The couple has been dating since late 2023 yet have kept their romance relatively low-key.
They’ve yet to make their red carpet debut but they did pose up together at the 2024 Met Gala in May.
Just last month, Sabrina discussed casting her real-life boyfriend and her onscreen love interest in her Please Please Please music video, which was released in June.
She told the hosts of CBS Sunday Morning that she trusted her ‘not-even-biased opinion’ when she decided to have him play the music video’s ‘bad boy.’
‘I, genuinely — like, a not-even-biased opinion — I was like, ‘Who’s the greatest actor that I can find for this music video?’ And he was next to me in a chair,’ she recalled.
‘And he was so excited about it,’ she said of Keoghan’s reaction.
The single, which was the second from her hit album Short n’ Sweet, is speculated to contain cheeky references to The Batman star.
When asked if the father-of-one is a fan of the record and the rest of her discography, the songstress eagerly said he liked it ‘a lot.
‘Listen, all I’m going to say is I’m incredibly blessed. Such a strong, independent lady who’s massively talented and yeah,’ Keoghan said, adding: ‘Pretty special’; the couple seen in May
‘He likes the song, which is great. He’s a fan of the song,’ the singer shared, adding that he ‘does like my music a lot, yeah.’
In August, the Don’t Smile singer gushed over her man’s talent and called him ‘one of the best actors of this generation.’
She told Variety: ‘I don’t want to sound biased, but I think he’s one of the best actors of this generation.
‘So getting to see him on the screen with my song as the soundtrack made the video better and all the more special.’
Days later, she told The Guardian that cozying up to the Saltburn star in the video was ‘one of the best experiences I’ve ever had.’
‘I’m very honored and I got to work with such a great actor,’ she told the outlet.
Sabrina explained that she is cautious about keeping her relationship private but understands that publicity with the price of fame.
‘It’s not what I signed up for, but I can’t really help when I was born,’ she said.
‘I want to be honest — I want to just write about what’s happening in my life as a 25-year-old girl,’ she added.

‘But it comes with the territory and I just have to be like…okay!’ she added.
Sabrina is currently on her fifth headlining concert tour, the Short n’ Sweet Tour, which kicked off on September 23 in Columbus, Ohio.
She is set to wrap at the Crypto.com Arena in Los Angeles on November 15 of this year.
It is not yet known if the Girl Meets World actress will take the tour overseas.
