Pete Davidson opens up about family loss in rare Instagram post

Pete Davidson, 29, opened up about the sad time his family is going through following the death of their dog in a candid Instagram post shared in view of his 144,000 followers.

The former Saturday Night Live star posted a lengthy statement on the social media platform along with two pictures of himself holding his beloved pooch, Henry.

The King of Staten Island star began: “Hey guys. I know today is the Bupkis premiere day but I wanna use today to remember my dog Henry.

“Yesterday we lost a key member of the Davidson family. Henry was only 2 years old but unfortunately got very sick very fast.”

The Bodies Bodies Bodies actor explained how Henry “saved” him and his loved ones’ lives after they adopted him at the beginning of the coronavirus outbreak.

He typed: “My mom, sister and I got Henry at the beginning of the pandemic and he saved our lives. Not sure id even be around without him.

“He was the happiest and sweetest dog ever. He used to get excited when he saw me and would pee everywhere.

“When I was working at SNL my mom would send me videos of him watching, smiling and making noise when I came on screen.” (sic)

The comedian went on: “I don’t ever really watch any of my stuff with anyone as I’m far too scared but I didn’t mind watching with Henry. He was truly the best.”

He concluded: “My mom, sister and I are broken and will miss him forever. We love you Henry. Thank you for making our lives fuller and reminding me what actually matters.”
