Barry Keoghan and Sabrina Carpenter’s relationship has been flooding our feeds, but there’s one person who appears to be sick of their whole “Please Please Please” music video PR move: his ex, and mother of his child.
Alyson Kierans dated the Saltburn actor from 2021 to 2023 and gave birth to their son Brando in August 2022. Over the past few months, Barry has accompanied Sabrina to high-profile events like the Met Gala and the Vanity Fair Oscar Party, not to mention watching her performances like a groupie. Did he forget he has an infant son?
His ex has been spotted liking some pretty shady Instagram comments about Barry, namely about how she’s now raising her son solo and that he fumbled the bag. Spicy.

TikToker Kerusso (@thoughtswgracie2.0) summed it up, saying: “His ex posted this on Instagram and then liked this comment saying, ‘Barry truly missed out on this one’. That is such a dig, because you know he’s playing pop star boyfriend right now.”
“When they have a family, and have a child, and every time you see them they’re out with their new significant other… you don’t see him at all with his child. He’s at Sabrina’s everything. What’s that quote? ‘A mother is a mother for life, but a father is a father until the next wife’,” she said.
“I have zero respect for people who don’t take care of their children and move on… which Barry is doing with Sabrina Carpenter.”
Alyson has since limited her Instagram comments and to be fair, she has liked every single comment on her reel. But I highly doubt you’d like shady comments like “amazing and inspiring mama doing it all herself” and “more appreciation for mothers raising their kids practically by themselves” without knowing you won’t cause a little bit of a ~scandal~ in the public eye.
like he is SEEN every week and it’s never in the same country as his child

Like I just don’t know if I’m buying into the Barry Keoghan hype like ok great he’s Irish but he’s also just left his baby mama and his child for a 24 year old Disney popstar and I just don’t feel like it’s gonna end well for anyone

TikTokers were firmly on Alyson’s side, with one saying: “I like Barry and Sabrina together, but I hate him for following her around like a little puppy while he’s a grown-ass adult and parent.”
“And this is why I just can’t get behind Barry and Sabrina. They’re out living life ~good~ and then there’s his ex who [is] now a single mum doing it all alone,” another wrote.
“Barry Keoghan they could never make me like you,” a third chimed in.
“Him not following the mother of his child just for optics is so wild,” another pointed out.

Did Barry Keoghan cheat on Alyson Kierans with Sabrina Carpenter?
The timeline is a little muddy, but it appears that Barry called it off with Alyson in July 2023. A source told The Sun that the pair couldn’t agree on Barry’s partying ways, considering they had a young son.
“They’ve grown apart over recent months and things have finally come to a head. His partying caused arguments. Alyson also suspects he has got close to someone else and is adamant there is no going back,” the insider source spilled.
Sabrina was seen watching an advanced screening of Saltburn on September 20, 2023 in New York City. The pair were seen attending Givenchy’s Spring/Summer 2024 show during Paris Fashion Week on September 28, 2023. They weren’t photographed together, but rumour has it this is where the couple first met.
Their first date supposedly took place on December 4, 2023, after the pair were seen having a “romantic dinner” by Daily Mail. Fast forward to today, and they’ve hard launched their relationship in Sabrina’s “Please Please Please” music video.
At this stage, Barry and Alyson haven’t addressed the messy situation involving their son directly. Fingers crossed we get some tea in Sab’s songs when she releases Short ‘n’ Sweet on August 23, 2024.
