Sydney Sweeney and Scooter Braun Announce Romance on Instagram
Actress Sydney Sweeney and music executive Scooter Braun have officially confirmed their relationship on Instagram after nearly a year of dating. The 28-year-old star shared a cozy black-and-white photo on her Instagram Story, showing her smiling broadly while Braun stood behind her. The image was captured by renowned photographer Eddy Chen.
Braun's Playful Social Media Response
Scooter Braun, the 44-year-old former manager of Justin Bieber, quickly reposted Sweeney's story with a humorous two-word caption: 'Lucky bastard.' This marked a significant public declaration for the couple, who have maintained a relatively private profile since their romance began last June.
Earlier on Wednesday, Braun had already hinted at his admiration by sharing a post celebrating Sweeney's professional success, noting she had achieved number one positions in both film and television.
Relationship Timeline and Public Appearances
The pair first connected at Jeff Bezos and Lauren Sanchez's wedding festivities in Venice during summer 2023. Sources revealed to Page Six that Braun became 'obsessed' with Sweeney after their initial meeting and actively pursued her following the wedding events.
Their relationship developed shortly after Sweeney ended her engagement to Jonathan Davino in March 2025. An insider told TMZ at the time that the actress was 'casually dating' as part of exploring life in her twenties.
Recently, the couple has become more visible in public. Braun accompanied Sweeney to the Euphoria season three premiere in Los Angeles last week, and they have been photographed together in New York on multiple occasions.
Sweeney's Perspective on Love and Privacy
In a recent Cosmopolitan interview published late last month, Sweeney opened up about the challenges of navigating romance under public scrutiny. 'I was in a relationship for a very long time, for seven and a half years, and I never talked about it,' she said, referring to her previous relationship with Davino.
The actress emphasized the importance of maintaining personal boundaries: 'I think it's important to have some things for myself. I understand that I'm a public person, but I'm still in my 20s.'
Sweeney admitted she's still 'figuring out love' and finds it difficult with millions of people offering opinions. She expressed a desire to experience life fully while deciding how much to share publicly.
Sweeney's Ideal Partner Description
When describing her type of man, Sweeney told Cosmopolitan she looks for someone 'athletic and outgoing and funny.' As a self-described sporty person, she wants a partner who can keep up with adventurous activities like mountain climbing and skydiving.
'And someone who loves their family,' she added. 'I love myself a man...' Her comments suggest Braun may fit this description as their relationship continues to develop in the public eye.
