Sydney Sweeney, Scooter Braun pack on PDA during romantic gondola ride in Venice

Video Sydney Sweeney’s HBO show gets ‘freakier’ with new scenes FOX Business contributor Katrina Campins discusses criticism of Sydney Sweeney’s ‘freaky’ scenes on HBO’s ‘Euphoria’ and Jessica Simpson reportedly flying first class to Hawaii while her children flew coach on ‘Jesse Watters Primetime.’

Sydney Sweeney and Scooter Braun are not afraid to show a little PDA.

The couple were photographed getting cozy together while taking a ride through the canals of Venice, Italy on a gondola.

Braun wore a white button-down shirt which he paired with blue shorts, sunglasses and a backward baseball cap, while Sweeney wore a white dress, which she accessorized with a yellow cardigan draped over her shoulders.

In one of the photos, Sweeney is seen leaning over as she gives Braun a kiss, with her hands on his cheeks.

While celebrity matchmaker Alessandra Conti told Fox News Digital in May that this pairing "doesn’t make a whole lot of sense to an untrained eye" since Sweeney is a rapidly rising star and Braun "has an established executive role in the industry," Conti has high hopes.

"I love the idea of Scooter being that stable force in Sydney’s life right now. There is so much happening during this time for her, and having a strong, supportive force behind the scenes may be just what she needs to keep rising."

Sweeney was previously engaged to producer Jonathan Davino, who she was in a relationship with from 2018 until early 2025, when she called off their engagement.
