Sydney Sweeney and Scooter Braun’s unlikely romance heats up as they’re seen on Italian dinner date

by

Sydney Sweeney and music executive Scooter Braun were spotted enjoying a date in Los Angeles’ Brentwood area on Wednesday night.

The 28-year-old movie star and her 44-year-old former manager were having a meal together at Jon and Vinny’s, an Italian restaurant.

They’ve been connected romantically since meeting at the wedding of Lauren Sanchez and Jeff Bezos in Italy on June 27th, meaning they’ve been together for nearly three months.

During dinner, Sweeney had her blonde hair loose and was wearing a dark top with shorts that showed off her fit legs, paired with calf-high boots.

The talent manager, formerly with Justin Bieber, was wearing a white long-sleeved shirt, had a short haircut, and wore black glasses.

When they left the trendy establishment together they got into a black SUV. 

Daily Mail has reached out to reps for Sweeney and Braun, but did not immediately hear back.

Neither Braun nor Sweeney has publicly commented on a possible romance.

According to a source at Page Six, Braun has been very interested in Sweeney ever since they began hanging out in late June.

He has been ‘pursuing’ the actress heavily as he takes her on date after date.

Rumors have circulated since April – after they were seen at Lana Del Rey’s Coachella set – that the two are a couple, but this hasn’t been officially confirmed.

Sweeney ended her engagement to Jonathan Davino in March.

After seven years of marriage, Braun and Yael Cohen divorced in July 2021. They share three children: Jagger, who is 9, Levi, 7, and Hart, 5.

Earlier this year, Braun revealed he struggled with suicidal thoughts during his divorce. He described feeling deeply depressed after his marriage to Cohen ended in 2020.

In an appearance on The Diary Of A CEO podcast, Scooter revealed that his marriage was struggling in October 2020, despite public appearances suggesting everything was going well.

I went through a very dark moment, lasting about twenty minutes, where I seriously considered ending my life. It stemmed from the fear that my marriage was failing and the thought of not being a constant presence in my children’s lives. I felt helpless and realized I couldn’t maintain the perfect persona I’d always shown to others. I felt like if I couldn’t live up to that image, I didn’t want to live at all.

It got really intense and upsetting, and after about 20 minutes I was completely shocked by what I’d seen. It just didn’t feel like something I would ever do, especially considering my children – I’d never abandon them.

Scooter’s divorce was a wake-up call. He realized he’d been living his life based on what others thought of him, rather than what truly made him happy. He achieved a lot of success early on, and everyone told him he was doing well, so he simply accepted their assessment without self-reflection. It wasn’t until things fell apart that he understood he hadn’t been genuinely happy for a long time – he hadn’t really known himself at all.

Sweeney has been busy with her acting career and is starring as real-life boxer Christy Martin in an upcoming movie called *Christy*.

Sydney has admitted to feeling inspired by the former professional sportswoman.

She told Vanity Fair she was surprised more people didn’t know this woman’s story, describing her as one of the most incredibly brave and inspiring people she’d ever encountered.

Sydney got into excellent physical condition to prepare for her role as Christy in the movie. She was also committed to performing all the boxing scenes herself, without a stunt double.

Sydney explained that in every fight scene, the actors are genuinely hitting each other with full force. She believes that using stunt doubles or faking the punches wouldn’t make the action feel authentic.

Sydney’s popularity has increased dramatically in recent years, but she’s shared that she’s still learning how to handle being famous.

The famous actress shared that she’s still getting used to her own celebrity and achievements. In a 2023 interview with ES Magazine, she explained that she’s constantly learning how to balance being real and open with her fans while also handling her newfound fame, especially after appearing in popular shows like Euphoria and The White Lotus.

I definitely consider myself an open book. I share a lot, maybe even too much, and that could backfire, but I just don’t understand how people can pretend to be someone they’re not. That said, I don’t feel obligated to explain myself to anyone.

Sydney shared that she values her privacy and personal life. She explained she’s a very private person when it comes to family and relationships, and while she wants people to know her as an individual, she also needs space and quiet in her personal life. She admitted it’s a difficult balance to strike, and she’s still learning how to manage it.
