- Barry Keoghan and Sabrina Carpenter are on a ‘break’
- The couple were first linked in December last year
- Rumours have swirled about his infidelity with a TikToker
Barry Keoghan and Sabrina Carpenter have called it quits after nearly a year of dating – but why?
Sources close to Carpenter and Barry later confirmed the relationship speculation, revealing they had opted to “take a break.”
A rep told PEOPLE magazine, “They are both young and career-focused, so they’ve decided to take a break.”
Rumours have swirled on social media that one colossal reason was the TikTok influencer Breckie Hill. It is alleged Hill and Keoghan got a little too close while in LA. This was allegedly all happening while Carpenter was on the road with her Short’N’Sweet tour.
But who exactly is Hill?
Where is Breckie Hill from?
Hill was born in Minnesota in 2003. According to her digital footprint, she participated in cheerleading as a child and in high school. She has since moved to Los Angeles and has begun a career in content creation and influencing.
How did she get her big break on TikTok?
Her videos started gaining traction after she posted a lip sync to Doja Cat’s Get Into You (Yuh).
She has since amassed four million followers on the video-sharing app. Hill has a cool two million followers on Instagram.
What has she said about the Barry Keoghan and Sabrina Carpenter breakup?
Well, officially, nothing! No words have come out of her mouth. The speculation on social media is exactly that, but she hasn’t shied away from the spotlight around this particular story.
Hill has been sharing all sorts of articles about the pop star and the actor’s breakup all over her social media.
Hill has reposted TikToks about the situation. These were all created by other people who claimed that Hill was the other woman.
One included a print screen of a tweet saying, “UNCONFIRMED reports are circulating that Sabrina Carpenter and Barry Keoghan have broken up after Barry allegedly cheated on her.”
Hill shared another video about the situation that included a blind item.
“This A-list singer who’s having her breakout year and her foreign actor boyfriend are done for good. On the closing night of her biggest tour date in LA, he was busy getting cozy at San Vincente Bungalows with a blonde, semi-famous, LA-based influencer,” it read.
What have fans said about the Barry Keoghan situation?
Some think it’s just a ploy to get more attention. What is a social media star without a scandal to boost their profile?
One person posted, “guys breckie is a clout chaser, she will repost anything to keep herself relevant. i’m not saying that she isn’t the one he cheated with but.”
However, despite this other people have been quick to use the loaded word “homewrecker”.
“breckie hill confirming that she hooked up with barry while with sabrina isnt the win she thinks it is. It actually means ur a disgusting homewrecker!!!,” one person wrote.
Others have posted that the word is sexist and enables people to get away with blaming other people for other’s bad behaviour.
One person pointed this out, writing, “Lol I hate the ‘homewrecker’ drivel so much . How do you let a man choose to cheat on his girlfriend and ruin his own relationship and still come out the helpless victim of female deviance.”
There’ll surely be more updates to follow.
