Barry Keoghan, the Irish actor and Oscar nominee, recently made headlines after his split from long-time girlfriend Alyson Sandro. The couple had been together for two years and even welcomed their first and only son, Brando, in August of 2022. Alyson, a Scottish dentist and orthopedic therapist based in London, England, has been praised for her incredible mothering skills by Barry himself.
Unfortunately, their relationship came to an end in July 2023, with reports indicating that they had grown apart in recent months. It was suggested that Barry’s partying and possible closeness to someone else were contributing factors to the breakup. Despite the split, both Barry and Alyson are focused on co-parenting their son and doing what’s best for him.
Barry Keoghan, who rose to fame with his role in the film “The Banshees of Inisherin,” confirmed the split in an interview with GQ, emphasizing Alyson’s qualities as a mother. The couple first met in 2021 at a London bar while Barry was filming for the movie Saltburn.
Following his breakup with Alyson, Barry sparked rumors of a new relationship with singer and actress Sabrina Carpenter. By February 2024, it was confirmed that the two were indeed dating. Barry made sure to inform Alyson about his new relationship personally to avoid any hurt feelings, especially considering they still communicate for the sake of their son, Brando.
Despite the challenges faced in their personal lives, both Barry and Alyson remain focused on their respective careers and are determined to co-parent their son with love and respect. We wish them both the best in their future endeavors.
