According to an unnamed source who spoke with The U.S. Sunthere are concerns about Pete Davidson and the company he keeps. The insider explained: "His buddies, these friends he has around him, they are enabling him and they aren't being honest with him."

Providing an example, the insider continued, "He came out of rehab and he immediately started talking about how he had taken ketamine to treat his depression and these people who are always around him didn't think that was a big deal. It wasn't a big deal until of course it blew up and became a problem for his fresh out of rehab image."

The source expressed doubt about the comedian's maturity in handling reality and his own problems, emphasizing the importance of taking his issues seriously. They said, "If he doesn't start taking his issues seriously, he could wind up killing himself from drugs."

Ultimately, the insider sympathized with Davidson, adding, "At the end of the day, I feel bad for him. The drug situation is his own issue, and I don't think he understands it all comes crashing down."

"Look, he's actually a good guy. He's great with kids, he's fun, but I just don't think he lives in reality when it comes to the issues he's dealing with," the insider concluded.

Interestingly, Davidson has been on tour since the beginning of the month, sharing the stage with comedy icons Jon Stewart and John Mulaney.

Amid all his troubles, Davidson's dating life seems to be going relatively well. He recently entered a new romantic relationship with actress Madelyn Cline, just one month after his breakup with Chase Sui Wonders.
