Sydney Sweeney has called off her engagement to businessman Jonathan Davino, choosing to focus on her career. The couple, who had been engaged since 2022, had reportedly been facing difficulties for a while, with sources indicating their relationship had been "rocky for a long time." Recently, rumors of a breakup had surfaced after reports suggested Sweeney had been living separately from Davino.
A source confirmed to People on March 31 that the Euphoria star, now 27, is putting her professional life first, saying she’s "exactly where she wants to be." The insider added that despite her intense work schedule, Sweeney is thriving and fully committed to her career at this time. “Most people would feel overwhelmed by her working schedule this year, but not Syd. She’s all about working right now and very excited about all her projects,” the source shared.
Sweeney’s career is certainly on an upward trajectory, with a packed lineup ahead. She’s preparing for the new season of Euphoria, a film adaptation of The Housemaid, and roles as Christy Martin, the boxer, and Kim Novak, the iconic screen star. Despite her busy schedule, the pressure from her relationship and wedding plans reportedly became overwhelming. According to the insider, “What did make her overwhelmed though was her relationship and her wedding. She didn’t feel right about it.” It became clear that Sweeney wasn’t ready to settle down at this point in her life and instead wanted to concentrate on her professional growth.
The breakup, while seemingly abrupt, was a long time coming. The source noted that the couple only lasted as long as they did because Sweeney found it difficult to end things. She has always been an advocate for her independence, something she highlighted in a Glamour interview from October 2024. Sweeney emphasized her self-reliance, saying, "I’m a very successful, independent woman who’s worked really hard. I’ve accomplished and bought everything myself, and I provide for myself and my family."
Recently, Sweeney has been sharing moments of solo joy on her social media, including bikini photos and a hot-air balloon ride captioned “only up from here.” She also joined her Anyone But You co-star Glen Powell at his sister’s wedding in Texas, which further fueled speculation about her single status.
For now, Sweeney seems to be keeping her personal life private and is more focused than ever on her flourishing career. Fans are supportive as she continues to rise in Hollywood, and it’s clear that she’s prioritizing her professional ambitions over relationship matters at this point in her life.
