‘The Housemaid’ Star Sydney Sweeney and Scooter Braun Step Out for Cozy NYC Date Night
Sydney Sweeney has been splitting her time between a busy filming schedule and a very public romance, and New York City has become one of her favorite backdrops for both. The ‘Euphoria’ star was recently spotted on the set of ‘The Housemaid’s Secret’ in Hoboken, New Jersey, keeping her close to the city during production.
Her relationship with music executive Scooter Braun has been steadily unfolding in front of the cameras for more than a year now. What began as quiet speculation has turned into one of Hollywood’s most closely watched pairings.
The couple’s latest outing took place on October 18, when they were photographed holding hands in Union Square. Sweeney wore a little black playsuit layered with a loose cream sweater, finishing the look with black stilettos and ’90s-inspired sunglasses.
Braun complemented her style perfectly, putting a fresh spin on his-and-hers dressing. He wore an off-white sweater with gray chinos, black shoes, and a red baseball cap, and the pair looked relaxed as they strolled through the city together. Sweeney was later spotted in the West Village several hours after the date. Photos of the couple quickly made the rounds online, with fans praising how happy the 2 looked.

The pair first crossed paths in June 2025 at Jeff Bezos and Lauren Sánchez’s wedding in Venice. Rumors picked up that September, when sources said they were casually dating and Braun attended Sweeney’s birthday celebration.
By December 2025, sources described the relationship as serious and committed. Braun made things Instagram official in April 2026 by resharing a black-and-white photo of the 2 of them on his Instagram Stories.
Sweeney followed with her own posts in May, sharing photos from Stagecoach with the caption “Cowboy kind of weekend.” She later posted clips of the couple on the beach and in a helicopter.
New York has played a starring role in their love story. In May, Braun shared a video of an incognito date night where the pair biked through the city in hoodies and sunglasses, after Sweeney admitted she had never been to Times Square.
The couple also cheered on the Knicks at the NBA Finals in coordinating outfits, and Sweeney surprised Braun with tickets to the deciding game in San Antonio. Braun even visited her in Australia while she was filming ‘Gundam’, and the pair later went on an adventurous plane date that had Sweeney playfully comparing herself to Tom Cruise.
Braun has been open about his feelings in public. Speaking on the ‘Second Thought’ podcast in May, he described meeting an extraordinary, kind, and down-to-earth woman and called the romance one of the biggest surprises of his life.
The relationship has also brought their families together. Braun, who shares 3 children with ex-wife Yael Cohen, has reportedly introduced Sweeney to his kids, while she has introduced him to her brother.
In September, Braun marked Sweeney’s birthday with a public tribute calling her the exception to every rule. The couple has a 16-year age gap, though they appear unbothered by any outside commentary.
From Venice to Union Square, Sweeney and Braun have gone from rumored pairing to a confident, very public couple. Their latest stroll through New York suggests the romance remains as strong as ever, even as Sweeney juggles major film projects. With more filming ahead and plenty of public appearances likely on the horizon, fans can expect to see much more of the pair together.
