7 June 2024: Barry Keoghan stars in Sabrina Carpenter's 'Please Please Please' music video

6 May 2024: Barry Keoghan and Sabrina Carpenter photographed together at the Met Gala
Barry and Sabrina arrived at the event together but walked the red carpet separately. However, they joined up after the red carpet and were spotted together for a rare photograph.
Dressed to the theme of 'Sleeping Beauties: Awakening Fashion' they looked adorable linked arm in arm. Many think their outfits were inspired by Alice in Wonderland with Barry as the Mad Hatter and Sabrina as Alice.
19 April 2024: Sabrina references Saltburn in her final Coachella Weekend 2 'nonsense' outro
Whilst performing on the Coachella Stage during Weekend 2, Sabrina used her iconic 'nonsense outro' to tease her man.
The pop star sang “Made his knees so weak, he had to spread mine / He’s drinking my bath water like it’s red wine / Coachella, see you back here when I headline,” referring to Barry's 2023 hit film Saltburn where he starred alongside Jacob Elordi.
The "drinking my bath water like it's red wine" line directly refers to the scene from the film that went viral where Barry's character drinks the bath water of his obsession, Felix, after spying on him pleasuring himself in the bath.
Sabrina Carpenter references her boyfriend Barry Keoghan’s bathtub scene in #Saltburn in her final “nonsense” outro:

12 April 2024: Sabrina flirts with Barry from Coachella stage
In the middle of her incredible Coachella 2024 set Sabrina noticed her boo looking lovingly towards her while she took an animated break between songs.
Locking eyes with Barry, who was dressed in a white tank and Burberry shorts, she threw up a little peace sign followed by an adorable wave to him.
The camera panned across to Barry who looked giddy with excitement, despite his face being partially covered with bandanna.
11 April 2024: Barry reacts to Sabrina's new song 'Espresso'
Mr Keoghan is not afraid to publicly give his lady the flowers she deserves and another example of this was when she announced that her new song 'Espresso' had been released.
Just an hour after she posted he commented 'Tuuuuunnne M'darlin !!'.
1 April 2024: Barry comments on Sabrina’s SKIMS ad.
On the first of April, Sabrina Carpenter posted a carousel of images where she was posing in Kim Kardashian’s SKIMS underwear.
In the caption, the singer wrote, “Hellooo it’s Sabrina your spring @skims girl,” but it was Barry’s interaction with the post that grabbed everyone’s attention.
He commented on the post with the fire emoji, the hot sweaty face emoji and finally physically typed out the words “barbie emoji”, referring to Sabrina’s sweet look in baby pink lingerie, with her blonde blowout.
16 March 2024: Barry hangs out with Travis Kelce.
The dots behind the scenes began to connect, with Barry hanging out with Travis Kelce backstage at Justin Timberlake's Los Angeles concert.
With both their girlfriends touring together, it made sense that the boys would have a night with one another too, right?
Barry posted the photo to his Instagram stories with the text, "When BK met TK," including two prayer hand emojis.
10 March 2024: Sabrina and Barry are seen at an Oscars after-party together.
Whilst Sabrina and Barry weren’t ready to walk the red carpet hand in hand, they did pose with one another inside the Vanity Fair Oscar's After Party.
Not only that, but the pair were papped heading home together after said party.
Sabrina was seen with Barry’s jacket over her shoulders as they walked out and left the venue.
10 March 2024: Barry is photographed wearing a SABRINA bracelet.
That same night, Barry was photographed accessorising his After Party look with a friendship bracelet associated with the fanmade bracelets swapped at Taylor’s Eras tour concerts.
His bracelet had two heart beads with the name 'SABRINA' threaded between them with alphabet beads.
3 March 2024: Barry was seen at Sabrina’s performance in Singapore.
Barry was seen in the crowds of Taylor’s Eras Tour concert performance in Singapore during Sabrina’s opening act.
The footage of the actor as he watched Sabrina perform sent fans into a frenzy because the man looked smitten.
Barry smiled at the blonde bombshell with what can only be described as googly eyes pasted on his face.

16 February 2024: Barry started publicly commenting on Sabrina’s Instagram posts.
At the beginning of February, Sabrina and Taylor were touring Down Under in Australia. Unfortunately due to a wild weather event, Sabrina’s opening act got cancelled.
However, to make it up to her, Taylor brought Sabrina on later in the show to sing a cover of ‘White Horse’ together.
Sabrina later posted a video of the two of them singing on Instagram, captioning the post, “'Nine-year-old Sabrina singing white horse would never see this sh** coming!”
Once again, it was what Barry wrote underneath that excited fans. He simply left a single emoji in her comment section; a small blonde-haired queen emoji.
12 February 2024: Barry and Sabrina go on a pre-Valentine date.
Right before Valentine's Day, the couple were seen at a celebrity dining hot spot, Delilah. The pair dined before continuing their night at a cocktail lounge called Ysabel in Los Angeles.
10 - 11 February 2024: Barry sleeps over at Sabrina’s house.
It was in the early weeks of February that things kicked up a notch between Barry and Sabrina.
On Saturday the 10th the pair were photographed leaving the Los Angeles Hotel Bel-Air whilst they headed to their car and were seen driving to Sabrina’s LA home.
Then on the 11th morning, Barry was once again papped leaving Sabrina’s house in the Hollywood Hills.
4 February 2024: They make their first public appearance together.
Sabrina and Barry were photographed together at W Magazine’s Grammys After Party.
The pair were seen together throughout the night and were papped with champagne in their hands and even kicked on later in the evening at Bar Marmont in LA.
However, earlier in the night, Sabrina had chosen to walk the red carpet solo.
13 January 2024: They go on an artsy date.
These were the early days and people didn’t know who to look out for together, so it’s any wonder that the pair were spotted on a low-key date with one another at an art gallery in Los Angeles.
The couple went out to Luna Luna, an art-centric theme park, according to People.
"It definitely seemed like a date,” someone told the magazine, revealing they saw the two had “shared a little kiss.”
2 December 2023: They’re seen together for the first time.
In December of 2023, Barry and Sabrina were papped out to dinner for the first time in L.A.’s Brentwood.
28 September, 2023: Barry Keoghan and Sabrina Carpenter meet.
Although not confirmed, it’s thought that the Givenchy Spring/Summer runway show during Paris Fashion Week is where Barry and Sabrina may have initially met.
Whilst they were not seen together, the pair were photographed separately at the event and it appeared to be one of the few places their paths would have crossed before their dates.
