We urgently need to discuss the reigning royal couple of Hollywood: Barry Keoghan and Sabrina Carpenter. They may be 4’1″ and 3’2″, respectively, but they’re becoming exceedingly powerful forces in pop culture — and they’re also my new favorite love story. The bath water-drinking Saltburn star and the Disney actress-turned bop-maker have been dating for about five months now, and their romantic journey has been quite eventful. We’ve seen Barry giggling and kicking his feet at the sight of Sabrina, supporting her at the Eras Tour and Coachella, and wearing a Sabrina friendship bracelet everywhere he goes. Crying. That “me espresso” really has our Irishman feeling lovesick.
It seems like things are getting pretty serious, considering Sabrina and Barry recently posed on the red carpet together at the Met Gala of all places. (Sabrina was working late that night cause she’s a singer.) As Sabrina and Barry fall more in love, it’s crucial that we document all their relationship developments. I’ve been taking notes on the latest quirky It Couple: Here’s an extensive timeline of Sabrina and Barry’s romance.
Sabrina Carpenter and Barry Keoghan’s Relationship Timeline
September 2023 – They meet for the first time at Givenchy’s spring/summer 2024 show
This match made in heaven reportedly first laid eyes on each other at the Givenchy spring/summer 2024 show. Sparks flew, history was made.
December 2023 – They’re spotted having a romantic dinner
The Daily Mail came through with photos of Sabrina and Barry enjoying a dinner date in Brentwood, Los Angeles.
February 4, 2024 – They attend the W party together and we get the first cute couple photo

I shan’t ever forget their first public appearance together, which occurred at W’s Grammys after party. Sabrina and Barry weren’t quite ready to walk the carpet together that blessed day, but they were seen looking coupley at the event, and W was kind enough to share a photo of them playfully hiding their faces — Barry with his hand and Sabrina with a giant drink.
February 22, 2024 – Sabrina has a hilarious response when asked about Barry
When Sabrina appeared on the Smallzy’s Surgery show, host Kent Small cheekily asked her if she’d seen Saltburn. “You know, I have,” she said. He asked the singer if she “loved” it, and she came back with: “Oh, I loved it. Such a good movie… Anyways, I gotta go to the bathroom.” I think think the pop princess just admired the writing and cinematography.
March 2 & 4, 2024 – Barry pulls up to the Eras Tour
@lilosilvaras WAHHHH!!😭😭💖💖 #sabrinacarpenter #barrykeoghan #erastoursg #cat9 #taylorswifterastour #erastoursingapore @Sabrina Carpenter
Barry pulled a Travis Kelce (and Matt Healy) and showed up to the Eras Tour to be a supportive BF. There’s footage of him vibing to Sabrina’s set and her running into his arms after getting off stage. Sigh. Not sure why my movie star boyfriend isn’t showing up to my world tour.
April 12, 2024 – Sabrina sings a special Saltburn “Nonsense” outro at Coachella
@kiaraupshur_ PLEASE THE BATH WATER REFERENCE #nonsense #nonsenseoutro #coachella #sabrinacarpenter
My girlie made it “Nonsense”-official at Coachella. She sang: “Man his knees so weak, he had to spread mine. He’s drinkin’ my bath water like it’s red wine.” Yes, bath water as in the Saltburn kind. Everyone shrieked. WHAT I would’ve given to be in the desert that day.
May 6, 2024 – They have date night at the Met Gala
The budding pop culture icons made their red carpet debut at the Met Gala!! Doesn’t get more official than that. Sabrina wore a gorge black and light blue Cinderella-esque dress, and Barry stunned in a Burberry velvet jacket and waistcoat. #Sabarry forever.
