Sydney Sweeney is using her Hollywood success to help out her family.
The Emmy-nominated "Euphoria" and "The White Lotus" star, 26, revealed on Tuesday during an appearance on "The Kelly Clarkson Show" that she bought back her family's generational home.
"My great-grandma had this beautiful house; it was a two-bedroom cute house that they lived in. My grandma was born in it. My mom was born in it, and then as the kids got older, they built on the property another home," Sweeney told Clarkson. "And when my great-grandpa passed away and my great-grandma got old they just couldn’t afford to keep it anymore."
Sweeney, who is from a town near Spokane, Washington, decided to bring the home back in to her family last year.
"I called up the owners and I said, 'I want to buy my great-grandmother’s house back,'" Sweeney said. "My 'grandy' still lives in the house next door," she added. "So I'm neighbors with my grandy now."
The "Anyone but You" star often talks about how close she is to her large family. Last year, she told "Live with Kelly and Mark" that "I always grew up really close with all my family – all my cousins and aunts and uncles and we all grew up in a small little area. I love to share this world with them because it's very different and not normal."
She's even brought her grandmothers to work with her, and they became extras in her film "The Voyeurs."
Sweeney also had her family's support when she started pursuing an acting career as a pre-teen. The actress, her parents and her brother moved to Los Angeles when she was 13, and the three of them lived in a one-bedroom motel room, she told The Hollywood Reporter.
"I thought that if I made enough money, I’d be able to buy my parents' house back and that I’d be able to put my parents back together," she said. "But when I turned 18, I only had $800 to my name. My parents weren’t back together and there was nothing I could do to help."
