Pete Davidson offers Colin Jost a $20K olive branch following feud that made comedians stop speaking

Pete Davidson is on the road to making amends with former “Saturday Night Live” co-star Colin Jost.

The “Bupkis” star gifted the “Weekend Update” co-host a $20,000 Cartier watch following the pair’s alleged fallout, Page Six can confirm.

The luxury timepiece was an olive branch from Davidson to Jost after their rumored rift behind the scenes of “SNL.”

The Sun was first to report the news that Davidson gifted Jost the pricey watch shortly after the “King of Staten Island” star left rehab last summer. 

It’s unclear what exactly led to the comedians’ feud.

However, it ultimately affected their joint purchase of a decommissioned Staten Island ferry, which they had plans to turn into a live entertainment space.

Reps for Davidson, 31, and Jost, 42, did not immediately respond to Page Six’s requests for comment.

Jost previously denied Davidson’s claim that he was “very stoned” when they decided make the nautical purchase in January 2022.

“Is it worse that I was actually stone-cold sober when we bought the ferry?” Jost wrote on Instagram in June 2023 alongside a screenshot of Page Six’s coverage.

Jost continued, “We’re excited to prove the non-believers wrong. You’re going to be BEGGING to get on this ferry in two years. Mark my words.”

He also used the opportunity to promote his “Ferry Money Tour,” which poked fun at the headlines.

“Come on by,” he urged his followers at the time.
