‘I never dated Pete. False rumor,” she wrote in a post on her Instagram Story. ‘I’m friends with his sister. Case closed.”

Her post comes after The Sun reported that Davidson had reportedly entered a rehab facility in Florida.
“He’s in pretty bad shape this time,” an insider told the outlet. “He’s not in a good place.”
The source also claimed that the actor’s “treatment check-in” was very recent, when he appeared on SNL on November 2 and hung out with boyfriend Machine Gun Kelly last week.
Davidson was also spotted at a restaurant in Kingsport, Tennessee, earlier this month.
At this time it is not known exactly when he checked into rehab.
The source also claimed that Davidson ended his short-lived “affair with Maria right before he checked in” for rehab.
The couple only dated for a few months before calling it quits.
DailyMail.com has reached out to the comedian’s representatives for comment but has not heard back at this time.

In July, he reportedly checked into a wellness center to seek mental health treatment.
The news came after DailyMail.com exclusively revealed that the Bupkis star admitted he was still using marijuana after quitting both cocaine and ketamine.
Before beginning his rehabilitation stint this summer, Davidson completed more than 200 live stand-up comedy shows across the country.
An insider said this at the time People that mental health has “always been a priority” for him.
A separate source also told the newspaper: ‘Pete will often check himself into rehab to work on these issues. His friends and family have supported me throughout this time.”

Around the same time last year, Davidson also entered a rehabilitation center to deal with issues related to his post-traumatic stress disorder and borderline personality disorder diagnoses, both of which he has previously opened up about in the past.
In 2020, Davidson starred in The King of Staten Island, a semi-autobiographical film that draws on his struggles dealing with grief and his own childhood experiences losing his father after September 11.
He wrote the comedy drama together with director-producer Judd Apatow and comedian Dave Sirus, basing the story partly on his own past.
Directed by Judd Apatow, the film stars Davidson as Scott Carlin, a young man who spends his 20s smoking and drinking to cope with the loss of his father.
The story reflects Davidson’s own life and how he decides to pursue a career in comedy.
