Amidst the continuing, swirling maelstrom of backlash stemming from her controversial American Eagle jeans ad – one that has even managed to spur fresh support from none other than President Donald Trump – Sydney Sweeney is again making headlines, this time on a more personal level and without the help of denim.
After Hollywood’s seemingly omnipresent ingenue and her ex-fiancé, Jonathan Davino, parted ways in March, the now single Euphoria bombshell has been allegedly inundated with a flood of Instagram messages from athletes on some of the most elite clubs in the English Premier League.
Premier League Stars Are Reportedly Sliding into Sydney Sweeney's DMs
"Her Instagram DMs are packed with messages from famous men trying to get in contact with her. It's mostly guys playing for teams like Manchester United, Liverpool, and Arsenal,” a source close to Sweeney detailed to The Sun .
“They offer her trips to Europe to see them and take her on a date, but she's not the kind of person who does that,” the source added, noting that Sweeney reportedly has no problem thwarting advances from those who misbehave. “Some of them are very insistent and have even tried to find her address to send her flowers, but she always refuses."
For the 27-year-old Sweeney, who was with Davino since 2018 and engaged since 2022, advances like these from footballers in the Premier League and other professional athletes are nothing new. Since the former couple’s confirmed split this spring, Sweeney has been seemingly enjoying the single life in public as she reportedly partied with NFL legend Tom Brady at Amazon founder Jeff Bezos’s glitzy, high-profile wedding to Lauren Sanchez in Venice, Italy.
"I’d say more than 100 people, from celebs to millionaires or very rich people from the Middle East and Asia, contact her [Sweeney] every month,” continued the source.
Whether the suitors are from European or American football, even prior to Sweeney being seen in February without her wedding ring, fans have long speculated that the native of Spokane, Washington and her 41-year-old businessman beau Davino were navigating stormy weather in their relationship. Further compounding an onslaught of chatter in social media and mainstream news was the simultaneous issue of Glen Powell.
Sweeney and the Top Gun: Maverick star blew the doors off the rumor mill with their undeniable chemistry in their romantic-comedy film Anyone But You. The two skyrocketing celebrities didn’t exactly quiet the noise by gushing over one another during the film’s press tour or when to his younger sister’s wedding in Texas.
As Sweeney’s stock in Hollywood – and beyond – continues to head for the stratosphere, it’s unlikely that the deluge of suitors, whether from the Premier League, the NFL, or the silver screen, will stop flooding her inbox any time soon. Some parting advice to not get shutdown by the dog lover and burgeoning real estate mogul?
