Barry Keoghan Deletes Instagram Amid Sabrina Carpenter Split

Barry Keoghan has disappeared from Instagram, deleting his account following his highly publicized breakup with Sabrina Carpenter.

The pair first crossed paths at a Paris Fashion Week event in fall 2023 and began dating exclusively in January. Since then, Keoghan had been a regular at Carpenter’s concerts, including her Coachella performance in April. The couple made their red carpet debut at the Met Gala a month later, and Keoghan even starred as Carpenter’s love interest in her “Please Please Please” music video.

Earlier this week, news broke that Barry Keoghan and Sabrina Carpenter ended their relationship after nearly a year together.

As of Saturday, December 7, Barry Keoghan’s official Instagram account now leads to an unavailable page with the message, “The link you followed may be broken, or the page may have been removed.”

Interestingly, Keoghan’s Instagram disappearance came shortly after he posted a series of photos on Friday.

The 32-year-old actor has not provided a reason for deactivating his profile. His X account, however, remains active, though his last post was on November 24.

Rumors and speculation have circulated suggesting that Barry Keoghan may have been unfaithful to Sabrina Carpenter, but there is no evidence to support these claims. “It’s been challenging for their relationship since she started going on tour and has been gone a lot,” a source told Us Weekly. “Their schedules were not aligning. All the time spent apart, it was hard to maintain a relationship amid her career exploding.”

Another insider spoke to PEOPLE Magazine, claiming, “Friends close to him share that he is at his strongest and happiest and is the best version of himself to date. He has been very resilient and triumphed through a lot to be in this great place.”

“He worked hard to get here and remains focused — and though he and Sabrina are on a break — that isn’t setting him back in any way — he has a lot of fortitude,” the insider added. “They had a great relationship and he really cared deeply about her — which you could see via the comments he would often leave on her Instagram page.”

The insider later emphasized that infidelity was not a factor in their breakup.

“He was always very faithful to her from the start,” the source said. “There was no third party involved in their break or at any other point in their relationship. Reports indicating otherwise are entirely fabricated.”

The news of their split followed a viral blind item shared on the gossip site DeuxMoi. The blind source alleged that a breakup had taken place between a rising pop star and her “foreign actor boyfriend” after she discovered he was unfaithful with a “semi-famous TikTok influencer.”

The source stated, “It appears that this A-list singer who’s having her breakout year and her foreign actor boyfriend are done for good.”

Barry Keoghan is doing well following his breakup with Sabrina Carpenter, according to a source who spoke with PEOPLE.

The Saltburn actor, 32, and the “Espresso” singer, 25, had an on-again, off-again relationship for about a year before mutually deciding to step back. Despite the end of their relationship, the source shared that Keoghan remains focused on his career and family.

According to the source, Keoghan is focused on being “a devoted dad” to his son, whom he shares with his ex-girlfriend, Alyson Sandro. He’s also actively involved in philanthropic efforts, including advocating for improvements in the foster care system and collaborating with The Hazel Project, which develops strategies to support foster children.

Barry Keoghan is rumored to be involved in Sam Mendes’ upcoming four-part Beatles biopic. Addressing the speculation, Ringo Starr shared his thoughts with Entertainment Tonight, saying, “I think it’s great. I believe he’s somewhere taking drum lessons—I hope not too many.”

Sabrina Carpenter, who received her first Grammy nominations last month, recently wrapped up the U.S. leg of her Short ’N’ Sweet tour. On Friday, December 6, she debuted her holiday special, “A Nonsense Christmas with Sabrina Carpenter,” on Netflix.
