Pete Davidson’s inner circle is concerned the comedian-cum-actor could die if he doesn’t take his sobriety and mental health seriously after rehab.
The 29-year-old star is said to have surrounded himself with people who are aiding him in doing drugs.
“His buddies, these friends he has around him, they are enabling him and they aren’t being honest with him,” an insider told The U.S. Sun
“He came out of rehab and he immediately started talking about how 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.
“Here is the thing, I don’t think he is mature enough to face reality and face the music. If he doesn’t start taking his issues seriously, he could wind up killing himself from drugs. 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,” the source added.
Pete has had a rough go this past year, including crashing his car into the side of a house in Beverly Hills in March- he checked into a rehab sometime in June.
In July, the comedian struck a plea deal with the Los Angeles District Attorney’s office to avoid possible jail time on a reckless driving charge stemming from the car crash.
As part of the plea he agreed to take part in a diversion program and if Pete meets all the requirements upon completion there will be no criminal offense on his record stemming from the accident.
Pete checked himself into rehab and he resurfaced on social media in late July.
“Pete regularly goes to rehab for ‘tune ups’ and to take a mental break, so that’s what’s happening,” a source had told Page Six.
The comedian’s dating life is also in a turmoil. He hasn’t been in any steady relationship since his famous breakup with reality star Kim Kardashian.
Kim, 42, and Pete, 29, broke up in August 2022 after nine months of dating; the stars were first spotted hand-in-hand back in October 2021 .
