Barry Keoghan has repeatedly proven he is a great actor with immense talent. However, this is not the only topic being discussed in the media.

Barry Keoghan candidly about the challenging role of being a father
It is no secret that Barry Keoghan does not see his son as often as he used to. This is because his ex-partner lives in Ireland and is raising the child there. The actor is based in the United States daily, and he is developing his career. However, this does not stop him from visiting his child at the family home. In an interview with journalists, Barry Keoghan admitted that he has no regular relationship with his son. This is due to his relationship with his father, which influenced him.
- I'll just say this — I didn't have a father figure growing up, so even my relationship with my son isn't quite of the normal father-son relationship because I don't have that figure to draw experience from and to base it on. Love, you don't need anything to draw from, love is pure, and so I'm not on about that, but I'm on about little stuff like teaching your son this or teaching your daughter that - said Barry Keoghan in an interview with the media.
