Barry Keoghan spills the tea on his past, fatherhood challenges, and love life - all while staying fabulous!

Barry Keoghan, the Oscar-nominated star known for his roles in 'The Banshees of Inisherin' and 'Saltburn', recently opened up about his tumultuous past and the joy of fatherhood. Speaking candidly in an interview with Louis Theroux, Barry revealed how he is haunted by memories of his late mother, Debbie, who tragically died from a heroin overdose. Growing up without a father figure only added to the challenges he faced, but these experiences have shaped him into the devoted father and successful actor he is today.

Not just a man grappling with his past, Barry also touched on his life with his two-year-old son, Brando, whom he shares with ex-partner Alyson. The actor expressed his frustration towards online trolls who hurl accusations of him being a 'deadbeat dad'. In a passionate rebuttal, he firmly stated, "I’m not an absent father; people love to use my son as ammunition against me." It's clear that Barry is fiercely protective of his little one and takes these baseless claims to heart.

On top of navigating fatherhood, Barry is also finding love! Rumors have been swirling about his relationship with pop star Sabrina Carpenter, and in the interview, he shared his excitement about their connection. However, he also made it clear that his main focus remains on being the best dad he can be, amidst the tabloids and public speculation. Barry's ability to balance all these aspects of his life showcases his resilience and dedication to his family and career.

In the realm of fame, navigating personal issues can often lead to public scrutiny, but Barry Keoghan seems to be tackling it with both humor and grit. He continues to break barriers in Hollywood, proving that rising from a troubled background doesn't have to define one’s future.

Did you know that Barry became a household name after his role in 'The Killing of a Sacred Deer'? The acclaim he received for that performance set the stage for his eventual Oscar nomination. Plus, as a unique twist, Barry is also known for his affinity for street art and has been recognized for his contributions to the art scene in Dublin. Just another reason why this multi-faceted star is one to watch!
