Sydney Sweeney helped police catch a burglar.
The 'Anyone But You' actress was filming on the East Coast when her security cameras alerted her to a person sneaking around the grounds of her Los Angeles property at around 3.30am on Monday (14.10.24) before making their way over to her neighbour's home.
According to TMZ, the intruder entered the neighbour's house and stole unspecified items but because Sydney alerted the authorities to the situation at her home, police were able to rush to the adjacent property and surrounding area, resulting in the suspect behind apprehended.
The alleged culprit has now been charged with felony burglary, largely due to the 'Euphoria' star's quick thinking.
Meanwhile, the 27-year-old actress recently dismissed speculation she relies on her fiance Jonathan Davino - who she got engaged to last year after five years together - for financial support.
She told Glamour magazine: "I’m a very successful, independent woman who’s worked really hard. I’ve accomplished and bought everything myself, and I provide for myself and my family."
Sydney went on to insist her 40-year-old partner is not a financial backer for her Fifty-Fifty Films production company, but she does like to use him as a sounding board for her ideas.
She added: "I would love to set the record straight. You can be in a healthy relationship with someone and also be very successful without needing the man. We’re teammates. We’re in it together. And we want to see each other succeed."
The 'White Lotus' star went on to reveal she doesn't take her financial security for granted since she started earning big bucks in Hollywood and she will never be able to feel "comfortable" because her parents previously went through bankruptcy .
She added: "I come from a family where I saw my parents lose everything, and I am terrified of that. That fear will always be instilled in me. I’m a huge saver.
"I don’t just go and spend money. I like to invest. I like real estate. I like making, hopefully, smart choices with the money I’m making. But I don’t think I’ll ever actually feel comfortable."
