Actress Sydney Sweeney’s recent film, “Anyone But You,” reached a milestone of more than $200 million at the box office. Now the 26-year-old is revealing how she’s using her financial success to repay the people she owes the most to: her parents.
“I recently paid off my mom’s mortgage,” Sweeney, 26, said WhoWhatToWear. “As a child, I always dreamed of being able to take care of my parents, so it was a really big thing for me to be able to do that.”

Sweeney says his family is nearby and when he has free time, he hops on a flight back to Spokane, Washington. She also spends her time with her parents Lisa and Steven Sweeney who are divorced.
“I try to incorporate [my family] in my life as much as possible, whether it’s talking to my cousins every other day or going home,” he said. “My success, quote-unquote, didn’t come until I was in my twenties, so my parents didn’t really understand A [experience it with me].”
Sweeney hasn’t disclosed what she makes per episode of the hit HBO drama “Euphoria,” but noted in an interview in July 2022 that she couldn’t afford to take time off from work.

“If I wanted to take a six-month break, I wouldn’t have any income to cover it,” he said The Hollywood journalist at the moment. “They don’t pay actors like they used to anymore and with streamers you don’t get residuals anymore. Established stars still get paid, but I have to give 5% to my lawyer, 10% to my agents, 3% or something like that to my sales manager. I have to pay my publicist every month, and that’s more than my mortgage.”
Second Celebrity Net Worth, Sweeney is worth about $10 million.
