Barry Keoghan‘s sexuality has been a concern for many people as his character, Oliver Quick, gets obsessed with another male character, Felix Catton played by Jacob Elordi, in the recently released psychological thriller movie, Saltburn. People wonder if he is gay in real life.
Well, he isn’t. There is no evidence of him being attracted to the same gender. Even though he has never given any statement regarding his sexuality, his dating history alone and the fact that he and his [former] lady partner gave birth to a baby boy in 2022 are enough to conclude that he has forever been straight.
Yes, Barry is a father. He has a son who was born in August 2022. According to Wikipedia, his baby mama is a woman named Alyson Kierans, who is a dental nurse and orthodontic therapist. They began dating in September 2021 and announced that they were expecting a child in March 2022.
While we are unsure if Barry and Alyson are still together, we are confident that they are very happy co-parenting their baby. The couple has not given any statement regarding their current relationship situation. Before his relationship with Alyson, Barry had a long-term relationship with Shona Guerin. The couple began dating in 2017 and lived together in Los Angeles before splitting in 2020.
Earlier this month, Keoghan was linked to singer Sabrina Carpenter as they were spotted on a dinner date. According to reports, the couple was having a “romantic” dinner together, although neither party has commented on the photographs as of yet.
From the above information, you now might have clarity on Barry Keoghan’s sexuality. Just because he played a queer movie does not mean he is gay in real life. Let’s not forget that he is a professional actor and is supposed to play a character according to the storyline.
