Saltburn star Barry Keoghan appears to have confirmed his split from girlfriend Alyson Kierans, with whom he shares a 15 month old son. The 31 year old Irish actor is reported to have split from Alyson in the summer of 2023, a year after they welcomed their son, Brando. In an interview with GQ magazine, Barry addressed reports of his split with Alyson, as he said: "She's done a great job, and she's an incredible mother," however, he didn't go into any more detail.
He also spoke about his experience of parenting his young son, saying: "I can’t get the little boy off my mind. It’s beautiful. Y’know, it’s crazy, but when he looks at you, you feel like the most important person in the world.
"That’s the effect he has on me. He smiles at you and you’re like, 'Wow, you're smiling at me like that? I don't deserve that, but anyways, thanks.'" When reports of a split between Barry and Alyson first emerged, there were whispers that it was down to late-night partying. A source told The Sun: "They've grown apart over recent months and things have finally come to a head.
As far as she's concerned, it's over." Barry and Alyson are first thought to have met in a bar in London in 2021, when sparks instantly flew. Later that year, in October, they made their red carpet debut together, looking very much in love, before they announced Alyson's pregnancy in June 2022, and welcomed their son just two months later. Following their split in 2023, Barry has been linked with singer Sabrina Carpenter after they were spotted at dinner together in Los Angeles.
