At the start of the year, 48-year-old American actor Jason Sudeikis was spotted outside a West Hollywood club with British-born model and actress Elsie Hewitt, who is 28.

Magazine met through mutual friends in Hollywood, have been seen out and about together again, seemingly confirming their relationship.
The former SNL cast member and Dave actress were guests at a star-studded game night hosted by American musician, producer, and Roots drummer Questlove, who shared a picture of the couple on his Instagram.

Nevertheless, she describes herself as “an actor, photographer” and “obsessed with food” in the “About” section of her YouTube channel, which has more than 14,000 subscribers.
Hewitt even has her own line of clothing called Elsie Eats, that puts a playful and satirical spin on designer brands and their recognisable iconography. Instead of Prada, it’s Pasta; and instead of Cartier, it’s Caviar. She gives back to those less fortunate A banner across the top of the Elsie Eats online store shows that Hewitt has partnered with Caviar by DoorDash and non-profit organisation Feeding America, and together they donate a meal to those in need for every item of merchandise sold on Elsie Eats.
In addition, the Turnt actress has also worked with the Bali Children’s Project, which is “dedicated to [helping] children in Bali escape poverty through education”. Hewitt shared her experience with the non-profit in a 2022 Instagram reel, and wrote in the caption that “schools in Indonesia and all over the world are in desperate need of fixing, many putting children at risk of exposure to asbestos and other harmful things ..
. it was heartbreaking to see these conditions in what should always be a safe and comfortable space for a child to receive an education ..
. The world is so much bigger than the bubble I feel like I live in sometimes.” She once partied with Mick Jagger {"@context":"https://schema.

According to People, she sued him for allegedly “kicking, punching and throwing her down the stairs”. She also alleged that the actor “repeatedly [abused] a panoply of legal and illegal drugs”. Phillippe has denied all the allegations.
A source close to the actor told the outlet it was in fact the model who was under the influence, adding that she appeared at his house after he’d broken up with her and “physically attacked Ryan, caused a scene and refused to leave his home. As she was removed from the premises, she claims she fell and injured herself”. Ultimately, as reported by UK media, Phillippe “settled with his ex-girlfriend Elsie Hewitt just four days before his assault case was due to come before a judge”.
However, it was not disclosed how much the actor paid Hewitt in the settlement. After first being spotted together in January, the 28-year-old model and actress Elsie Hewitt was seen with Jason Sudeikis again recently at a star-studded game night hosted by Questlove Hewitt made headlines in 2017 when she filed a lawsuit against Ryan Phillippe alleging he abused her, she starred in comedy series Dave, and is a devoted humanitarian.
