Long gone are the days of Pete Davidson and Ariana Grande’s summer of romance. Enter: the spring of Pete Davidson and Phoebe Dynevor, which has popped up right after this winter’s news of Olivia Wilde and Harry Styles and Shailene Woodley and Aaron Rodgers. The 27-year-old Saturday Night Live cast member and the 26-year-old Bridgerton actress kicked off a romance that lasted from February to August.
A Caverswall, England, teen saw the pair strolling past her house and snagged a photo op with Davidson. Per local news source Stoke-on-TrentLive, the 14-year-old high school student noticed the duo’s body language looked as if they might be more than friends.
The teen told the site her story:
“They walked past our house and we saw them holding hands and hugging each other. I saw his face from the side but I wasn’t sure if it was actually him. I thought ‘no, it can’t be.’ I left it but then my sister said ‘is that Pete Davidson?’ I walked up to him and asked him if it was Pete Davidson and he said ‘no’ in an English accent but then later he said ‘I’m just kidding’ in an American accent. It was quite funny. They were really nice and lovely. I knew of Pete Davidson partly because he’s Ariana Grande’s ex, and I listen to some of her songs. It was strange to see them in Caverswall. I’ve never seen a famous person, never mind outside my house. It’s quite amazing I came across them. I told all my friends about it. It looked like they were in a relationship and they seemed happy together.”
It does make some sense that the two were in Caverswall; it’s about an hour away by car from Dynevor’s hometown, Manchester, per Google Maps.
A teen and her sister in an English village might have been the first to sight the new couple, but Us Weekly confirmed the relationship shortly after the couple’s Caverswall stroll.
“Pete and Phoebe are still going strong despite not being able to physically spend time together,” a source told Us. ”They keep in touch over text and FaceTime. Right now, they’re just focused on work…They’re not looking to rush things.”
The two reportedly met this earlier this year at a “gathering,” though during a pandemic it’s hard to imagine exactly what this gathering looked like.
“Pete and Phoebe met at a gathering in NYC and really hit it off. They started off as friends and quickly realized there was chemistry between [them],” a source told Entertainment Tonight. “Pete and Phoebe started out casually dating but things have gotten a bit more serious recently.”
So, when did this relationship start in the first place—and end? Here, their complete history.
February 2021
Dynevor took a trip to NYC, where Davidson lives, to shoot scenes for the TV show Younger.
“Grateful I got to be here for a hot sec ❤️,” she wrote on Instagram alongside photos of Brooklyn.
March 2021
The couple was spotted at multiple locations in England, including the Caverswall sighting. On March 20, Davidson was seen in the Manchester area, where the social media company Altrincham HQ posted the following on their Facebook:
“Pete Davidson in the market quarter. Star of King Of Staten Island … and also in the forthcoming Suicide Squad movie. He’s staying over in Altrincham with friends,” the post reads.

These two are starting a long-distance relationship alongside global vaccine efforts, so there’s a good chance these two will be spotted out together a lot more this year.
People reported on April 23 that Davidson is visiting Dynevor in London.
“Pete is telling friends he’s serious about her,” a source told the publication. The source added that the two are “really into each other” and that “Pete is telling friends he’s serious about her.”
July 2021
Dynevor and Davidson went to their first public event as a couple on July 3 when they went to Wimbledon together.
They were seen getting cuddly, kissing, taking selfies, and enjoying themselves in the stands at Roger Federer’s match.

This follows the months the couple spent in a long-distance relationship.
August 2021
On August 15, The Sun reported that Davidson and Dynevor quietly ended their relationship. A source told the outlet that:
Pete and Phoebe’s romance was a real whirlwind and from the start they were both totally committed. But as time has passed, it’s become increasingly obvious it is going to be difficult to make this work. Phoebe has had back-to-back filming dates with Bridgerton in the U.K. Meanwhile, Pete has been back in the U.S. filming Saturday Night Live. Alongside that he has just started working on a new film, Meet Cute, with Kaley Cuoco. Phoebe and Pete were last together in the U.K. in July but since he flew back to the States, he’s not seen her. Obviously all the travel restrictions because of the pandemic have not helped. People can’t just jump on planes and jet around the world when they want to. It has made everything more difficult. It was pretty telling when Phoebe headed to Croatia with her mates this week rather than going to see Pete in America.
That source added that reconciliation would be tough for them because of their being long distance: “It was wild while it lasted and they both really care for each other. But the distance has put a strain on them. Their mates think they make a great couple, but the distance has made it completely unworkable. They had fun and will remain close but unless something drastic changes their relationship won’t recover.”
