Pete Davidson resurfaced for the first time in months after seeking mental health treatment in July.
The “Saturday Night Live” alum posed for a photo with his pal MGK on Thursday night as they enjoyed a preview of The Room at the Intuit Dome in Los Angeles, the new home arena of the LA Clippers.
Davidson, 30, rocked a red FDNY T-shirt at the event.
The tee, which had the FDNY logo and the words “Fire Dept. of New York,” was likely a tribute to his late father.
The comedian’s dad, Scott Matthew Davidson, served NYC as a firefighter and lost his life in the 9/11 terrorist attacks. Pete was 7 years old at the time.
The “King of Staten Island” star appeared to be in high spirits for the outing as he was seen smiling alongside MGK, formerly known as Machine Gun Kelly.
Pete’s rare public appearance comes more than two months after the “Bodies Bodies Bodies” star checked himself into a wellness facility to work on his mental health.
In August, his rep confirmed to Page Six that he was still receiving treatment despite a report to the contrary.
Davidson had also previously spent time in rehab in June 2023 to help manage his PTSD and borderline personality disorder.
“Pete regularly goes to rehab for ‘tune ups’ and to take a mental break, so that’s what’s happening,” an insider shared with us at the time.
“Anyone who knows Pete knows that he will always step up and get help when he knows he needs it.”
The actor has been open about his mental health struggles for years.
He revealed to “CBS Sunday Morning” in 2020 that he has experienced extreme suicidal thoughts and gotten “close” to acting on them.
In 2018, he concerned fans when he said he didn’t “want to be on this earth anymore.”
“I’m doing my best to stay here for you but I actually don’t know how much longer i can last,” he posted on Instagram at the time.
That same year, Pete told Variety he had been “in and out of mental health facilities” since he was 9 years old.
Despite his struggles, he credited the right doctors and medication with helping him get on a more positive track.
“The last few years have been real rough with me,” he said.
“I took all these mental health classes and really spent a lot of time getting me good.”
