"I can only sit and take so much"
Barry Keoghan has released statement following allegations that he cheated on Sabrina Carpenter.
The pair, who’d been dating for the last year, were reported to have gone their separate ways last week, and almost immediately the internet was flooded with rumours that Barry had cheated on Sabrina.
Online sleuths were confident that Barry had been unfaithful to Sabrina with TikTok star Breckie Hill, and thus began an onslaught of abuse towards the Dublin actor.
Usually one to sit back and ignore it, Barry deactivated his Instagram and took to X (formerly Twitter) to make a statement.
“I can only sit and take so much,” he wrote, “My name has been dragged across the internet in ways I usually don't respond to. I have to respond now because it's getting to a place where there are too many lines being crossed.”
“I deactivated my account because I can no longer let this stuff distract from my family and my work. The messages I have received no person should ever have to read them.”
“Absolute lies, hatred, disgusting commentary about my appearance, character, how I am as a parent and every other inhumane thing you can imagine."
Please be respectful

He continued: “Dragging my character and everything I worked extremely hard for and stand for. Talking about how I was a heroine baby and how I grew up and dragging my dear mother into it also. Knocking on my grannies door. Sitting outside my baby boys house intimidating them. That's crossing a line."
"Each and every day I work harder to push myself on every level to be the healthiest and strongest person for that boy. I want to provide opportunities for him to learn, fail and grow. I want him to be able to look up to his daddy, to have full trust in me and know I will have his back no matter what."
The Summerhill native concluded by saying, “I need you to remember he has to read ALL of this about his father when he is older. Please be respectful to all. Thank u x".
We hope to see you back on Instagram soon again Barry!
