UPDATE: September 26, 2025—Sydney Sweeney and Scooter Braun dating rumors don’t feel like rumors anymore.
On September 24, the surprising duo were photographed out and about in LA, with one anonymous source telling DeuxMoi that they shared a meal at Jon & Vinnys in Brentwood and are “1000% dating.” More photos have since been shared on social media and can be seen here.
It’s not surprising that the pairing has raised eyebrows, as both parties have been the subject of controversy with very little resolution. Braun’s reputation has never really recovered from his very public feud with Taylor Swift over the ownership of her masters—which sparked the entire Taylor’s Version project—while Sweeney has yet to respond to the discourse surrounding her bathwater soap and American Eagle ads that have gone viral for all the wrong reasons in recent months.
She sang “This Is Why We Can’t Have Nice Things” and “I Forgot That You Existed” on his birthday.
ORIGINAL STORY: September 3, 2025—Who had Sydney Sweeney and Scooter Braun relationship rumors on their 2025 bingo card? Because you may have just won. Let’s dig into these rumors, shall we?
On September 2, People reported that Sweeney, recently in hot water over her American Eagle jeans ad, and Braun, the music mogul perhaps best known for his dispute with Taylor Swift, are “casually hooking up.” An unnamed source told the outlet, “Everything is casual. She is living her life and working hard.” According to E! News, Sweeney and Braun were seen together at Jeff Bezos and Lauren Sanchez’s wedding back in June, and again at Harry’s Bar with other celebs like Karlie Kloss. One source told TMZ that Sweeney and Braun actually met at the Bezos and Sanchez wedding, but this has not been verified elsewhere. Another source told Us Weekly, “[Sweeney is] not exclusively dating anyone right now but is having fun with Scooter.” The only thing everyone seems to agree on is that this is not a serious relationship.
Star first reported on the rumors on August 29, after a TikTok video showing Sweeney and Braun together in Italy for the wedding surfaced online. Before this, however, there had been no whisper of a relationship between Sweeney and Braun.
In May, Sweeney confirmed her split from fiancé Jonathan Davino, which was first reported in March. Sweeney told the Times, “I’m learning a lot about myself, spending more time with my friends. And I’m loving it.” Even before the breakup, Sweeney was no stranger to relationship rumors. Thanks in large part to their on- and off-screen chemistry, she was suspected of having some kind of relationship with her Anyone But You costar Glen Powell, which they both routinely denied.
There has been no denial of the Braun relationship rumors, which means something. But it could mean less than you think.
