Sydney Sweeney’s romance with her new boyfriend Scooter Braun is heating up just months after she ended her engagement to her ex-fiancé.
She met Braun, 44, just over the summer at Jeff Bezos and Lauren Sanchez’s Venetian wedding in Italy and ever since, the pair have seemingly been inseparable.
Though Braun’s nemesis Taylor Swift appeared to throw shade at him and brought up their past feud yet again in one of the songs off of her new album, he seemingly paid no attention as he is too busy being smitten by his much-younger girlfriend.
‘He really, really likes her,’ a source close to the couple said after he attended her star-studded space-themed 28th birthday party in Los Angeles last weekend.
As their early-stages but ‘very real’ romance amps up, Sweeney reportedly spent Labor Day weekend with Braun during a romantic Lake Tahoe retreat and even introduced him to her parents.
Just last week, the ‘very happy’ lovebirds were spotted holding hands during an outing with her parents as they enjoyed a Halloween amusement park excursion together.

In recent weeks, the actress and the businessman have also been spotted on a number of intimate, low-key dates in Los Angeles.
‘It’s not a casual relationship,’ a source told Page Six. ‘It’s game on. It’s full throttle. They are together.’
At Sweeney’s birthday party over the weekend, she was dressed in a replica of Britney Spears’ iconic dress from her Circus album cover in 2008 as she partied with her friends who were dressed as sexy astronauts, aliens and iconic movie characters from famous sci-fi flicks.
Braun dressed up as a Jedi for the party but arrived separately from his girlfriend.
During the party, a partygoer noted that the pair were not overly loved-up as the actress was busy mingling with all of the attendees.
‘It was a huge party and there were so many people there,’ the insider, who also told the outlet that they previously worked with Sweeney, added. ‘She’s very private.’
They first met and struck up a romance during the Amazon billionaire’s nuptials in Venice in June.
The actress was seen mingling with Tom Brady and Orlando Bloom, but she reportedly was intent on pursuing Braun, a source revealed.

‘I can tell you that it’s very real and he’s very happy,’ the source said.
Sweeney’s newfound romance comes after she ended her engagement to businessman Jonathan Davino, 43, earlier this year after nearly seven years together.
The couple had reportedly been struggling with ‘major issues’ in their relationship, the insider said before adding that they were in ‘an incredibly toxic’ situation.
The source close to the couple claimed their romance is nowhere near a casual fling as they said: ‘I think anybody that goes public isn’t kidding around, right?’
Braun was previously married to mining heiress Yael Cohen, 38, for seven years before their split in mid-2021.
The source close to the new couple claimed that Braun’s marriage with Cohen had not been healthy.
‘It wasn’t a good relationship,’ the insider noted.

Braun and Cohen share three children and remain close while co-parenting their young children. Several months ago, he called his ex-wife ‘one of my best friends’ and said they still talk every day during a podcast episode appearance
Braun’s net worth surpassed a billion two years ago and retired last summer. ‘There’s nothing that he can gain off her,’ a source close to the couple said. ‘He’s not a user’; pictured in October 2024

Several months ago, he called his ex-wife ‘one of my best friends’ and said they still talk every day during a podcast episode appearance.
Braun’s net worth surpassed a billion two years ago and last summer the record executive, who once managed Justin Bieber and Ariana Grande, announced that he was retiring from music management after 23 years in the industry.
‘There’s nothing that he can gain off her. You know, he doesn’t need the money, he doesn’t need the deals, he doesn’t need the connections,’ a source close to the couple said. ‘He’s not a user.’
The insider added of what Braun could bring to Sweeney’s life during a pivotal time in her career.
‘He knows how to do deals. Everything that Scooter does always turns to gold.’
And while the pairing might seem like an unlikely match, the source added: ‘It’s kind of random, for sure, [but] sometimes those pairings work.’
On Saturday, Sweeney was seen attending the U.S. premiere of her new film Christy during the 33rd Annual Hamptons International Film Festival in New York
