Sabrina Carpenter and Barry Keoghan have undoubtedly been one of the most talked-about couples of late 2023 and beyond. Their relationship gained even more attention after the singer released her “Please, Please, Please” music video, where Barry portrayed a bad boy character while Sabrina pleaded with him not to embarrass her with his reckless behavior.
Just when we thought the love triangle drama involving Sabrina, Olivia Rodrigo, and Joshua Bassett would dominate headlines for some time, the Irish actor entered the life of the “Espresso” queen. As rumors about their relationship began to swirl, the pair was spotted on dinner dates, attended the 2024 Oscars afterparty together, and before anyone could blink, they made their relationship official at the Met Gala.
However, the gossip has now taken a different turn, with strong rumors suggesting that this high-profile couple has decided to call it quits. Here’s everything we know about their current relationship status.
Are Sabrina Carpenter and Barry Keoghan over?
When “Please, Please, Please” was released, many began speculating about the lyrics, wondering if everything was really alright between Sabrina Carpenter and Barry Keoghan. Some fans even debated whether the song’s words were derogatory towards her boyfriend, suggesting that Sabrina was ashamed to be seen with him publicly.
While these theories were mere speculation, as the couple appeared to be perfectly fine with the roles they played in the music video, new rumors suggest that the fictional tension may have spilled into real life. A well-known gossip source on social media, @deuxmoiworld on X, claimed that the couple had broken up.
This popular accounts for celebrity tea allows people to anonymously submit gossip on their website, with all rumors being filtered by the creator. On August 16, the account reported that Carpenter and Keoghan had split, sending fans into a frenzy.
However, as you might suspect, this rumor appears to be shaky and poorly substantiated. It’s quite possible that a fan of Sabrina submitted the gossip to stir up conversation just ahead of her upcoming album Short n’ Sweet, boosting her relevance.
Notably, the two still follow each other on Instagram (with Barry following ONLY her), and just 24 hours ago, the “Saltburn” actor posted a photo of two hamburgers about to be eaten, suggesting that they are still together and happy.
