From Leonardo DiCaprio to Oprah Winfrey, all of Hollywood's finest descended upon the City of Canals for the nuptials. But one name managed to draw the most attention: Hollywood's latest it-girl Sydney Sweeney.
Page Six reports that Sweeney isn't friends with either of the pair. However, she was still present for the wedding due to her upcoming project with Amazon MGM Studios. A source cited in the report said that Sweeney 'came to pay respects to the 'boss,' just like in the old days of Hollywood', following through on her invite to the nuptials. Sweeney was last photographed with the couple at the Vanity Fair Oscars Party earlier this year.
Sweeney's latest project with Amazon was announced last month by Variety and is set to be a film adaptation of the 'Split Fiction' video game released earlier this year in March. The video game is based on two authors who become trapped in the fictional worlds they create. Wicked's Jon M Chu will be directing the project while the writers behind 'Deadpool & Wolverine' will be scribing the screenplay. Sweeney will be serving as executive producer of the project while the search is still on for her co-star.

During her time in Venice, rumors have hinted at a possible romantic spark between Sweeney and either of two other A-list guests: Tom Brady and Orlando Bloom.
