Barry Keoghan defends his parenting amidst online trolls, and reveals all about his infamous 'Saltburn' scene!
Barry Keoghan, the talented Irish actor known for his captivating performances in films like "Saltburn" and "The Banshees of Inisherin," is currently facing a whirlwind of criticism from online trolls concerning his parenting choices. On a recent episode of The Louis Theroux Podcast, Keoghan vehemently rebutted these claims, expressing his disgust at being labelled a 'deadbeat dad.' With a passionate plea for respect, he denounced the hurtful comments surrounding his relationship with his two-year-old son, Brando, who he shares with ex-partner Alyson. According to Keoghan, these trolls are weaponising his parenting choices, leading him to declare that the negativity online makes him ‘furious.’
Keoghan’s childhood was far from easy, which has undoubtedly shaped his perspective on parenting. He revealed how the complications in his upbringing motivated him to ensure a better future for Brando. He feels a deep commitment to keep his son shielded from the harshness of online discourse, opting to maintain a level of privacy in their lives, which has unfortunately opened the door to judgement from misinformed individuals on the internet.
Adding to the whirlwind of his publicity, Keoghan recently addressed the infamous nude scene in "Saltburn," where he hilariously confirmed that any sculpted silhouettes on screen were indeed the real deal. No prosthetics were used! As a nod to his ongoing fight against online negativity, he assured fans that he was just as nature intended, indicating he has embraced his body, flaws included, and giving social media a mighty middle finger in the process. This candidness demonstrates Keoghan's confidence in his work and personal life.
In case the emails from online trolls have overshadowed your knowledge of this captivating star, here’s a fun fact: Barry was born and raised in Dublin and has enjoyed a rapid ascent in Hollywood, making waves since his breakout role in "The Killing of a Sacred Deer." Plus, did you know he is a passionate advocate for mental health? Having faced many battles himself, Keoghan's open discussions on personal topics like parenting and body image remind us why we admire him. So, the next time you're tempted to troll, remember: behind the screen is a dad striving to do his best for his son!
