Barry Keoghan deactivates his Instagram just hours after posting thirst trap snaps following split from Sabrina Carpenter amid cheating rumours

Barry Keoghan has deactivated his Instagram in the wake of his split from girlfriend Sabrina Carpenter.

The Saltburn star, 32, was an active user on the social media platform under the handle @keoghan92, though he notably only followed his singer ex Sabrina, 25

Only on Friday, Barry took to Instagram to share thirst trap shots of his muscular arms in in a teal green sweater vest as he posed in front of a mirror.

The Irish  star- who showed off his newly-dyed blonde hair during his first sighting since it was revealed the pair called it quits after a year of dating – also shared another photo of him wearing a full-face motorcycle helmet with the face shield up and his icy blue eyes exposed.

However, just hours later, his Instagram handle became unavailable, with the actor seemingly stepping away from social media amid the breakdown of his relationship and the subsequent cheating rumours that followed. 

It comes following claims that Saltburn star Barry was ‘very faithful and loyal’ to Sabrina according to a source who spoke with Us Weekly, amid recent rumours that he cheated with OnlyFans star Breckie Hill.

Barry was hit by the claims he cheated on the Espresso hitmaker after it was reported that the pair had split after a year of dating on Tuesday.

However, the source told Us Weekly the actor was ‘very devoted to her happiness’, but that they are ‘at different places in their lives.’ 

The insider further divulged that it’s been ‘challenging for their relationship since she started going on tour and has been gone a lot’ and that ‘their schedules were not aligning.’

‘All the time spent apart it was hard to maintain a relationship amid her career exploding.’

The source added that Sabrina was being ‘pulled in so many directions’ and simply did not have time to ‘commit to a relationship.’

After reaching a ‘huge level of stardom’ it’s reportedly been tough for the songbird to ‘focus and to be present for him in a relationship.’

The source added she ‘barely has time for herself let alone for a relationship.’

Another insider told the publication that the breakup happened within ‘the last month’ because of their busy schedules.

The fact that they weren’t able to spend more time together ‘took a toll on the relationship.’

It was noted that there’s no bad blood between the ‘cordial’ pair and their split was ‘not contentious.’

‘Both agreed it wasn’t working.’

The two have indeed been busy with their careers.

Sabrina recently completed the U.S. leg of her Short ’N’ Sweet tour, and is now gearing up for the release of her Netflix holiday special on Friday.

Meanwhile Keoghan’s career also shows no signs of slowing down.

He has roles in the forthcoming projects: Bird, Hurry Up Tomorrow, Amo Saddam and a Peaky Blinders film.

‘Barry’s very focused on his career and being a dad,’ a third source shared with Us Weekly, in reference to his 2-year-old son Brando, from his prior relationship with Alyson Sandro.

The source added that while he was filming Peaky Blinders, he was also ‘balancing being with his son during his downtime.’

A similar sentiment was shared by a source who spoke with People, telling the publication that the couple have decided to go their separate ways in a bid to focus on their respective careers.

A blind item on gossip site Deuxmoi has claimed that a breakup between a rising pop star and her ‘foreign actor boyfriend’ occurred because he’d cheated on her with a ‘semi-famous TikTok influencer’.

While the item did not name Barry or Sabrina, fans were quick to claim that the piece was about them.

Hill — who is also an OnlyFans star — has since fueled wild cheating rumors after reposting two different videos on TikTok that allege Keoghan had cheated on Carpenter with her. 

The item read: ‘It appears that 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 to date in LA, he was busy getting very cozy at San Vicente Bungalows with a blonde, semi-famous, LA based influencer (who’s particularly big on TikTok).’

‘I snooped around a bit out of curiosity and apparently he and his popstar girlfriend called it quits very suddenly less than a week before her final shows in LA after she found out he had been chatting with said influencer behind her back for months in a not-innocent-at-all way…’

The item also claimed that the influencer ‘had even gone to find [Barry] while he was filming in the UK, eager to keep him company while his girlfriend was touring in the US’.

They added: ‘He had messed up before and she had forgiven him but nothing as serious and infidelity is where she draws the line.’

Sabrina and Barry were first linked back in early December of 2023.

The couple had met just a few months earlier, in September. The Espresso singer attended a screening of Barry’s polarizing thriller Saltburn earlier in the month, which may have prepared her for their official meeting at the Givenchy runway show at Paris Fashion Week.

Sabrina and Barry’s relationship heated up to the point that he even starred with her in the music video for her single Please Please Please.

But there were hints of trouble between Sabrina and Barry when a source claimed to People in August that the couple’s relationship was ‘on and off.’

Sabrina previously had a high-profile romance with the Disney Channel actor Joshua Bassett from 2020 to 2021, and she was linked to singer Shawn Mendes early last year.
