Pete Davidson's 'unpredictable' career and feeling 'miserable' after Madelyn Cline split led to rehab stint
Pete Davidson's 'unpredictable' behavior and heartbreak over his split from Madelyn Cline led to him checking into a rehab facility - an insider has claimed.
Last month it was revealed the comedian, 30, had entered a wellness facility seeking treatment for his mental health - just days after admitting to fans that he quit doing drugs.
Davidson split from Cline, 26, the same month after nearly a year of dating - with a source who saw Pete days before rehab exclusively telling DailyMail.com: ‘Pete is miserable most of the time.'
The only time Pete is ‘truly happy’ is when he’s working and on stage performing, the source alleged.
Apart from his Prehab Tour, which was supposed to run until mid-October but is now canceled, the star did not have many films or TV projects lined up.

Four of his upcoming projects were either just completed or are in the post-production phase.
The source explained: ‘Pete doesn't have stability in his life right now. He does better when he has his s**t together and things are stable.
‘For the first time in his career, things are unpredictable and that's what's been so stressful for him. There is a lot of pressure that comes along with uncertainty and that stress can lead to bad thoughts.’
The insider claimed that even though he unexpectedly canceled the remainder of his comedy tour dates – disappointing fans and losing money – the star had to prioritize his mental health.
The source said: 'He has to be in the right mind-set to get on stage and perform in front of thousands.
‘He kind of puts on a front on stage because that's his happy place, so sometimes people don't even know what he's seriously going through because he jokes about his life and he laughs along with his fans.’
Pete is receiving the biggest support from his family and friends, following his breakup with Outer Banks star Cline.
The source said: ‘Some of his closest friends didn't even find out about him going back for treatment until they read about it in the news.'

Last month Pete admitted that he is still smoking weed after quitting cocaine and ketamine - and posed with at a marijuana dispensary over the weekend (pictured above)
‘No matter what, they are wishing him the best and know that he'll bounce back after getting the help he needs,’ a source spilled.
Months ago, his friends allegedly gave him a ‘wake-up call’ about his spending habits.
‘He was blowing through his money and his friends gave him a wakeup call. He was spending thousands of dollars on private jets and trips,’ the source claimed.
DailyMail.com has contacted representatives for Pete Davidson for comment.
Days before entering a wellness facility this summer, Pete revealed that he still smokes weed, after admitting to using other drugs in the past.
During his standup comedy show on July 20 at Ocean Casino Resort in Atlantic City, he told the crowd, 'I can't quit [weed] yet. It's all I have left. I did coke and ketamine and f**king all the pills and all that s**t. All I have is weed left, so it's almost over, but I'm holding on for a little bit longer.’
He also detailed his near-death experience where he ‘drove into a garage’ in Los Angeles in March 2023, resulting in him being charged with reckless driving.
The misdemeanor charge was dismissed on July 18, 2024, after he completed 50 hours of community service with a neurosurgeon, a safe driving course and a visit to a morgue.
According to an eyewitness who spoke exclusively with DailyMail.com, Pete told the crowd at Ocean Casino's Ovation Hall that he got a call about his charges being dropped and responded, 'Hooray? I guess. I did something bad. It's not anything really to be celebrated.’
The source said: 'He has to be in the right mind-set to get on stage and perform in front of thousands. He kind of puts on a front on stage because that's his happy place, so sometimes people don't even know what he's seriously going through' - pictured at his show in January
Despite the terms set forth by the court, Pete mentioned that he was 'having a good year,' and feels 'very grateful' for his life.
Pete announced he was leaving Saturday Night Live in 2022 after being part of the late-night sketch comedy show for eight years. Last year, he executive produced and starred in Bupkis, a Peacock original, but then, after one season, called it quits.
‘I’ve always seen Bupkis as a window into my life, since it is so personal and about my struggles and family,’ The King of Staten Island star shared at the time.
‘After nearly a decade of my personal life being in the media I wanted a chance to tell my story my way. Of all the work I’ve ever done, Bupkis is by far what I’m most proud of.’
He continued, ‘I do also feel that this part of my life is finished. I’m very excited for this next chapter and for you guys to see the work. Thank you to all who support me for I am forever grateful.’
Pete previously entered a rehabilitation facility in July 2023, for treatment related to his post-traumatic stress disorder and borderline personality disorder diagnoses.
The star even joked about his ‘post-rehab glow' during a comedy show in Atlantic City last year.
A source told PEOPLE on Wednesday that mental health has 'always been a priority' for the actor.
