Sydney Sweeney shows support for brother Trent amid military deployment

ALBAWABA - Sydney Sweeney shares emotional message as brother Trent serves in military deployment overseas.

Sydney Sweeney's brother, Trent Sweeney, has joined numerous other US forces in the ongoing war with Iran. The actor recently wrote on Instagram how delighted she was to be able to stay in touch with her sister. Besides her brother, she also showed love to other soldiers who were fighting for their country.

Sweeney recently put up a picture on Instagram stories of her enjoying FaceTime with her younger brother Trent. In the picture, the two of them were smiling at each other. It came with a message that discussed how much the Euphoria star loves her brother and how close they are. "Getting calls from my brother always makes me happy when he's deployed," she wrote. She also said, "Sending my love to all of our boys and girls across the ocean!" "Thank you for your service. :) "It's not clear if Trent's deployment has anything to do with the war that the US is still fighting in Iran.

Trent first tried to become an actress like his sister did by doing small parts and ads. He changed his mind, though, and decided to make a name for himself in the U.S. Air Force by starting basic training in April 2020. Sweeney used Instagram to share two pictures from their childhood to mark the event. She wished him luck in the caption and made fun of him by telling him to remember that she was "tougher" than him when things got tough.

In August of that year, he finished his training and allegedly joined the Munitions Squadron. He confirmed his achievement with an Instagram photo of himself holding his certificate with the words "AMMO!!!!" He was ranked Staff Sergeant after five years.

Trent streams video games like Helldivers II on Twitch under the name PeanutButterPaul when he's not working. Trent also likes to cook, travel, listen to music, and spend time with his dog and cat in his spare time, as his Instagram handle suggests.

Trent has usually stayed out of the press. But he has supported his sister's acting career and was happy for her when she was nominated for a SAG Award in 2019 for her part in "The Handmaid's Tale." He also got a lot of press last year for making fun of the controversy over Sweeney's American Eagle jeans ad.
