Sydney Sweeney reveals terrifying day to day reality and says her 'actual safety is at risk’

'I should be able to be in my home and feel comfortable and safe'

Sydney Sweeney has said her 'actual safety is at risk' after being photographed outside her home without consent.

The Anyone But You star, 27, revealed photographers swarmed outside her Florida house and shouted at her family for her to 'come outside in a bikini'.

The actress, whose break-out role was Cassie Howard in HBO's Euphoria, has already dealt with unwarranted scrutiny about her physique.

Sweeney explained the terrifying reality of her everyday life in a new interview with Glamour magazine.

She told the publication of her ordeal: "[The photographers] said [to Sweeney's family], ‘If you tell her to just come outside in a bikini, I’ll take pictures and then I’ll leave you alone.'"

She then denied calling the paparazzi on herself, a common practice in Hollywood.

Sweeney slammed: “Why would I call the paparazzi to take pictures of me at my own house when my baby cousins and family are there and I’m in my backyard?

"Why would I ever want that? I have pictures of these guys in kayaks hiding in bushes in the ocean. They got there at 8am and wouldn’t leave until 4pm. I should be able to be in my home and feel comfortable and safe.”

Sweeney said she was most concerned about her location being leaked via the photos taken.

She explained: “When those photos go out, then my actual safety is at risk. Everyone knows where I am. Now there’s boats that go by, and I literally hear them say, ‘This is Sydney Sweeney’s house.’ It becomes a star tour in my front yard.”

Elsewhere in her Glamour interview, Sweeney said she gets told by young fans she's made them feel more confident in their bodies.

"That means a lot to me because I really believe in empowering others and feeling powerful with your body and embracing your sexuality," Sweeney said. "And if you have boobs, great. Flaunt them."

Sweeney's latest project, meanwhile, is a film based on a wild true story featuring a 'crazy threesome relationship'.

Set in the Galápagos Islands, Eden also stars Ana de Armas, Vanessa Kirby, Jude Law, and Daniel Brühl.

It is based on the true story of a group of European settlers who inhabited Floreana island, a southern island in the Galápagos Archipelago.

Sweeney had some difficult scenes to endure, with Vanity Fair revealing that her character gives birth in a remote cave while surrounded by wild dogs.
