Zendaya, Sydney Sweeney allegedly avoid each other at ‘Euphoria’ Season 3 premiere
Zendaya and her 'Spider-Man: Homecoming' co-star Holland, are said to have wed
The relationship between Zendaya and Sydney Sweeney seemed anything but blissful at the “Euphoria” Season 3 premiere in Los Angeles.
The co-stars appeared to avoid each other at the glitzy affair, which, according to some, was expected by their peers.
“'Euphoria' officials are well aware of the two not meshing well. Tensions have been present since earlier times... their interactions were limited during the filming of Season 3,” a tipster told The Sun.
“During promotional events, the aim is to keep any encounters between them minimal to stave off awkward on-screen moments. Journalists are strictly prohibited from questioning them about any rift between Zendaya and Sydney.”
The root of their rumoured discord might be linked to Zendaya's partner — actor Tom Holland.
“It was widely known that Sydney was fond of Tom and showed flirtatious behaviour when he was on set,” the source claimed. “Zendaya wasn’t pleased about it. They've kept their social lives separate since then.”
Zendaya and her “Spider-Man: Homecoming” co-star Holland, 29, are said to have wed, though they haven't publicly confirmed it.
On Tuesday evening, Sweeney was all smiles on the red carpet at the TCL Chinese Theatre in a white cape dress, a 2007 archival piece by Pierre Cardin.
She snapped photos with co-stars including Maude Apatow, Alexa Demie, and Hunter Schafer — playing Lexi Howard, Maddy Perez, and Jules Vaughn, respectively — as they moved along the interview section.
On the other hand, Zendaya — looking stylish in a brown Ashi Studio SS26 Couture outfit — arrived fashionably late, barely missing a collision with Sweeney.
Jacob Elordi also showed up late, opting to skip interviews and just posed for photographs. The former couple plays Rue Bennett and Nate Jacobs on the show, respectively.
Adding fuel to the fire, Zendaya opted out of the cast’s formal afterparty at Chateau Marmont that night.
Sweeney, on the other hand, made an appearance with boyfriend Scooter Braun, with the pair holding hands and showing mild PDA in front of cameras.
Despite the absence of Sweeney and Zendaya interaction, a close source denied the feud talk, affirming that there’s no truth to the speculation.
Another insider indicated that, like Elordi, Zendaya’s late arrival meant missing the cast interactions. She came long after Sweeney, Demie, Apatow, and Schafer.
