Man of the moment Barry Keoghan, 31, of Saltburn and Top Boy fame, and unstoppable sensation Sabrina Carpenter, 24, are the latest unexpected Hollywood pairing, a coupling which many fans had the same reaction to as finding out about Kylie Jenner and Timothée Chalamet – until they realised it makes so much sense, but are they really dating?
Sabrina, who opened for Taylor Swift's Eras Tour, and Barry were first spotted together in December, following a reportedly ‘romantic’ dinner in Los Angeles. Ahead of the Golden Globes, it was rumoured they’d make their ‘red carpet debut’ as a couple… but they didn’t.
Since then the pair have been photographed on number dates together across LA, as well as at a Grammys after party and in March at an Oscars after party – here's the latest on their blossoming relationship; from when Sabrina and Barry first met, to their latest joint appearances.

Are Barry Keoghan and Sabrina Carpenter dating?
Barry and Sabrina certainly look like they're dating, especially after the first proper photo of them together emerged. At W Magazine's Grammys after party on 5th February the couple were spotted 'cosying up' to each other and were even pictured looking pretty relaxed sat next to each other.
More recently, they were pictured again at Vanity Fair's Oscars after party, where Barry showed off a friendship bracelet with Sabrina's name on it. They also took a sneaky selfie on the red carpet after being photographed separately. However, once in side the party they posed with their hands over their faces for a cheeky photo together.
Despite all the pictures they're yet to confirm themselves that they're in a relationship which sources claim began at the end of 2023. In January Barry and Sabrina were pictured together at a museum, taking in some of the interactive features of an outdoor exhibition.
They were first linked in December when they were pictured grabbing dinner in LA and it was claimed just before the Golden Globes that the red carpet event would be where they make their debut as a couple after the Saltburn star invited the pop star as his plus one. Barry even gave the mother of his child Alyson Kierans a heads up about their planned relationship reveal, according to this article.
How did Sabrina Carpenter and Barry Keoghan meet?
Because the pair haven’t gone public with their relationship, it’s difficult to say for certain when exactly Sabrina and Barry first began dating.
However whilst a majority of media outlets are reporting that the pair most likely met on the 28th of September 2023 at the Givenchy Spring/Summer 2024 runway show during Paris Fashion Week because they were both in attendance, they could have met slightly earlier that.
Just one week prior to the Givenchy runway show, Sabrina was photographed attending an early screening of Saltburn. However, it’s once again unclear whether the pair actually met at that event or whether they were both just in attendance.
Regardless, all signs point to Sabrina and Barry meeting in and around September 2023.

What have Sabrina Carpenter and Barry Keoghan said about their relationship?
Neither Sabrina not Barry have publicly said anything about each other to the press. The pair have only been papped dining and dating one another in LA and the public have been relying on tabloid insiders to provide information about the couple.
According to this tabloid, Barry is moving to LA for both his career and to spend more time developing his relationship with Sabrina, especially taking into account both their heavy schedules at the moment.
One thing’s for sure, this new 'it' couple’s definitely living rent free in all our minds.
