Barry Keoghan has stepped away from Instagram following his recent breakup with Sabrina Carpenter. In a heartfelt message, he addressed his departure on X (formerly Twitter) just days after reports confirmed their split.
Keoghan, 32, expressed his feelings, stating that he could only endure so much negativity. He mentioned how harmful comments about him, his family, and his parenting had been circulating online. “I have to respond now because it’s getting to a place where too many lines are being crossed,” he explained, announcing that he decided to deactivate his account to refocus on his family and his work.
He stated that the hateful messages he received were not only hurtful but also entirely untrue, highlighting issues about his character and appearance. The actor also revealed that his family has faced intimidation and harassment, saying, “That’s crossing a line.”
In his message, Keoghan defended his role as a parent to his two-year-old son, Brando, whom he shares with his ex, Alyson Sandro. He emphasized his commitment to being a good father, aiming to be a role model for his son as he grows up. “I want him to be able to look up to his daddy and know I will have his back no matter what,” he declared.
Shortly after their breakup, sources reported that Keoghan is doing well and focusing on personal growth. Those close to him shared that he is in a strong and happy place, reminding us that he remains resilient amidst the challenges he’s faced.
Keoghan’s relationship with Carpenter, 25, first attracted attention when they were seen together last year. They shared a strong bond, with Keoghan even appearing in Carpenter’s music video. Despite the rumors surrounding their breakup, sources have made it clear that infidelity was not a factor, asserting that Keoghan was always faithful.
As both stars navigate their lives moving forward, Keoghan continues to work on various projects, including Netflix’s “The Immortal Man,” while Carpenter is preparing for the release of her new holiday film. Their shared journey, filled with ups and downs, reflects the complexities of personal and public life in the spotlight.
