The famous American comedian was born to Scott Matthew Davidson (father) and Amy Waters Davidson (mother) in Staten Island, New York, United. However, the comedian, Davidson, is American. Therefore most people mistake him for white depending on his skin colour and black depending on how he looks.
From his mother’s side, Pete is chiefly of Irish descent with German, English, and Scottish roots. His grandparents (Amy’s parents) Rebecca and Peter Waters were both born to families with Irish ancestry. However, his grandmother had bits of German, English, and Scottish heritage from her maternal ancestors.
Also, Pete Davidson is half Jewish as his father Scott came from Jewish ancestry, for the most part. Scott’s father (and Pete’s paternal grandfather) Stephen Davidson descended from the Ashkenazi Jewish communities in Poland, Russia, and Romania. He is a Jewish, German, Italian, and Irish. It’s because his father was mainly Jewish and a descendant of Italian, Irish and German.
