JAKARTA - Barry Keoghan opened his voice about rumors that he was a father who was absent, especially taking care of children. This news circulated after he was seen several times attending his lover's solo concert, Sabrina Carpenter.

Keoghan had a child with his previous lover, Alyson Kierans before separating and is now said to be close to Carpenter.

"If I didn't have thick skin, I wouldn't be here," Karry Keoghan told Louis Theroux here.

"Of course, it will have an impact with me being a father when I don't have a guide. People just look at it as laziness and say 'Oh, that's not an excuse to be a absent parent," he said.

Barry Keoghan admitted that he did not need to publish every activity with his child because he was uncomfortable sharing it online.

"I'm not a absent parent, but again. People like to use my child as ammunition (to attack)", explained Keoghan.

I also feel unfair to put my child online. And because I did that, people made narratives like 'father who is absent' 'deadbeat dad' and other disgusting things I don't want to repeat. It hurts a lot," said Keoghan.

Not only that, Barry Keoghan also felt that he often received ridicule because of his appearance on social media.

It's sad to see someone commenting on the appearance especially on TikTok. People can sit and make videos like I don't like his face He looks strange He looks evil continued Barry Keoghan.

"Fortunately I have thick skin. My film airs and people judge you and separate you sometimes it's sad to see someone like that," he said.
