• Sabrina Carpenter seemed to confirm her relationship with Barry Keoghan in her latest music video.

• Fans have speculated for months that the pair are dating after multiple red-carpet appearances together.

• Here's a timeline of their relationship.

Sabrina Carpenter seemed to take on the rumors that she is dating Barry Keoghan, featuring him in her latest music video.

On Friday, Carpenter released "Please Please Please," a single from her upcoming album "Short n' Sweet."

In the song's video, Carpenter falls for a convict, played by Keoghan, who keeps committing crimes and getting arrested.

Though the pair have been rumored to be dating for months, it is the first time Carpenter publicly nodded at a relationship.

Representatives for Keoghan and Carpenter did not immediately respond to a comment request from Business Insider.

In 2024, both Carpenter and Keoghan had an abrupt rise in popularity.

Keoghan's leading role in 2023's "Saltburn" brought him to a new level of fame. Carpenter's star has risen on the back of slots at Taylor Swift's Eras Tour and Coachella, plus her hit summer song "Espresso."

Here's what to know about the pair.

September 2023: The likely first meeting, at a fashion show.

In September 2023, Keoghan and Carpenter attended a fashion show hosted by Givenchy during Paris Fashion Week.

E! News and DailyMail.com previously reported that this is when the rumored couple first met.

December 2023: A report of a date.

On December 3, the DailyMail.com reported that Keoghan and Carpenter went on a dinner date in Los Angeles, sparking rumors.

Fans were confused by this news since Keoghan had yet to confirm whether he had split from longtime girlfriend Alyson Kierans. The pair have a son, Brando, but there were reports that the couple had split in July 2023.

In January 2024, Keoghan mentioned Kierans in a cover story for GQ magazine in a way that suggested they were more co-parents than partners.

"She's done a great job, and she's an incredible mother," Keoghan said.

January 2024: Keoghan goes on another date with Carpenter.

People reported, citing unnamed sources, that Keoghan and Carpenter went on a date to Luna Luna, an art exhibit in LA, on January 15.

A witness told People that the pair kissed during the date. Neither addressed the dating rumor.

February 2024: Keoghan and Carpenter spend time together during a Grammys afterparty.

A month later, Carpenter and Keoghan seemed to have been hanging out at afterparties.

The pair attended W Magazine's Grammys afterparty separately, but W reported that they hung out together inside.

"Meanwhile, Barry Keoghan chatted with friends as Sabrina Carpenter perched on his lap," a W staff member wrote.

The magazine also shared a picture of the pair on Instagram.

Later that month, People reported that Carpenter and Keoghan went on two more dates in LA.

March 2024: Keoghan and Carpenter become more open about dating but do not confirm rumors.

In March, Carpenter performed her last few opening-act shows for Taylor Swift's Eras Tour.

During one of Carpenter's performances in Singapore, fans noticed Keoghan in the crowd and shared videos of him.

Then, several outlets reported on March 10 that Keoghan wore a friendship bracelet with Carpenter's name on it to the Oscars.

Later in March Carpenter refused to comment on the dating rumors during an interview with Cosmopolitan, dodging a question about her dating life.

"The relationships that I actually want to put my energy into have to be so interesting or invigorating because they take me away from the other things I love," Carpenter said. "So yeah, it's fun and it's messy. I think I'm still just at this place where I'm really enjoying the newness of all of it."

April 2024: Carpenter makes a reference to "Saltburn" at Coachella.

In April, Carpenter performed on both weekends at the 2024 Coachella music festival.

During the first weekend, Keoghan was in the crowd, and fans shared multiple videos of him recording Carpenter or dancing to her songs.

According to a video shared on social media, Carpenter seemed to wave toward Keoghan in the crowd during her performance.

Later in the day, Keoghan and Carpenter were spotted hanging out with Swift and her boyfriend Travis Kelce.

During the second weekend of Coachella, Carpenter made a reference to Keoghan's hit film "Saltburn" during her performance.

During the outro for Carpenter's song "Nonsense" from her 2022 album "Emails I Can't Send," Carpenter normally ad-libs a funny, risque verse.

This time she sang: "Made his knees so weak he had to spread mine / He's drinking my bath water like it's red wine / Coachella , see you back here when I headline."

The "drinking my bath water" line seemed like a reference to the scandalous scene in "Saltburn," where Keoghan's character drinks bathwater after it has been used by the man he is obsessed with.

May 2024: Carpenter and Keoghan finally make their red carpet debut.

On May 6, Keoghan and Carpenter arrived together at the 2024 Met Gala, making their first joint appearance on a red carpet.

After the event, Vogue published a video of the pair getting ready for the gala. In the clip, Carpenter is happy to see Keoghan when he walks in, and Keoghan appears to lean in for a kiss.

May 2024: Keoghan threw a birthday party for Carpenter for her 25th.

A few days later, Carpenter celebrated her 25th birthday.

People reported, citing an unnamed source, that Keoghan threw her a party on May 11 in Brooklyn.

The party featured a cake with Leonardo DiCaprio's face and the caption: "Nooo don't turn 25 [you're] so sexy aha." This refers to the internet joke that DiCaprio is only attracted to women under 25.

Later in the month, Carpenter traveled to the UK for the BBC Radio 1 Weekend music festival.

Fans think they saw Keoghan backstage in a video of Carpenter's performance — pointing to a blurry figure in purple that resembles him.

June 2024: Keoghan appears in the video for Carpenter's latest single.

Carpenter seemed to take on the dating rumors in the best way possible — casting Keoghan as her criminal boyfriend in her latest music video.

In the video for "Please Please Please," which received more than 3 million views in its first 14 hours, Keoghan plays a convict who keeps getting locked up for violent crimes.

In the first verse, Carpenter seems to tease Keoghan's identity, signing: "I heard that you're an actor, so act like a stand-up guy."

In the second verse, Carpenter appears to reference her initial attempt to keep her relationship with Keoghan private.

"And we could live so happily, if no-one knows that you're with me — I'm just kidding, but really," she sings.

In the video, Carpenter's character falls for him at first sight and dates him after he is out of prison. However, their relationship goes left field because he keeps bringing her along whenever he commits a crime.

At the end of the video, Carpenter handcuffs Keoghan and puts tape around his mouth before kissing him.
