Amid swirling rumors of infidelity surrounding her recent split from actor Barry Keoghan, singer Sabrina Carpenter appeared in high spirits at the premiere of her Netflix Christmas special, "A Nonsense Christmas."
Online speculation suggests Keoghan's alleged involvement with a prominent TikTok influencer led to the sudden end of their relationship. This speculation gained traction after influencer Breckie Hill shared a video featuring a DeuxMoi post detailing the alleged affair. The gossip account claimed Keoghan was seen with the influencer at San Vincente Bungalows around the time of Carpenter's final Los Angeles tour dates, and that their interactions had been ongoing for months. The post further implied that Carpenter discovered these interactions and ended the relationship shortly before her final performances.
