In a statement to E! News, Pete's rep said "there is no truth to this" of Olivia's comments. The rep said the two were "friends and hung [out] a few times."
On her own Instagram, Olivia said that during the interview she "never claimed to date anyone" -- and added, "stop trying to start weird drama over me texting someone 2 years ago."

Olivia O'Brien was just put on the spot about her rumored love life.
During an appearance on the BFFs with Dave Portnoy, Josh Richards, and Brianna Chickenfry podcast, the "Josslyn" singer revealed that she and Pete Davidson had some kind of history together -- after Portnoy put her in the hot seat.
On the podcast, Portnoy asked what was going on between her and Davidson, catching his guest off guard. "Where did you hear that? How did you hear that?" she asked, before he read an unverified DeuxMoi submission saying Pete "ended things with B-list popstar/influencer he had been seeing beforehand for phoebe."
O'Brien, it seems, is the "B-list popstar/influencer" in question -- as she said, "Yeah, that's true."
O'Brien confirmed she hung out with the "Saturday Night Live" alum in person "very few times" back in October 2020 -- adding that the 22-year-old singer didn't think "anyone knew about that."
"He texted me and was like, 'I'm seeing someone else," she said, "'So, like, I can't,'" she added, saying she thought she was the only one he was "talking to" at the time.
Olivia went on to say she has no hard feelings, saying that it all happened "a long time ago" and thinks Pete is a "nice guy."
"He's hot and he's really funny," she continued. "And he's really sweet. He's a really sweet guy."
