Fans gushed about the sweet post while also remarking they loved the aesthetics and connecting the designed letter with that of Davidson's first name.

Following the "SNL" star's exit from the famous series, The Blast shared his final message to his fans, whereby he recalled and appreciated the memorable times he had. In his words:

"When I got to the show, I was 20 years old, and I had no idea what I was doing. I still don't but especially back then. I wasn't really a sketch performer I was just a stand-up."

He continued, "I knew I could never keep up or go toe to toe with a Kenan Thompson or a Kate McKinnon, so I was super scared at figuring out what I could possibly bring to or do for such a historic, respected show and platform."

The talented writer added an expression of gladness to the heartfelt message for being himself, a stand-up comedian on the show.

The famous comedy show concluded its 47th season with the last episode featuring Natasha Lyonne as the host and Japanese Breakfast as a musical guest.

Davidson was starred as well, making it his final performance, same with Kate McKinnon, Kyle Mooney, and Aidy Bryant.

He also appeared on the "Weekend Update" segment to recount his years on the program, mentioning his longtime foe Kanye West and ex-fiancée Ariana Grande.

A throwback video of the actor was shared via his friend Dave Sirus' Instagram, where he credited Jerrod Carmichael for sending it to him the previous night.

The video showed him performing on his first "Weekend Update" years ago, and he admitted that it made him "super emotional in the best way."

He further acknowledged his fans' importance in his "SNL" career, saying he got to share many things with them as they were with him through the good, bad, happiest, and darkest periods.

The "KUWTK" Star And Her Boyfriend Prepare Towards Brief Relocation

Kardashian and her significant other seem to be pretty serious about their relationship as they planned on making long-distance work while Davidson filmed a new movie.

The Blast shared that the comedian is preparing to film movies that would take him far away from his beloved, so they have been spending so much time together before his departure.

The thirteen-year difference in their ages has nothing on their affection for each other; instead, it has helped improve Davidson's maturity.

Since he started dating the socialite, she has enabled him "grow up in a big way" and helped him work towards securing his financial future.
