Initially, he explained that the sole motive behind deactivating his Instagram was to avoid distractions “from his job and family.” Furthermore, he brought up the issue of receiving harmful comments, which he doesn’t wish upon anyone. “Unadulterated lies, hatred, repulsive commentary about my appearance, personality, parenting abilities, and every other inhumane criticism you can conceive. Attacking my character and everything I have worked tirelessly for and believe in,” was his further elaboration.
Keoghan shared that each day he strives to put in maximum effort to provide a superior life for his son and be someone he can admire. Additionally, the actor from Eternals brought up some disturbing events where it appeared that members of his family were threatened, causing worry over their security. He disclosed that strangers knocked on his grandmother’s door and also intimidated his child by hanging out near his house.
In the message, he asks everyone to treat each other’s personal matters with kindness and understanding, considering recent events such as the speculation surrounding Keoghan and Carpenter’s relationship and the unfounded accusations of infidelity against Keoghan. As reported by People, they have chosen to pause their relationship in order to concentrate on their individual careers. These rumors have unfortunately been accompanied by malicious comments, which he has refuted.
