Barry Keoghan is bashing all of the cyberbullying he has allegedly received since he and Sabrina Carpenter recently called it quits after one year of dating.
“I can only sit and take so much,” the “Saltburn” star, 32, began in a lengthy statement via X Saturday.
“My name has been dragged across the internet in ways that I don’t usually respond to. I have to respond now because it’s gettin [sic] to a place where there are too many lines being crossed.”
Keoghan added that some of the hateful messages he’s received “no person should have to read them.”
He explained that he deactivated his Instagram account on Friday because the vitriol had become a distraction from his family and his work.

11 The “Bring Them Down” star said what’s being said about him are “absolute lies, hatred, disgusting commentary” about his appearance, character, how he is as a parent and other “inhumane” remarks.
Keoghan gave further insight into some of the commentary, claiming he’s been called a “heroine baby” because of how he “grew up,” referencing his late mother Debbie Keoghan’s substance abuse issues.
The Irish actor opened up to GQ earlier this year about having to hop around between foster homes as a kid because of his mom’s struggles, sharing that she ultimately died from a heroine overdose.
Barry claimed via X that people have been “intimidating” his grandmother, who helped raised him, and his 2-year-old son, Brando, whom he shares with ex-girlfriend Alyson Sandro.

11 “Sitting outside my baby boys house intimidating them,” he wrote. “Thats crossing a line.”
The “Bird” star shared that he works hard every day to “push” himself “on every level to be the healthiest and strongest person” for his son.
“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,” he continued.
“I need you to [remember] he has to read ALL of this about his father when he is older. Please be respectful to all.”

11 Barry’s statement comes after the internet has run wild with rumors that he allegedly cheated on Carpenter, leading them to split.
A blind item recently submitted to the gossip account DeuxMoi alleged, “On the closing night of [Carpenter’s] biggest tour to date in LA, he was busy getting very cozy at San Vincente 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 pop star 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.”
Social media sleuths then deduced that Breckie Hill was the influencer in question because she had recently posted photos that seemingly hinted she had been dating the “Eternals” actor.

11 On Nov. 18, she posted a photo of herself while out on a mystery date and captioned a pic of a margarita, “kinda salty,” seemingly referencing Barry’s breakout movie role.
The OnlyFans model, 21, also posted a photo of a beverage called “blackberry smash” that night that appeared to be a reference to the actor’s first name.
Hill then further fueled the rumor mill by reposting videos that “confirmed” she was Barry’s alleged mistress and has since not tried to shut down the scandal or address the allegations.
She has not responded to Page Six’s multiple requests for comment.
