Pete Davidson's recent split from Chase Sui Wonders is prompting a thoughtful shift in focus.
The 29-year-old who has been in and out of rehabilitation is once again focusing on what is important. In Hollywood, where the dazzling allure of celebrity life can overshadow internal battles, his journey is a reminder that no matter what, tending to one's mind is essential.
Pete Davidson Shifts Focus To Mental Health Post Chase Sui Wonders Split
According to a source, the pair have ended their relationship in under a year. Speaking about the actor, they told PEOPLE, "He's single again. He's out and about and doing really well."
The insider also confirmed that the 29-year-old took the step to admit himself to mental health treatment. In June, the same person indicated that Davidson's stay would not be extended.
In the ensuing months, the "SNL" alum, undergoing in-patient therapy for post-traumatic stress disorder and a previous borderline personality disorder diagnosis, was seen in Florida. He even returned to the comedy scene, performing a standup at a Dania Beach comedy club.
Another insider close to the "Brooklyn Nine-Nine" actor told the outlet, "Pete will often check himself into rehab to work on these issues. His friends and family have been supportive during this time."
The decision to check into rehab came three months after the car collision involving the former couple in Beverly Hills — a mishap that occurred when he crashed into a fire hydrant. That same month, it was confirmed that the "Bupkis" star faced a misdemeanor charge of reckless driving from the incident.
Davidson and Wonders, who co-starred in the March 2022 film "Bodies Bodies Bodies," initially ignited romance speculations in December when they joined fellow cast member Rachel Sennott for a New York Rangers game.
Before their breakup, an insider disclosed in June that the pair's relationship was "still going strong" and that the "Fast X" actor "cares for her and thinks she's just the best."
The source also noted that the former live birds shared a strong bond, and Davidson is content, adding, "When they're apart, they're always on the phone and just a cute couple." They further noted that the "Friends of the People" actor was proceeding cautiously in the relationship.
The standup comedian has found himself in romantic entanglements in the past six years with notable figures like Ariana Grande, Kim Kardashian, Emily Ratajkowski, and Kaia Gerber. With such famous names, this has led many to wonder how he captured the prominent celebrities' hearts.

Fans will recall that their high-profile romance reportedly began after an on-screen kiss during her "Saturday Night Live" guest appearance in October 2021. At the same time, as their relationship bloomed, the socialite was still divorcing her ex-husband, Kanye West.
In July, The Blast reported that during an episode of her family's reality TV show, the 42-year-old openly admitted to her sisters, Kylie and Kendall Jenner, that she had swiftly entered another relationship with the "I Want You Back" guest star.
To elaborate, the mother-of-four stated, "It got my mind away from stuff, and that's not a way to run from things." Having learned from that experience, she embraced a fresh perspective, encapsulated in a new mantra she revealed: "It's better to deal. Heal…Deal, heal, and then feel."
The "Temptation: Confessions of a Marriage Counselor" actress courageously declared her refusal to perceive her experiences in a negative light. She also committed to gleaning lessons from them and using them as building blocks for her personal development.
In case you missed it, by the time Season 3 of the widely-watched series progressed, the entrepreneur was gradually approaching the resolution of her divorce from West. While filming, the model managed the concluding phases of her challenging legal dispute with the "College Dropout" rapper, ending on November 28.
In fact, amidst the proceedings, the producer resorted to publicly mistreating her then-partner, Pete Davidson, via social media and his music.
The severity of his actions towards the younger star was so great that after their breakup, reports emerged about him seeking "trauma therapy" to cope with the stress brought on by the unrelenting mistreatment.
