What has Pete Davidson been up to lately?

Davidson dominated headlines in 2018 for his whirlwind relationship with Ariana Grande. He became more than those headlines in 2019 when he continued to make news as a cast member on Saturday Night Live.

He has also been open about having borderline personality disorder. In a December Instagram post, he said, “I’ve kept my mouth shut. Never mentioned any names, never said a word about anyone or anything. I’m trying to understand how when something happens to a guy, the whole entire world just trashes him without any facts or frame of reference.

He continued, “Especially in today’s climate, where everyone loves to be offended and upset, it truly is mind-boggling. I’ve been getting online bullied and in public by people for nine months. I’ve spoken about BPD and being suicidal publicly only in the hopes that it will help bring awareness and help kids like myself who don’t want to be on this earth.I just want you guys to know. No matter how hard the internet or anyone tries to make me kill myself, I won’t. I’m upset I even have to say this. To all those holding me down and seeing this for what it is — I see you and I love you.”

Davidson’s upcoming roles include a role in James Gunn’s The Suicide Squad. The DC Comics film also stars Margot Robbie, Viola Davis, Joel Kinnaman, Idris Elba, and Storm Reid. Due to is work as an actor and comedian, Davidson has a net worth of $4 million, according to Celebrity Net Worth.
