Sabrina Carpenter addresses Barry Keoghan’s split and cheating rumors in emotional interview

Sabrina Carpenter opened up about her recent breakup with actor Barry Keoghan during her first TV interview since their split. Carpenter spoke candidly, addressing both the end of the relationship and the swirling cheating rumors that have surrounded her.

During the Dec. 13 episode, Carpenter appeared composed but visibly emotional, giving her side of the story for the first time publicly. While refraining from revealing specific details of their split, the singer and actress dismissed allegations of infidelity as “hurtful” and “completely false.” Carpenter added that the speculation made an already difficult breakup even more difficult to navigate.

“It is challenging when personal problems become public fodder. There are two people in a relationship and only they really understand what was going on,” Carpenter said during the interview.

Carpenter and Keoghan, whose relationship had been under media scrutiny, reportedly called it quits last month. While neither party initially commented on the breakup, social media platforms were filled with speculation about the couple’s problems, leading to rumors of infidelity.

Sources close to Carpenter claimed that she is focusing on healing and maintaining a busy professional schedule. Currently working on her new music and preparing for upcoming acting roles, Carpenter told the audience that channeling her emotions into creative outlets has been therapeutic.

“I want to focus on my art and my fans, who have always been my biggest support system,” she said.
