Sydney Sweeney Celebrates 28th Birthday with Scooter Braun, Sparking Romance Speculation
The actress and the music and media executive have been linked in multiple sightings after a milestone celebration.
Sydney Sweeney celebrated turning 28 with Scooter Braun, a public outing that has intensified speculation about a new romance.
People magazine reported that the pair “had a great time celebrating” the milestone earlier this month. The outlet did not detail how they spent the day, but Sweeney had previously documented a birthday getaway to Utah on Instagram. The actress, who turned 28 on Sept. 12, posted a carousel captioned “little trip to Mars” that included several swimsuit shots and adventurous moments, such as cliff jumping and jet skiing. Braun did not appear in the photos, but Sweeney’s friends were featured in the slides.
A People source said Sweeney is “having fun with Scooter and enjoys dating him,” adding that “he’s easy to be around and an intriguing guy.” The insider noted that she is back to work and remains focused on her successful acting career. Reps for Sweeney and Braun did not respond to requests for comment.
Page Six had reported earlier in the month that Braun was “obsessed” with Sweeney and pursuing her. The duo have crossed paths at several public events in recent months, including the June wedding of Jeff Bezos and Lauren Sánchez, which followed Sweeney’s broken engagement to Jonathan Davino earlier this year. They were also seen chatting at Lana Del Rey’s Coachella performance about two months prior, and had previously been photographed at an April concert and a June wedding.
Most recently, they were photographed dining together at a Los Angeles hotspot, Jon and Vinny’s in Brentwood, Calif., on a Wednesday. The coupling marks Braun’s first public romance since his separation from ex-wife Yael Cohen, with whom he shares three children; the couple settled their divorce in September 2022.
The timeline of Sweeney’s personal life this year includes a broken engagement to Jonathan Davino earlier in 2025, which has kept the spotlight on her dating life as she continues to balance high-profile projects with her personal milestones. The actor’s representatives have not commented beyond the public reports, and Sweeney has largely kept the focus on her career and upcoming roles.
Culture and entertainment coverage of Sweeney and Braun’s evolving dynamic continues to unfold as both maintain active careers in their respective fields. The couple’s appearances together and in the same social circles have increasingly placed them at the center of speculation about a potential romance, though neither has publicly confirmed the status of their relationship.
