Emily Ratajkowski has been spotted for the first time she she confirmed her romance with Hollywood lothario Pete Davidson.
The 31-year-old model was pictured out and about in New York City early on Thursday morning – just hours after she was spotted returning to her West Village apartment at 12:30AM, having spent Wednesday evening celebrating her apparent new beau’s 29th birthday.
Emily and Pete appeared to solidify rumors of a budding relationship between them when they were pictured enjoying a tender embrace as the model arrived at the comedian’s Brooklyn home with a gift in hand – a book from West Village-based bookstore Three Lives & Company.
The model and writer went makeup-free for her outing this morning, and she looked as though she was battling tiredness after her late night on the town.

Confirmation: The comedian seemingly confirmed the widespread rumors about his newest stunning squeeze as they met up to celebrate his 29th birthday on Wednesday night, after a source revealed how he had fallen for the beauty’s ‘intelligence’

Her outing in New York City comes just hours after she was last pictured – returning home to her apartment having celebrated Pete’s 29th birthday with him in Brooklyn.
However, while Pete and Emily both appeared delighted to see one another, their first public outing together was not without its hiccups.
According to witnesses, the comedian arrived at the model’s West Village apartment in his Mini Cooper – with Emily stepping out into the street to meet him. But when photographers ‘swarmed the couple’, Pete seemingly got spooked and drove off – leaving his date standing in the street alone.
Undeterred, Emily later got into an Uber, which drove her to a location in Brooklyn, where she once again met up with Pete, with the two seen sharing a very intimate embrace in the lobby of a residential building.

A delighted Pete couldn’t wipe the smile off his face as he pulled the model into a hug, before ushering her down the hallway of the building.
After celebrating the birthday boy’s special day, Emily was later seen returning home to her own apartment solo, carrying a water bottle in her hand in place of the gift she had given her supposed new beau.
The comedian is on the rebound after he split from Kim Kardashian in August following a nine-month high-profile fling.
Pete’s romance with Kim, 42, came after the actor built himself a reputation as one of Hollywood’s most prolific lotharios, having dated a string of other A-list women including Ariana Grande (who famously boasted about his ’10 inches’ and ‘big d*** energy’), Kate Beckinsale, Kaia Gerber, Margaret Qualley and Phoebe Dynevor.
Meanwhile, Emily was last linked to DJ Orazio Rispo, who she was seen passionately kissing in New York City last month, following her split from husband Sebastian Bear-McClard in September.
In an awkward twist, Pete and Sebastian have mingled in the same circle and both attended a basketball game together in 2020. Sebastian also executive produced Halina Reijn’s black comedy slasher Bodies Bodies Bodies, in which Pete starred.
Emily was also given an uncomfortable reminder of his high-profile exes on the same day as their first public outing.
New romance: It comes after Emily and Pete were captured on a date in New York City, just days after rumors of a romance between them first began to swirl
Pete made his debut appearance in reality TV show The Kardashians yesterday, showing him and Kim getting ready for the Met Gala when they were still loved-up in May where she tells him: ‘You look so f***ing handsome.’
Earlier this week, a source told Us Weekly that the two were ‘in the very early stages’ of dating, but things were going well so far as they were said to ‘really like each other.’
The source explained that they had been building up to dating, as they had ‘been talking for a couple months now’ after mutual friends put them in touch.
It seemed to be a solid fit for the two, as Emily — who wrote a bestselling and critically acclaimed essay collection titled My Body — wowed Pete with how ‘intelligent she is,’ while she reportedly enjoyed the comedians ability to make her laugh.
News of the two potentially dating erupted after the gossip site DeuxMoi was tipped off by an anonymous person that the two were allegedly seen ‘all over each other,’ which quickly spread across the internet.
‘His hands were all over her and they’re clearly clearly hooking up,’ the tipster claimed after reportedly seeing the two on a date in Brooklyn on Sunday.
Emily has lately been dating other men since the end of her marriage to Uncut Gems film producer Sebastian Bear–McClard among rumors of his alleged infidelity.
The model and the producer split in July after four years of marriage; she filed for divorce in September.
Emily gave birth to son Sylvester — whom she usually calls Sly — in March of last year during happier times in her marriage to Sebastian.
Last month, she was seen dating and even sharing a passionate kiss with the DJ Orazio Rispo in New York City.

Prior to the sightings with Rispo, Ratajkowski was reported to have gone out on a few dates with Brad Pitt, though the relationship doesn’t appear to have gotten off the ground after DailyMail.com published exclusive photos of the Oscar winner getting handsy with a new woman.
Pete appears to have taken a few months before jumping into a new relationship following his breakup from Kim Kardashian, which was revealed in early August.
The funny man and the 42-year-old reality icon discovered a spark after sharing a kiss on stage when Kim made her SNL hosting debut in October 2021, for a sketch in which they parodied Disney’s Aladdin and kissed on a magic carpet.

Getting serious: Pete and Kim appeared on Saturday Night Live together in October
The two couldn’t get each other off their minds in subsequent months, and had a series of clandestine meetings and dates. Days before Christmas, the comic rented out his favorite movie theater on Staten Island for a private screening of the Lady Gaga and Adam Driver–starring drama House Of Gucci.
The two went official with their relationship as 2022 rolled along, but their inseparable nature and plentiful PDA were interrupted by Kim’s ex-husband Kanye West, who carried on a campaign of harassing and even threatening posts on social media.
By August, the two had gone their separate ways, reportedly after they lost their ‘spark’ after Pete had to spend extended time away to shoot a film in Australia, while Kim remained in Los Angeles with her four children.
The actor’s time with Kim seems to have shown he is comfortable around children, as he was spotted out occasionally without Kim while taking along some of her kids.
