For Pete, the cause hits close to home, as his father, Scott Davidson, who was a NYC firefighter, died in the September 11 attacks.
Meanwhile, Jon has been a prominent champion of first responders who risked their lives that day.
He’s also used his platform to push Congress to guarantee healthcare and financial support for those suffering from 9/11-related health issues.
Pete welcomed his first child in December and gave a nod to his late father in her name, Scottie Rose.
He shares his daughter with supermodel Elsie Hewitt, with whom he split weeks after Scottie’s birth.
The U.S. Sun exclusively revealed the couple’s breakup in May, with an insider saying that Pete’s busy work schedule was to blame.
Sources later claimed that their split has turned ugly, as Elsie has threatened to take Pete to court to hash out child support and custody of their daughter.
The Saturday Night Live alum has since sold his Staten Island condo at a $400,000 loss, in a desperate attempt to “open up his funds” for his potentially hefty child support payments, The U.S. Sun exclusively revealed.
He’s also considerably slashed the price of his New York country home, which is currently on the market.
Pete initially listed the four-bedroom, three-bathroom estate for $3.5 million in September, but the price has since dipped down to $1.895 million.
