This weekend, Sydney Sweeney was spotted at Glen Powell’s sister’s rehearsal dinner just days after it was reported that she had called off her own wedding. Is that timing weird? Maybe, but don’t read too much into it. Since they were in the same place at the same time amid rumors of Sweeney’s relationship troubles, speculation about Sweeney and Powell as a romantic pairing has reignited. However, a source has come forward to announce that the actors (who do have an undeniable chemistry) are still not dating.
The rumor mill got going on Sunday when DeuxMoi shared photos of Sweeney and Powell attending his sister Leslie Powell’s rehearsal dinner in Dallas. A few days prior, tabloids reported that Sweeney and her fiancé, Jonathan Davino, had called off their wedding amid “major issues.” With these two pieces of information, the DeuxMoi commenters went wild, the prevailing theory being that Powell had brought his Anyone But You co-star as his date to his sister’s wedding.
“I love when PR chemistry turns real,” one person wrote. “His ex girlfriend knew it … Smart girl,” wrote another commenter, nodding to Powell’s former flame Gigi Paris. Those two broke up in 2023, and many onlookers were guessing that Powell and Sweeney’s flirtatious vibe might have had something to do with the split.
Sorry to burst everyone’s bubble, but Sweeney and Powell are still not dating, at least according to one anonymous source. Sweeney is just friends with Powell’s sister. The source also told TMZ that the two actors did not attend the rehearsal dinner as a couple and that Sweeney brought her best friend as her date to the wedding. They added that Sweeney is “very good friends with the Powell family” and has been “very close” with Leslie Powell “for a long time.” Sure enough, here they are on Leslie’s Instagram Story looking very close at the wedding reception:
“Page Six” went so far as to speculate that Sweeney might have been in the bridal party because she and Leslie’s bridesmaids wore blue. Maybe! Meanwhile, no one is talking about the other good-looking former co-star of Powell’s who was at this wedding: John Stamos. Where are those dating rumors?
