SABRINA CARPENTER begged her man not to break her heart on hit Please Please Please.
But while her track soared to the top of the charts, I can reveal that actor Barry Keoghan is no longer No1 for Sabrina Carpenter.
I have been told that the American singer dumped the Irish actor around three weeks ago because his party lifestyle was getting in the way of their relationship.
Dublin-born Barry and Sabrina, who has opened for Taylor Swift on her Eras Tour, were first linked in December last year when they were spotted having dinner together in Los Angeles.
A source said: “Barry acts like an idiot when he is drunk and Sabrina was getting increasingly frustrated.
“He has always been a party animal and Sabrina was fed up with his antics. She is soaring 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, which sees her sing about a boyfriend damaging her reputation.
Barry stars alongside Sabrina in the music video, which depicts him as a convict behind bars.
In the song, Sabrina sings: “Please, please, please don’t bring me to tears when I just did my makeup so nice. Heartbreak is one thing, my ego’s another. I beg you, don’t embarrass me, motherf***er. Please, please, please.”
Appearing to make reference to Barry’s party lifestyle, she adds: “Whatever devil’s inside you don’t let him out tonight.

“I tell them it’s just your culture and everyone rolls their eyes. Yeah I know.”
The Sun on Sunday revealed in January that Barry had told his ex-girlfriend and mother of his child that he planned to go official with Sabrina.
Barry split from dental nurse Alyson Kierans last July after also rowing about his partying and flirting with another woman.
The couple share two-year-old son Brando.
Set a record
Last month, Sabrina set a record in the UK singles charts — becoming the first female artist to simultaneously hold the number one and number two spot for three consecutive weeks.
Sabrina hinted at the split rumours last month when she posted a TikTok captioned: “Me saying goodbye to him because I wasn’t his number one streamed artist.”
I can’t wait to see what track Sabrina drops next . . .
Representatives for Barry and Sabrina were contacted for comment.
Stormzy songs on Maya split... and the riots
STORMZY has been back in the studio this month – and has been putting his heart into new material.
I have been informed that the rapper has been recording tracks in West London and makes reference to his recent split from Love Island host Maya Jama.
A source told me: “Stormzy wrote an emotional song about his break-up with Maya and went into the studio to record it. The song goes deep into how hard it can be to find love when the relationship you thought would be the one ends.”
Maya and Stormzy announced their split in a joint statement on Instagram last month after an on-off relationship since 2014.
I have also heard that the Vossi Bop hitmaker is going to address the recent riots in his music.
The source added: “He is disgusted by what he saw and he made another song that he hopes will comfort those who were hurt.”
Curl power, Rita
RITA ORA shows off her wild side as she performs at a Disney event.
The Anywhere hitmaker wore her blonde hair in ringlets, with an assortment of rings on her fingers for the show at D23 Expo in Anaheim, California, earlier this week.
Rita performed Trust In Me from The Jungle Book at the Disney fan event and was also joined by her husband, Kiwi movie director Taika Waititi.
She wrote on Instagram: “Big shout out to Disney Parks for letting me explore my favourite place ever with my hubby – it was truly magical.”
One thing is for sure, Rita will always be our Disney princess.
ALEXANDER SKARSGARD is spending three hours a day training in the gym to get buff for his upcoming role as a dominatrix.
The actor plays the leader of a motorbike club in kinky movie, Pillion.
A source said: “It will be one of his most revealing roles yet and he needs to convince the viewers of his god-like status. He has thrown himself into his workouts.”
The film also features Queen’s Gambit actor Harry Melling.
Alex is no stranger to nudity, saying previously: “I have a relaxed relation-ship with my genitals.”

Taylor's show has ex appeal
TAYLOR Swift referenced her ex-boyfriend Joe Alwyn for the first time on her Eras tour at London's Wembley Stadium.
The US superstar returned to the capital for five additional nights on Thursday.
And the Friday night show included a hit London Boy during a surprise acoustic section.
Taylor penned the track about her blossoming romance with the Brit actor in 2019 and it mentions London neighbourhoods Highgate Brixton and Shoreditch.
Speaking on stage to 92,000 fans, she said: "The ultimate challenge is to get something I have never played on the Eras tour before, which is what I am about to do.
"This whole show has been so fantastic you have been so generous to us.
"I’ve been so excited to hang out with you guys because you guys have been so loud.
"And the whole night I have just been thinking 'God I love the English'."
Taylor, who is now in a relationship with Kansas City Chiefs player Travis Kelce, even change the lyrics to “I enjoy playing Wembley, sleep into the afternoon."
Taylor and ex Joe split in April 2023 after six years together.
She included the track So Long, London on latest album, The Tortured Poets Department, which is rumoured to be about the split.
Tayl tale
SHE was ecstatic to be supporting Taylor Swift last night, but Suki Waterhouse is desperate to work with another female star.
Speaking at the launch of her 18-track album Memoir Of A Sparklemuffin, the singer said she would love to collab with “voice of an angel” Spanish starlet Rosalia.
Suki also revealed she recorded the album in a studio in my native Devon and “stayed up for pretty much five or six days”.
Tayl tale
TAYLOR SWIFT fans can try to catch a glimpse of her while she is in London, by joining a tour dedicated to the superstar.
GetYourGuide has a You Know I Love A London Tour – Taylor Swift Experience which takes in her favourite spots, including Vauxhall pub the Black Dog and her top kebab shop, in Kentish Town.
Our sources tell us she has placed a huge kebab order for her Wembley gigs – and that she likes a chicken one with garlic sauce and a hint of chilli.
Tayl tale
TAYLOR’s dad delighted fans at Wembley Stadium, as he walked among them giving out chicken tenders.
Scott Swift made his way around the standing section, with the savoury treats piled high on a plate.
A fan shared the sweet gesture on TikTok, saying: “Thank you for the chicken, Scott handing out chicken tenders during Style somehow makes sense.”
Our hero, Scott.
Pinter best for Jane
WRITTEN almost 70 years ago, Harold Pinter’s eerie classic still manages to disturb and mystify.
Ab Fab’s Jane Horrocks, starring as batty landlady Meg, provided some much-needed comic relief amid the macabre surrealism on the drab 1950s set.
The intimate theatre added to the suffocation and intensity of the script, leaving audiences guessing right until the end.
Some of the script is difficult to swallow, especially as the characters grow more menacing as the play wears on.
Riveting and alarming in equal measure.
