Sabrina Carpenter Reveals Horrible Evidence that Confirmed that Barry Keoghan ‘CHEATED on her with a TikTok influencer’ as the pair split after a year-long romance: ‘I know from the beginning, especially after the… See more

Barry Keoghan has been hit by unfounded claims that he cheated on Sabrina Carpenter, after it was reported that the pair had split after a year of dating.

A source told People that the couple have decided to go their separate ways in a bid to focus on their respective careers.

Now, a blind item on gossip site Deuxmoi has claimed that a breakup between a rising pop star and her ‘foreign actor boyfriend’ occurred because he’d cheated on her with a ‘semi-famous TikTok influencer’.

While the item did not name Barry or Sabrina, fans were quick to claim that the piece was about them.

The item read: ‘It appears that this A-list singer who’s having her breakout year and her foreign actor boyfriend are done for good.

‘On the closing night of her biggest tour to date in LA, he was busy getting very cozy at San Vicente Bungalows with a blonde, semi-famous, LA based influencer (who’s particularly big on TikTok).

‘I snooped around a bit out of curiosity and apparently he and his popstar girlfriend called it quits very suddenly less than a week before her final shows in LA after she found out he had been chatting with said influencer behind her back for months in a not-innocent-at-all way…’

The item also claimed that the influencer ‘had even gone to find [Barry] while he was filming in the UK, eager to keep him company while his girlfriend was touring in the US’.

They added: ‘He had messed up before and she had forgiven him but nothing as serious and infidelity is where she draws the line.’

MailOnline has contacted representatives for Sabrina Carpenter and Barry Keoghan for comment.

Barry split from his ex-girlfriend Alyson Sandro in 2023 after three years together, and it was rumoured at the time that he cheated on her with Sabrina.

Following reports of his split from the Espresso hitmaker, fans of the couple couldn’t contain their feelings, and they vented a mix of grief and relief at the breakup on social media.

Posts on X included: ‘Damn, the fans are going to [go] berserk; Well, happy new beginnings to both Sabrina and Barry if it is true.’

‘Omg I’m heartbroken; Bummer. Oh no. Sad to hear.’

But another fan, who seemed please by the report, posted: ‘Good bc she can do way better.’

One fan theorized baselessly that the couple’s seven-year age difference was what led to the end of their relationship.

‘i told you guysssssss this wasa nevern it AT ALL the age difference duhhhhh [sic],’ they wrote on X.

Another fan made a punny joke referencing Sabrina’s hit song: ‘Man said he want some decaf and tired of expresso.’

Some fans joked that they thought they had a chance with either of the newly single stars.

‘Good to know he’s single now…’ one person wrote of Barry.

Some of Sabrina’s fans reacted to the breakup report through the prism of her music.

‘we getting a heartbeat break album omfg [sic],’ one person enthused.

There were few public signs of trouble in paradise for the all-star couple.

Earlier in November, the Banshees Of Inisherin actor had complimented his love on her work ethic after she earned her first-ever Grammy Award nominations.

Just a few days before that he gushed that he was ‘incredibly blessed’ to be with Sabrina while appearing on Louis Theroux’s podcast, but those comments were a departure for the usually tight-lipped couple, and they don’t appear to have made more substantial comments about their relationship in recent weeks.

Sabrina and Barry were first linked back in early December of 2023.

The couple had met just a few months earlier, in September. The Espresso singer attended a screening of Barry’s polarizing thriller Saltburn earlier in the month, which may have prepared her for their official meeting at the Givenchy runway show at Paris Fashion Week.

Sabrina and Barry’s relationship heated up to the point that he even starred with her in the music video for her single Please Please Please.

The lovebirds played a Bonnie and Clyde–like duo in the video. Sabrina appeared as a woman who was released from jail just as the heartthrob was being jailed.

But she got more than she bargained for after bailing him out, as she got caught up in a bloody showdown with a mob boss and an armed bank robbery that Barry’s character led.

At the time, Sabrina claimed that she chose Barry to star with her in the video because she thought he was one of the most talented actors of his generation, rather than just because he was her boyfriend.

Although the couple made few public statements about their romance, the film star appeared to be a devoted boyfriend in public after attending Sabrina’s performance at the Coachella Music Festival in April of this year.

But there were hints of trouble between Sabrina and Barry when a source claimed to People in August that the couple’s relationship was ‘on and off.’

Barry previously had long-term relationships with Shona Guerin (from 2017 to 2020) and Alyson Kierans (from 2021 to 2023).

He and Kierans welcomed a son named Brando in 2022.

Sabrina previously had a high-profile romance with the Disney Channel actor Joshua Bassett from 2020 to 2021, and she was linked to singer Shawn Mendes early last year.
