Sydney Sweeney Maintains Professionalism Filming The Housemaid Amid Engagement Split

Director Paul Feig praised Sydney Sweeney for maintaining professionalism and emotional presence while filming the psychological thriller "The Housemaid" amid her breakup with ex-fiancé Jonathan Davino. Despite the personal turmoil, Sweeney was described as fully engaged and not bringing any issues to the set, often responding positively when Feig checked on her well-being. The film, shot in New Jersey in early 2025 and set for Christmas release, stars Sweeney alongside Amanda Seyfried and Brandon Sklenar. Sweeney and Davino, who began dating in 2018 and co-founded the production company Fifty-Fifty Films, called off their engagement earlier this year, with Sweeney acknowledging her single status and focusing on work and personal growth. While she declined to discuss her current professional relationship with Davino, sources indicated the split stemmed partly from the stress of her demanding work schedule. Sweeney expressed that she is embracing this period of self-discovery and enjoying spending time with friends.
