Guess Who Sydney Sweeney Saw This Weekend

She broke up with her fiancé in the spring, and then met Scooter Braun at Jeff Bezos and Lauren Sanchez's wedding. Ever since, the couple had been on the path to something as serious as two unserious people can get. Until now?

Guess Who Sydney Sweeney Saw This Weekend

It’s a tale as old as time: woman breaks off her three-year engagement, gets into a relationship with Justin Bieber‘s toxic former manager (and the asshole who bought Taylor Swift‘s masters), only to wind up back in her ex’s SUV. You already know who I’m talking about…

Over the weekend, Sydney Sweeney was spotted at Giorgio Baldi (aka Rihanna‘s favorite restaurant) watching Game 7 of the World Series in a private space. According to the Daily Mail, the MAGA pin-up was in “great spirits” as she chatted with her table. Then, things got interesting…

As Sweeney departed the restaurant, she hopped into a waiting black car. Nothing new for a celebrity there. However, said black car only took her a few blocks before depositing her at a different idling vehicle. And this one? Driven by her ex-fiancé, Jonathan Davino. Gasp!! Paparazzi happened to capture Sweeney ducking down in the passenger seat. But both the Daily Mail and TMZ reported that she didn’t linger: An “insider” reported that, as she got out of his car near her home, she screamed: “I don’t believe you. Please leave, leave me alone.” Oof.

Sweeney and Davino were an item for seven years, and back in March, rumors that the pair had split began to circulate. “They were supposed to get married this spring,” a source told Us Weekly at the time. “The wedding is not happening, and they aren’t having further discussions about it. Sydney wanted to cancel everything and couldn’t handle the stress.” Fast forward to September, Sweeney was spotted with Scooter Braun. They reportedly met at the Venice nuptials of Jeff Bezos and Lauren Sanchez. Ever since, it seems the new couple had been on the path to something as serious as two unserious people can get.

“The attraction is she is hot as can be and he is an old soul who is helping her guide her way through sudden fame and her exploding career,” a source told the Daily Mail of the pairing. “He gives great advice. They have what each other wants.”

That may be true! But multi-year engagements usually don’t just fade into memory. The protracted cycle of meeting up just to rehash why exactly you broke up is a time-honored tradition, even for much shorter relationships. Can’t exactly say I’m rooting for Scooter but you know what, I think he’s gonna be OK.
