Barry Keoghan and Sabrina Carpenter were one of the hottest couples in Hollywood a few years ago.

They were gushing on social media about each other, walking red carpets together and Barry even starred in her music video for Please, Please, Please.

However, the couple quietly parted ways in 2024 and social media sleuths wanted to know more.

Rumours swirled that Barry may have been unfaithful and he was met with a barrage of hate online, which caused him to delete his social media pages not long after.

Now the Dubliner has opened up about the end of the relationship and the onslaught of abuse.

Appearing on the podcast Friends Keep Secrets with hosts Lil Dicky, Dave Burd and Kristin Batalucco, he admitted that he considered stepping away from acting.

He confessed: “I feel in a safe space to say this, but I have been avoiding stuff. I came off Instagram and social profiles. I’ve stopped going to events. I’ve stopped just socialising.

“It’s because there’s a narrative out there that was never really even spoken on – a narrative that’s not true, and I never confirmed or said anything about it…You know, I just disappeared.

“Unfortunately, having a relationship in the public eye, we all know this from our own stories, but it gets put out there, and it’s amplified.”

He continued: “A girl made a video, and then a girl made the same video and said sorry for making that up, but no one seems to latch on to that video.

“I’m not asking for people to become my fan and like me because that’s not normal. I’m asking for people to stop assuming and also stop jumping on this narrative and attacking me and dragging me down in any way you can.

“I’m not saying this for pity. Why is it cool to hop on and beat someone up?”

He didn’t go into more detail to respect Sabrina’s privacy.
