Sydney Sweeney is reportedly exploring a possible conversion to Judaism as her relationship with Scooter Braun continues to grow more serious.
Sweeney, 29, has lately been exploring a conversion to Braun’s religion, Judaism, a source told Page Six, after Deuxmoi first reported that she was allegedly considering changing her faith.
A source claimed the Euphoria actress began considering the change after she and the 45-year-old music executive discussed starting a family. Sweeney recently appeared to reference Braun in a series of revealing vacation photographs shared online.
“The couple is discussing having their own family and Scooter feels strongly on the subject,” the source alleged.
The Daily Mail has contacted representatives for Sweeney and Braun for comment, but neither has responded.
Braun is already a father of three children with his former wife, Yael Cohen. The pair were married from 2014 until 2022.

Sweeney, 29, has reportedly been exploring conversion to Braun’s religion, Judaism, according to a source who spoke to Page Six
Page Six previously reported that Sweeney had attended Rosh Hashanah services with Braun at Temple Sholom in Greenwich, Connecticut.
“They sat in the back,” an alleged witness told the publication.
The outlet also cited a source who said Sweeney had met with two rabbis to learn more about the potential conversion.
The timeline for converting to Judaism varies by denomination. Reform conversions may take up to two years, while Conservative conversions can last as long as three years and Orthodox conversions may take up to five.
Those undertaking the process must also have a rabbi sponsor them throughout their conversion.
Earlier reports from Page Six claimed Braun was also considering proposing to Sweeney.
“He is trying very hard to marry her,” a source alleged in mid-September. “He is following her and chartering private planes. He’s going to stay focused on her until she marries him.”
The same source reportedly described Sweeney as Braun’s “modern Marilyn Monroe.”

Marilyn Monroe, whom the source allegedly compared to Sweeney, converted to Judaism after marrying playwright Arthur Miller, her third husband, in 1956.
Last week, Sweeney appeared to suggest that her romance with Braun was intensifying when she shared a series of sizzling social media snapshots from their recent vacation.
In one image, the Euphoria star posed in a plunging red Baywatch-inspired swimsuit that struggled to contain her famous curves.
In another cheeky photo, a shirtless Braun lifted Sweeney into the air and held her up by wrapping his arms around her waist.
Other photos showed the group jet skiing, hiking, dancing and shooting off fireworks.
‘When your man takes you to the moon,’ Sweeney captioned the images.
The couple started dating a year ago after first meeting at Jeff Bezos and Lauren Sanchez’s wedding, and clearly their spark is still going strong.
In recent photos promoting her lingerie line SYRN, Sweeney wore a gold chain necklace featuring the initials of her boyfriend, 45.
Two delicate ‘S’ and ‘B’ charms served as the focal point of the necklace.
After Sweeney and Braun first started dating last year, a source told Entertainment Tonight at the time that the couple was ‘trying to be as low-key as possible, while still dating and having fun.’
Interestingly, a source previously claimed that Braun considers Sweeney to be ‘the modern Marilyn Monroe.’ Monroe converted to Judaism after marrying her third husband, playwright Arthur Miller, in 1956; above, Miller and Monroe in 1957

Should love ever influence someone to change their lifelong beliefs or religious faith?
‘They are just taking things slow and enjoying their time together,’ the source added.
By December, it was revealed that the couple was getting ‘serious.’
‘Scooter and Sydney are going strong and things between them are great. They’re in a committed relationship and things are serious,’ a source told People.
In January this year, Sweeney told Cosmopolitan about the speculation around her love life.
‘Sometimes I’ll think that I can do a normal thing and have a date in a normal way, and then it gets perceived in a very non-normal way. It’s kind of sad,’ she shared.
On going public with her romance, she said: ‘I understand that I’m a public person, but I’m still in my 20s. I’m still figuring out love, and it’s hard to do that with millions of people who have their own opinions of what that looks like…
‘At the same time, for all of my 20s, I put my head down and focused on work—and now I want to experience things. But it’s hard deciding that I want to experience love in the public eye. I’m just navigating it all.’
In May, Scooter said on the Second Thought With Suzy Weis podcast: ‘I’ve met an extraordinary woman who is kind and generous and smart, and real and down to earth.’
They’re sentiments he echoed while wishing Sweeney a happy birthday earlier this month, praising her ability to make the ‘ordinary’ feel extraordinary.
‘Happy birthday to the woman who is the exception to every rule. The person who surprised me and showed me how life with true partnership can be lived,’ he began.
‘You make me smile harder, laugh louder, adventure more, and dream bigger. You’ve made the ordinary feel exciting and the future feel like something I can’t wait to get to. A giggle can change an entire day.
