Sabrina Carpenter has certified herself as a pop legend. The singer, 25, is currently on her Short N’ Sweet world tour. Carpenter has had a legendary year, from having the biggest song of her career with Espresso to being immortalized in Fortnite. Is there anything the girl can’t do?

Also, a big part of Carpenter’s public persona has been her music. With her recent album, she shifted towards more provocative lyrics in Juno and Bed Chem. Fans speculated that the songs were about Carpenter’s beau, Irish actor Barry Keoghan.

Keoghan and Carpenter’s year-long relationship was heavily covered in the media. He starred in her music video for the single Please Please Please.

As a result of her rise to fame, people have become interested in the Espresso singer’s dating life. From past to present, here is her dating history.

Before she was a megastar, Carpenter was linked to Good Luck Charlie actor Bradley Steven Perry. Around the same time, Carpenter was starring on the Disney Channel sitcom Girl Meets World. Subsequently, since the two were Disney stars, they dated as teenagers from 2014 to 2015.

After a year, Perry and Carpenter ended their relationship. However, Carpenter dished on how Perry asked her out before their teen romance ended. She said, “It was a really unique way to ask someone out. [It was] like the pirate movies, like, they do the little bottles and they put notes in them and send them across the ocean, like one of those, and [he] put a note inside. It was cute.”

Griffin Gluck – 2020-?

Next, Carpenter was linked to her Tall Girl co-star, actor Griffin Gluck. They met while filming the movie in 2019. However, Carpenter and Gluck were not rumored to be dating until February 2020. In conclusion, Carpenter and Gluck had a low-key romance. Unusual for the superstar!

Joshua Bassett – 2020-?

Buckle your seatbelts, because here is where it gets messy. In the summer of 2020, Bassett and Carpenter sparked dating rumors when they were seen at a Black Lives Matter protest. Previously, Bassett was linked to his High School Musical: The Musical co-star Olivia Rodrigo earlier in the year.

As a result of her breakup with Bassett, Rodrigo released her hit song Driver’s License in January 2021. The song hints at an ex moving on with a “blonde girl”, rumored to be Carpenter.

Regardless of what Rodrigo said, their romance was kept under wraps. In 2022, Carpenter released a song called Because I Liked A Boy, which is believed to reference the Rodrigo and Bassett love triangle.

Dylan O’Brien – 2022

Next, Carpenter was linked to Teen Wolf star Dylan O’Brien. Although their romance was only rumored. They were spotted out in New York together in September 2022.

Nothing seemed to come much of the romance, but drama. Before Carpenter, O’Brien was linked to another singer, Gracie Abrams, in April 2022.

At the time they were linked, Carpenter and O’Brien were allegedly spotted kissing. When Abrams released That’s So True in 2024, people speculated she was referencing her relationship with O’Brien and his moving on with Carpenter. Yikes.

No, none of the three confirmed the rumors.

Shawn Mendes – 2023

Moving into 2023, Carpenter was linked to singer Shawn Mendes. Again, LA was a dating hotspot, as in February 2023, they were spotted together. In March, the two stepped out again for Miley Cyrus’ album release party.

Brutally, Mendes denied the two were dating, although fans still thought they had a thing. Soon after releasing her album, fans were convinced that Mendes and Carpenter had a thing.

Not long after the album released, people were decoding Carpenter’s song Coicidence, believed to be about Mendes going back to his ex-girlfriend Camila Cabello. Cabello and Mendes dated from July 2019 to November 2021 and reunited briefly at Coachella in April 2023. How awkward.

David Dobrik – 2023

A few months after her Mendes fling, Carpenter rebounded with YouTube star David Dobrik, at least according to rumors. In the summer of 2023, reports said that Dobrik and Carpenter partied after her performance at Lollapalooza Festival.

Eventually, Carpenter denied the rumors.

Barry Keoghan, Sabrina Carpenter, her most public relationship – 2023-2024

Oh, Barrybrina, how we miss you! Finally, we are into the good stuff. Keoghan and Carpenter were first linked in December 2023 after they were seen having dinner together in LA. After a few months of speculation, they made their red carpet debut at the Vanity Fair Oscars afterparty.

For once, Carpenter wasn’t shy about her relationship, and she and the actor attended the 2024 Met Gala together.

Alas, it wasn’t meant to be, as in December 2024, an insider ‘close’ to the couple said they decided to take a break. Rumors swirled of Keoghan cheating, which he denied, but the two have been done for months now.
