Barry Keoghan Goes All Gushy Over Sabrina Carpenter's Talent, Says He Is 'Incredibly Blessed' with Her

Keoghan Opens Up About His Relationship with Carpenter on Podcast

Oscar-nominated actor Barry Keoghan talks to Spotify's The Louis Theroux Podcast about his romance with singer Sabrina Carpenter. When asked about his romance with the "Feather" hitmaker, Keoghan giggled before admitting, "Oh, I knew you'd do this." He added: "I'm incredibly blessed. She's a strong, independent lady who's massively talented and yeah, pretty special."



News broke of their romance late in 2023.

Dating rumors around Keoghan and Carpenter started in the second half of 2023 when the couple made their first public appearance together at the Vanity Fair Oscars afterparty this March. Keoghan also made an on-screen appearance with Carpenter in her music video for "Please Please Please," a single from her latest album Short n' Sweet.

Fans Think Carpenter's Songs Address Keoghan

After the album dropped on Aug. 23, fans immediately theorized that some songs were about Carpenter's relationship with the Irish actor, particularly the song "Bed Chem." In the song, Carpenter sings about a quick yet memorable first encounter, citing specifics that fans believe could be Keoghan—"the cute boy with the white jacket and the thick accent" and "wide, blue eyes."

Keoghan Fuels Speculation by Complimenting Carpenter's Song

Keoghan fueled further speculation by taking to his Instagram Stories to post about the song. He shared a link to Carpenter's album, sharing that "Bed Chem" was his favorite song, jokingly saying, "Just sayin' m'darlin," and tagging Carpenter in it. He told his followers, "Tap that link lads!!" which only heightens excitement among fans who love to see the couple's interactions in public.
