Sabrina Carpenter shuts down Barry Keoghan breakup rumors during Short 'n' Sweet promo

Singer Sabrina Carpenter has praised her boyfriend Barry Keoghan, putting rumors of a breakup to rest.

The 25-year-old American star expressed her admiration for Barry, calling him a "great actor," and acknowledged that their relationship has experienced ups and downs, but did not confirm any breakup in a recent interview.

The speculation about their romance intensified after an anonymous tip on the gossip site DeuxMoi claimed, "Sabrina and Barry broke up." Barry, who has earned several prestigious nominations including a Golden Globe and an Oscar, quickly dismissed the rumors by liking a post of Sabrina in lingerie promoting her album Short 'n' Sweet shortly after the gossip surfaced.

During an interview with The Guardian, Sabrina discussed her relationship and described it as "on and off." She also reflected on her music video for "Please, Please, Please," featuring Barry, calling it "One of the best experiences I’ve ever had," and humorously imitating herself saying, "Such a great actor."

Sabrina admitted that the spotlight wasn’t exactly what she had anticipated and expressed a desire to write honestly about her experiences as a 25-year-old, despite the challenges of fame. Rumors from The Sun suggested the couple may have split three weeks ago due to Barry’s behavior when intoxicated, but these claims remain unverified.

A source mentioned that Barry’s drunken behavior frustrated Sabrina, leading her to prioritize her own career as she prepares for her upcoming tour.

Additionally, Sabrina's fans were surprised to learn of her connection to Nancy Cartwright, the voice behind Bart Simpson from The Simpsons. Nancy, who also voices several other characters from the show and Chucky from Rugrats, had supported Sabrina’s music career since 2016. Fans expressed their shock on X, reacting to the revelation with disbelief and excitement.
