Actress Sydney Sweeney has made a surprisingly personal confession, revealing that her greatest fear is ending up alone. The 27-year-old Euphoria star shared this intimate detail during a rapid-fire question session with fellow actress Amanda Seyfried for a recent Vogue interview.
A New Romance Blossoms
Sweeney's revelation about her fear of solitude comes amid her developing relationship with 44-year-old music executive Scooter Braun. The pair first sparked romance rumours in June after crossing paths at the Venice wedding of Jeff Bezos and Lauren Sanchez. According to sources speaking to Page Six in September, Braun became 'obsessed' with the actress after their initial meeting and actively began pursuing her following the nuptials.
This new connection emerges just months after Sweeney ended her engagement to Jonathan Davino in March. Insiders described the relationship with Braun as 'casual dating,' with Entertainment Tonight reporting that both parties are keeping things 'low-key' for now.
Political Affiliations Come to Light
Beyond her personal life, Sweeney has recently found herself at the centre of political discussion after being confirmed as a Republican voter. This revelation followed backlash against her American Eagle campaign and surprised many fans of the famously liberal HBO show Euphoria.
Eagle-eyed observers had noticed clues about her political leanings since 2022, including references to her 'conservative' relatives, her mother's 'make 60 great again' birthday party, and an old video showing her handling a gun at a shooting range. The confirmation even drew an endorsement from former President Donald Trump, who told The Daily Mail he 'loves' the actress and her advertisement.
Small-Town Roots and Family Background
Sydney Sweeney grew up in a small, Catholic, Trump-supporting town in Washington state, experiencing what she describes as a 'religious' upbringing. Much of her family remains in the red state, which consistently voted for Trump during his presidential campaigns, though her father now lives 'off-grid' in Mexico.
Despite playing characters with liberal viewpoints, suspicions about Sweeney's own political alignment grew when internet investigators discovered pro-MAGA content on her family's social media accounts. The actress faced further criticism when she hosted a surprise party for her mother's 60th birthday where guests wore MAGA-style hats and 'Blue Lives Matter' shirts.
As Sweeney navigates both her new romance and increased public scrutiny of her personal beliefs, her candid confession about fearing loneliness reveals a more vulnerable side to the rising Hollywood star.
