Barry Keoghan turned heads at the 2025 Met Gala with a bold, Beatles-inspired look — all while risking a run-in with ex-girlfriend Sabrina Carpenter.
Arriving solo at the Metropolitan Museum of Art, the Saltburn star embraced the gala’s “Tailored for You” theme with a custom Valentino military-style ensemble. The outfit, a nod to Ringo Starr’s iconic Sgt. Pepper’s era, featured dark tones and floral embroidery — a sharp contrast to The Beatles’ famously vivid palette.
The daring fashion statement wasn’t the only headline Barry generated.
Just a year ago, he and Sabrina Carpenter made their red carpet debut at this same event. Their brief relationship, which began in early 2024, ended months later amid swirling rumors and a cryptic social media exit by Barry. Fans speculated infidelity, though both stars stayed largely silent following the breakup.
Sabrina, fresh off her chart-topping hit Espresso, also walked the Met carpet — separately and without fanfare. The two avoided a public reunion but couldn’t dodge media attention. Their presence at the same high-profile event has reignited fan speculation about where they now stand.
Barry’s appearance comes as anticipation builds for his role as Ringo Starr in the upcoming The Beatles biopics — a fitting time for a fashion tribute. Though the atmosphere on the carpet remained calm, the evening served as a stylish — and possibly awkward — full circle moment for the former couple.
