Sydney Sweeney, the 27-year-old Euphoria star, is once again making headlines, this time for her personal life. The actress was recently spotted in Venice, Italy, walking alongside Hollywood music manager Scooter Braun, sparking rumors of a new romance.
The sighting came just after both attended Jeff Bezos and Lauren Sánchez’s wedding in June.
In the videos that went viral online, Sweeney wore a stylish black floral dress while Braun kept it casual in sunglasses. According to Star Magazine, Braun has quietly shared with close friends that he is dating Sweeney, although he has asked them to keep the relationship private.
This news comes only months after Sweeney ended her engagement to longtime partner Jonathan Davino, with whom she had been since 2018. Their breakup became official in April, and since then, Sweeney has been linked to NFL star Tom Brady and her co-star Glen Powell.
While fans are curious about Sweeney’s love life, attention has also shifted to Braun, who is no stranger to controversy. Born in New York in 1981, Braun became one of the most powerful managers in the music industry after discovering Justin Bieber on YouTube. Over the years, he has managed top stars like Ariana Grande, Demi Lovato, and J Balvin.
But Braun is perhaps most famous for his feud with Taylor Swift. In 2019, his company purchased Big Machine Label Group, which owned the rights to Swift’s first six albums.
The deal, worth around $300 million, angered Swift, who had no control over her own music catalog. The fallout pushed her to re-record her early albums, a move that became a massive success with fans. Braun later sold the catalog to Shamrock Capital for about $400 million, but his reputation among Swift’s fanbase never recovered.
Apart from his professional controversies, Braun’s personal life has also drawn attention. He married entrepreneur Yael Cohen in 2014, and the couple had three children: Jagger, Levi, and Hart. They divorced in 2021 but continue to co-parent. Braun has often said, “We’re family forever.”
Now, as rumours swirl about his relationship with Sydney Sweeney, the pairing has shocked many in Hollywood. With their 17-year age gap and Braun’s complicated public image, fans are divided on the match.
For Sweeney, whose career is booming despite recent controversies, this new chapter in her personal life is likely to keep her in the spotlight for months to come.
