Actress Sydney Sweeney has generated speculation about potential marriage plans during her appearance at the 83rd Venice Film Festival. The 28-year-old star has been photographed in a series of white outfits over three days, a color often associated with weddings. She was seen walking hand-in-hand with her boyfriend, music executive Scooter Braun, and they were also observed engaging in public displays of affection, including a passionate kiss during a gondola ride.
Sweeney arrived in Venice wearing a cream lace handkerchief top paired with cream bermuda shorts. Her festival wardrobe included a white strapless Chanel dress, a white lace Vivienne Westwood dress, and a strapless white minidress from Mango. She completed some of her looks with accessories like a necklace featuring the initials 'SB,' believed to be a tribute to Braun.
Sweeney is attending the festival in her capacity as an ambassador for Armani Beauty, accompanied by model Kendall Jenner. She does not have any film projects to promote at the event.
Prior to Venice, Sweeney and Braun were seen together in Los Angeles. The couple has been romantically linked since September 2025. Braun was previously married to Yael Cohen, with whom he shares three children: Jagger Joseph, Levi Magnus, and Hart Violet. Their divorce was finalized in 2022.
Sweeney and Braun's relationship has been developing since they met at a wedding in June of the previous year. After ending her engagement to Jonathan Davino in early 2025, Sweeney began dating Braun. Sources indicated at the time that they were taking their relationship slowly. By December, reports suggested their relationship had become serious and committed.
Sweeney has previously commented on public scrutiny of her personal life, stating in January that the attention on her relationships is difficult, especially as she navigates her 20s and explores love while being a public figure. Braun, in May, described Sweeney as an "extraordinary woman who is kind and generous and smart, and real and down to earth."
