Rumors of the relationship between Sabrina Carpenter and Barry Keoghan first emerged in December 2023, when the two were spotted having dinner together in Los Angeles. However, their relationship actually started earlier, specifically at Paris Fashion Week the previous September, when they both attended the Givenchy fashion show.

During their time together, they often supported each other both at public events and on social media. Keoghan, the star of Saltburn, even attended Carpenter's performance at Coachella last April and starred in her music video, Please Please Please, which was released in June. He also frequently left sweet comments on Carpenter's Instagram posts.

In an October interview with Tracy Smith from CBS Sunday Morning, Carpenter revealed that choosing Keoghan for her music video was a "bias-free" decision — although she acknowledged that having Keoghan by her side at that time significantly influenced her choice. However, now, their love journey must come to an end, at least for the time being.

Keoghan did not hesitate to show his support for Sabrina Carpenter following the announcement of the 2025 Grammy nominations on November 8. In an interview on The Jess Cagle Show, the Irish actor expressed his pride in Carpenter's achievement, who received six nominations, including Song of the Year for the song Please Please Please. "Brilliant, I know. Absolutely amazing. Really amazing, guys," he said.

Keoghan added sincerely, "I am really happy for her, and I have to call her soon." When the host joked that Keoghan must have known Carpenter's hit song would be nominated for a Grammy while they were working on its music video, Keoghan replied, "Yeah, for sure, definitely." This shows how he has always supported Sabrina's career journey, even before the nominations were announced.
