Matt Rife<\/strong> is always making sure he doesn’t take life too seriously — but even he has regrets!<\/p>\n

In the newest episode of Elle<\/em>‘s Thirst Trap<\/em> series on YouTube<\/strong>, the 28-year-old comedian dished about a lot of things, but one thing in particular that caught fans’ eyes was his apology to Pete Davidson<\/strong> and their shared ex Kate Beckinsale<\/strong>. Back in 2019 in an interview with TMZ<\/em>, he notably told Pete to “run” when he found out the former SNL<\/em> cast member was spotted with the British actress, warning them to “be careful”:<\/p>\n

“Enjoy it while you can. I hope they\u2019re both happy, I hope that it can build to where it\u2019s an established, good relationship. I wish them both the best. I hope they\u2019re happy. I don\u2019t really have any solid advice, just be careful.\u201d<\/p>\n

In the new Thirst Trap<\/em> video, though, Matt tried to explain his reasoning for making the comment:<\/p>\n

“I gave that advice because I was only speaking from personal experience, having been together and finding out that we weren\u2019t the most compatible match. I wanted to make sure that both of them were careful with their emotions and didn\u2019t head into something that they also wouldn\u2019t, that also wouldn\u2019t work out.\u201d<\/p>\n

Hmm. Sounds more like he was just bitter after the breakup!<\/p>\n

He went on to apologize to the former couple:<\/p>\n

\u201cPete, if you\u2019re out there, sorry I said that. Kate, I also apologize that I said that. I shouldn\u2019t have said that.\u201d<\/p>\n

But even with his apology, he called himself a “petty asshole” and doubled down on the idea he just wanted to “protect” them from a bad situation:<\/p>\n

\u201cI gave the advice to be careful because I had just gotten out of a relationship with somebody I unfortunately found out we weren\u2019t compatible. And I always want people to, you know, protect their emotions and their personal feelings.\u201d<\/p>\n
