Sabrina Carpenter refused to let a crowded concert calendar stop her from having a great night in Paris. After her Short n’ Sweet Tour stop at the Accor Arena on Monday night, the 25-year-old singer was seen hanging out with a mystery male. Before dining late at Ferdi restaurant, the couple began their evening at a jazz bar in the Marais area about midnight. Later on, they were seen driving back Sabrina’s hotel together.
The sighting follows Sabrina’s subdued but obvious swipe at her ex-boyfriend, Barry Keoghan, during her concert in Dublin, Ireland, just a few days ago. Before starting Please, Please, Sabrina told the audience, “Dublin, it’s so nice to be here. This song is about their romance. You all sound and look rather fantastic. But my goodness; these Irish lads work hard.
Keoghan, 32, and Carpenter were together for almost a year before word of their split leaked in December 2024; rumors that Keoghan had been disloyal abound. Keoghan turned off his Instagram following the split, blaming “lies, hatred, and disgusting commentary” he had come across. Dealing with the criticism, he said, “I can only sit and absorb so much. My name has being hauled across the internet in ways I typically ignore. But too many lines are now crossed.
Carpenter, meantime, has been concentrating on her European tour following a show-stopping performance at the BRIT Awards. Her set at the awards presentation created waves, especially when she dropped down on her knees in front of a “King’s Guard”—a scene so audacious ITV had to cut the telecast.
Keoghan is navigating public criticism and a focus on parenting, while Carpenter is creating headlines both on and off the stage—through her performances or her wild Parisian night out.
