In her hit song “Please Please Please,” Sabrina Carpenter pleaded with her lover not to break her heart.
But while her songs have soared to the top of the charts, I can reveal that actor Barry Keoghan is no longer Sabrina Carpenter's number one.

Sabrina Carpenter releases music video for “Please Please Please” featuring then-boyfriend Barry
It was heard that the American singer split with the Irish actor about three weeks ago because his party-loving lifestyle got in the way of their relationship.
Dublin-born Barry and Sabrina, who opened for Taylor Swift on her Erasu tour, first sparked rumours of a relationship when they were spotted having dinner together in Los Angeles in December last year.
A source said: “Barry would act like an idiot when he was drunk and it was getting to be increasingly frustrating for Sabrina.”
“He was always a party animal and Sabrina was tired of his antics. She's rapidly rising in the charts and is putting herself first as she gears up for her tour next month.”
Sabrina released the single “Please Please Please” in June, in which she sings about a boyfriend who ruined her reputation.
Barry co-stars with Sabrina in the music video, portraying her as a prison inmate.
In the song, Sabrina sings: “Please, please, please, don't make me cry after all this beautiful makeup.”
“Broken hearts are one thing, my self-esteem is another. Please don't embarrass me you son of a bitch. Please, please, please.”
Seemingly referencing Barry's party-loving lifestyle, she added: “Whatever demons you have inside you, don't let them out tonight.
“I tell them it's just your culture and they all roll their eyes. Yeah, I know.”
Sabrina Carpenter screams in fear as fireworks explode onstage
The Sun on Sunday reported in January that Barry was planning to make his relationship official with his ex-girlfriend and the mother of his child, Sabrina.
Barry split from dental nurse Alison Kierans in July last year after arguments over partying and cheating with other women.
The couple have a two-year-old son, Brando.
Setting a Record
Last month, Sabrina set a record on the UK singles chart, becoming the first female artist to hold the number one and number two spots simultaneously for three consecutive weeks.
Sabrina hinted at rumours of a split from Barry last month when she posted a TikTok captioned it, “I broke up with him because I wasn't his number one streaming artist.”
I can't wait to see what song Sabrina releases next.

A source told me: “Stormzy wrote and went into the studio to record an emotional song about his break-up with Maya. The song is a profound reflection on how hard it can be to find love when a relationship you thought was the one ends.”
Maya and Stormzy announced their split in a joint statement on Instagram last month after dating since 2014.
We also heard that the Vossi Bop hitmaker plans to address the recent riots in his music.
The source added: “He is disgusted by what he saw and has written a new song in the hopes of providing comfort to those who have been hurt.”

And Friday night's show featured a surprise acoustic section performing their hit “London Boy.”
Taylor wrote the song about her budding romance with the British actor in 2019 and references the London districts of Highgate, Brixton and Shoreditch.
“The ultimate challenge is to play songs that I've never performed on the Eraser tour before, and that's what I'm going to do right now,” she told the 92,000 fans onstage.
“The show overall was so amazing, everyone was so generous to us.
“I was so looking forward to spending time with you guys because you guys are so loud.
“And I spent the whole night thinking, 'Oh, I love the British.'”
Taylor, who is currently dating Kansas City Chiefs player Travis Kelce, changed the lyrics to “Playing at Wembley is fun, sleeping 'til the afternoon.”
Taylor and her ex-husband Joe split in April 2023 after six years of dating.
She includes a song called “So Long, London” on her latest album, The Tortured Poets Department, which is rumored to be about a breakup.

Although she was thrilled to support Taylor Swift last night, Suki Waterhouse is keen to perform alongside other female stars.
Speaking at the launch of his 18-track album Memoir Of A Sparklemuffin, the singer said he would love to collaborate with Rosalía, the Spanish star with the “voice of an angel.”
Suki also revealed that she recorded the album in a studio in her hometown of Devon, “staying up late for about five or six days.”

GetYourGuide is running the You Know I Love A London Tour – The Taylor Swift Experience, which takes in some of Swift's favourite spots, including the Black Dog pub in Vauxhall and her favourite kebab place in Kentish Town.
Our sources say she's ordering loads of kebabs for the Wembley show, with chicken kebabs being her favourite, with garlic sauce and a hint of chilli.

Taylor's father delighted fans at Wembley Stadium, wandering amongst them and handing out chicken tenders.
Scott Swift wandered around the stand with a plate piled high with delicious treats.
One fan shared the kind act on TikTok, commenting, “Thanks for the chicken. It kind of makes sense that Scott would hand out chicken tenders in 'Style'.”
Our hero, Scott.
Pinter is the best for Jane
Written almost 70 years ago, Harold Pinter's eerie classic still unsettles and mystifies people to this day.
Ab Fab's Jane Horrocks stars as the creepy landlady Meg, providing much-needed comic relief amid the eerie surrealism of the drab 1950s sets.

The intimate atmosphere of the theater heightened the script's oppressive and tense atmosphere, leaving the audience in suspense until the very end.
Parts of the script are hard to accept, especially as the characters become more and more frightening as the play progresses.
I find it intriguing and unsettling at the same time.
