Sydney Sweeney’s Latest Outing Amid Split Rumors Has Fans Recalling a Controversial Rumor About Her
Sydney Sweeney may have tried to keep her personal life a bit more on the private side, but when you’re one of Hollywood’s most in-demand actresses, the rumor mill has a way of spinning itself. Case in point? The frenzy surrounding her relationship with her fiancé, Jonathan Davino. These two, who’ve been linked since 2018 and got engaged in 2022, are reportedly at a relationship pit stop. Sources have recently noted that things aren’t exactly peachy for the pair, but the duo hasn’t called it quits (yet). Wedding plans are allegedly on ice, and naturally, fans can’t help but start reading between the lines.
Exhibit A? Sweeney threw up a series of solo swimsuit snaps on Instagram over the weekend, radiating the kind of “I’m thriving” energy we last saw from Jennifer Lopez during her post-Affleck glow-up. Cue the tidal wave of speculation. Was this Sweeney’s way of saying she’s single again? Or just an innocent offering of spring break vibes?
Well, that’s where Exhibit B comes in. The day after her thirst-trap masterpiece, the White Lotus star was spotted grabbing Tex-Mex in Dallas with none other than her Anyone But You co-star, Glen Powell. Now, if you’ve been living under a Netflix-induced rock, you might not remember the drama these two were magnetic during their rom-com promo tour back in 2023, where their chemistry had people wondering if their movie magic was spilling into real life. Remember that viral ASMR-flirting TikTok they teased us fans with? Yeah, the internet hasn’t forgotten either.
What makes this little reunion extra spicy is the timing. Powell and Sweeney aren’t currently promoting anything together. Yet there they were, sipping cocktails and munching on chips like two coworkers who stumbled into a rom-com subplot. Oh, and Powell was in town for his sister’s wedding, which Sydney reportedly also attended, according to anonymous insiders via Deuxmoi, per Page Six. What’s casual meal between friends… or something more?
This isn’t the first time Sweeney’s love life has been under the microscope. Back in 2023, she told Variety that the constant rumors felt like a sucker punch, saying she couldn’t defend herself without feeding the drama machine. But whether intentional or not, this latest outing has internet sleuths reliving that Powell-Sweeney rumor reel.
Is this all just a coincidence? A savvy PR moment? Or just a moment between two friends that happened to get caught on camera at an awkward time? Whatever the case, we’re hoping Sweeney feels more in control of the narrative this time around.
