“I’m learning a lot about myself, spending more time with my friends. And I’m loving it,” Sweeney shared, reflecting on her current focus on self-discovery and personal growth.
Sources close to the actress indicated that the relationship had been "rocky for a long time," with Sweeney prioritizing her career amidst the breakup. “She’s exactly where she wants to be. 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,” an insider noted.

Despite the challenges of her engagement, Sweeney is channeling her energy into her work. The actress is set to return for a new season of Euphoria and will star in the film adaptation of the bestseller The Housemaid. Additionally, she is preparing to portray real-life boxer Christy Martin and screen legend Kim Novak in upcoming projects.
“She’s in the middle of this magical career that she could only dream of a few years ago. This is what she wants to focus on right now,” the source added, emphasizing Sweeney's commitment to her professional aspirations over personal commitments.
While Sweeney and Davino have been seen together post-split, sources suggest that their relationship was more than just a romance; it involved shared living arrangements and future plans. “This wasn’t just a relationship.

Throughout their time together, Sweeney maintained a level of privacy regarding their relationship. In a previous interview with Glamour UK, she expressed the importance of keeping certain aspects of her life out of the public eye. “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,” she stated.
In a February 2022 cover story for Cosmopolitan, Sweeney elaborated on her dating preferences, stating, “I don't date people in the spotlight. I don't date actors or musicians or anyone in entertainment because I can just be normal Syd that way and it's easiest.” She emphasized the value of having a strong support system that allows her to shine without feeling overshadowed.
“I look for a best friend,” Sweeney added. “I need to be able to be with someone who I can literally hang out with 24/7 and never get sick of and we laugh every single day.” As she navigates this new chapter in her life, Sweeney appears focused on both her career and personal happiness.
