Sydney Sweeney Wants To "Change The Public's Opinion Of Having A Kid"

In a recent interview with Glamour, Sydney Sweeney, 26, finally opened up about her love life with her rumored fiancé, Jonathan Davino. She has mostly stayed hush-hush about the lucky man because she wants to keep him to herself. “Everyone is always so curious about who I’m with and what’s that like, but I think it’s important to have something for me. I’m very open [otherwise]," the Euphoria star explained. "I talk about so much and sometimes it gets me in trouble, but I do try to keep something for me.” Turns out, Davino, 38, is not a restaurateur or the heir of a pizza company as reports previously claimed – a reflection of how often the media makes up stories about her romance. “It’s crazy,” she says. “And then when you Google it, it’s all wrong information.” “He’s not a restaurateur,” she added. “I have no idea where that came from. He’s also not the heir of a pizza company. He’s a business guy. He’s from Chicago. We’ve been watching [this narrative] for six years now, and I’m like, ‘What the hell?’” Both Sweeney and her Anyone But You costar, Glenn Powell, became enmeshed in cheating rumors during filming , even though she and Davino have been solid. “I’ve been in a steady relationship for a really long time, which is not normal in this industry and not normal for my age. What I’ve noticed about the idea of celebrity is people really love to build someone up, and then tear them down.” However, the blonde bombshell is becoming more open about her love life, especially when she and Davino work together. “We produced [ Anyone But You ] together,” Sweeney shared. “Jonathan is my producing partner, so he helped put the whole thing together. It’s really great to work with someone who knows you so well, who fully supports your ideas, your vision, and your voice.” She pauses, then adds, “And it’s nice. I mean, who doesn’t want to be with their best friend all the time?” Producing was rather new to Davino, but it’s been working out great for both of them. “I just wanted to bring everybody into my world.” As for her and Davino's purported engagement, she said, "no comment." Sweeney revealed that whenever she's in LA or NY, she thinks, “I’d be crazy if I had a kid or got married before I’m 30,” but that when she goes home to her loved ones, “All my friends or cousins are married and having kids. I’m like, ‘Oh my God, I’m behind the train right now. How can I pick it up?’ So honestly, it’s where I am in the world. It’s crazy.” She continued, “I've gotten to that point where I think that whenever it’s going to happen, it’s supposed to happen. It’s like that one thing in life that maybe you can’t plan – the perfect timing. I love to schedule my life, I love to know everything that is going on, I like to have a plan. I like to have my whole year scheduled out.” However, Sweeney is afraid she'll miss out on having a family if she doesn't make time soon. "I’ll just work my entire life away, because I love what I do," Sweeney said. "Otherwise, time will flash before my eyes, and I’ll be like, ‘I missed out on the important things.’” "I would love to change the public’s opinion of having a kid and still being on top of your game." When the time comes around for Sweeney to start a family, she “would love to change the public’s opinion of having a kid and still being on top of your game," noting, “that’s where a lot of my fear comes from.” She also wonders if she'll be “at the same level that I was on [professionally] or will I not be hired anymore or will everyone’s opinion of me change? That in itself is so crazy and sad that we’re still living in a time like that.” As the demonization of having kids grows, it's refreshing to see Sweeney discussing the negative public perceptions of motherhood. Given that she's talked about wanting to be a mom before, she seems rather passionate about debunking the notion that having a child might hinder your goals. Like Sweeney, I also hope that more people will become less rigid in their thinking and more accepting and understanding of motherhood. Sweeney also hopes that the toxicity of cancel culture improves. “I just hang out with my family, my team, and a couple of close friends, so I don’t know if I can speak on the entirety of Gen Z. I can only speak on my own personal experience being within Gen Z, and I think it’s awesome that people can speak up about what is important to them. We’re trying to navigate a world that is constantly changing. Social media is constantly changing. I wish there was more grace for others and allowing room for others to grow,” she expressed, referring to cancel culture. “I do wish that my generation was better about that.” Evie deserves to be heard.
