also explained that he felt pressured early in his career to say yes to every opportunity that came his way, but has matured and grown wiser since his younger years.
