Sydney Sweeney converting to Judaism may be on the table. According to a new Page Six report, the Euphoria star has met with two rabbis to discuss the process of converting — a striking sign of how serious her relationship with music mogul Scooter Braun has become.
The couple is reportedly talking about building a family together. “The couple is discussing having their own family and Scooter feels strongly on the subject,” a source told Page Six. That conversation, the outlet reports, is what has pushed the 29-year-old actress to seriously explore a religious conversion.
Converting to Judaism is no small undertaking. The process typically takes one to four years and involves rigorous religious study under the guidance of a sponsoring rabbi. Page Six reports that Sweeney has already sat down with two rabbis to learn what the journey would require.
Sydney Sweeney Converting to Judaism Would Mark a Major Personal Shift
Her parents, Lisa and Steven Sweeney, raised her in a Christian household in Spokane, Washington. Braun, 45, is Jewish. Meanwhile, the first whispers of a possible conversion surfaced on the celebrity gossip account DeuxMoi — but Page Six now reports that the actress is taking the idea seriously.
The couple has already worshipped together. Last month, Sweeney and Braun attended Rosh Hashanah services at Temple Sholom in Greenwich, Connecticut, where a witness said they “sat in the back.” The synagogue counts Big Bang Theory star Mayim Bialik among its congregants.
A Relationship Moving Fast
Dating rumors first linked Sweeney and Braun in June 2025, when photographers spotted them together around Jeff Bezos and Lauren Sánchez’s wedding festivities in Venice, Italy. Since then, they have made increasingly public appearances — including a trip to Venice in early September and a group vacation in Lake Powell, Utah.
For Sweeney’s 29th birthday on September 12, Braun posted a heartfelt public tribute. He called her “the woman who is the exception to every rule” and wrote that she made “the future feel like something I can’t wait to get to.” Page Six previously reported that Braun plans to propose within the next six months. Another source put it more bluntly: “He is trying very hard to marry her.”
The Marilyn Monroe Parallel
Braun has reportedly compared his girlfriend to one of Hollywood’s most enduring icons, calling Sweeney “the modern Marilyn Monroe.” The comparison carries an extra layer of meaning: Monroe converted to Judaism before marrying her third husband, playwright Arthur Miller, in 1956.
What Is Confirmed — and What Is Not
As with most celebrity stories built on unnamed sources, a note of caution is in order about the reports of Sydney Sweeney converting to Judaism. Neither Sweeney nor Braun has publicly confirmed the rabbi meetings or any conversion plans. In addition, fact-checkers debunked an earlier viral claim that Sweeney was converting and moving to Israel, tracing it to satirical social media posts. Attending holiday services with a partner, however meaningful, is not the same as beginning a formal conversion.
Still, the new Page Six reporting goes further than the earlier gossip, describing specific meetings with rabbis rather than vague speculation. For now, fans will have to wait for either star to address the story directly.
A Career in High Gear
The personal headlines arrive during a busy professional stretch for Sweeney. She returned as Cassie Howard for Euphoria season 3, which premiered in April 2026. She also starred opposite Amanda Seyfried in The Housemaid. It opened in December 2025 and became a major box-office hit. (Read our look at where the 365 Days cast — including Sweeney’s Housemaid co-star Michele Morrone — is now.)
In September, she signed with powerhouse agency CAA. That move followed a reported dust-up in which super-agent Ari Emanuel allegedly advised her to end things with Braun — a claim Emanuel’s representative firmly denied. So the relationship has already survived at least one Hollywood power struggle.
Sweeney and Braun are not the only celebrity couple sparking intense speculation this week — Kylie Jenner and Timothée Chalamet are also at the center of viral rumors. But a potential religious conversion would be a far more profound step than most Hollywood headlines. Whether Sweeney takes it remains to be seen — and the world will be watching.
