Sabrina Carpenter’s love life has always been a hot topic among her millions of fans around the world. People have been eager to know more about the singer and actress’s personal life.
And when it was speculated that she might be dating a fellow American singer and actor, Joshua Bassett, then people’s curiousness skyrocketed. So, are the couple really together? Plus, more on Carpenter’s dating history!
Are Sabrina Carpenter and Joshua Bassett dating?
Carpenter and Bassett were first linked together after the two were seen together at a Black Lives Matter protest in July 2020. Following that, the rumors started and it has never stopped since.
One month later, paparazzi caught the rumored couple having lunch together in Los Angeles, California — the pictures were later released by Just Jared Jr. Following that, things slowed down a bit for a while.

But it again got hyped during Halloween 2020 after they shared a TikTok video in which Bassett and Carpenter dressed as Sharkboy and Lavagirl, respectively. In January 2021, a fan apparently saw them together in Park City, Utah, and shared their pictures on Twitter — it became viral.
Later, things got a bit messy after Bassett’s alleged ex-girlfriend, Olivia Rodrigo, released her single ‘Drivers License,’ a song which many believe is targeted toward Bassett and Carpenter’s rumored relationship.

In her song, Rodrigo said, “And you’re probably with that blonde girl / Who always made me doubt / She’s so much older than me.”
But, while teasing the song months ago, the lyrics read “brunette girl” and not “blonde girl.” And, Carpenter is older than Rodrigo as well.
In the song, Carpenter sings, “You can try / To get under my, under my, under my skin / While hе’s on mine / Yeah, all on my, all on my, all on my skin.”
The love triangle has gone back and forth at each other multiple times. However, one important thing to be noted here is that Bassett’s relationship with Rodrigo hasn’t been confirmed to date.
The same could be said when it comes to Carpenter’s rumored relationship with Bassett. And although Carpenter and Bassett are still linked, nothing new has come out about them. Nonetheless, the rumors are strong enough to go unnoticed.
To end things up, Carpenter and Bassett are yet to confirm their rumored relationship. Additionally, Carpenter’s relationship status in 2022 remains unknown as she prefers to keep things private. So, until something is confirmed, not much could be said about anything.
A brief look at Sabrina Carpenter’s dating history
While Carpenter’s present relationship status is kept behind the curtains, the Girl Meets World star has been in a couple of relationships in the past.
One of her first relationships was with actor Bradley Steven Perry. The couple started dating in 2014, and J-14 reports that Perry asked out Carpenter in the cutest way possible. Recalling the moment, Carpenter said, “[It was a] really unique way to ask someone out.”
“[It was] like the pirate movies like they do the little bottles and they put notes in them and send them across the ocean, like one of those, and [he] put a note inside. It was cute,” she added.
After being in a relationship for around a year, they broke up in December 2015 due to undisclosed reasons. Years after her split with Perry, in 2017, the singer sparked dating speculations with another fellow singer Bradley Simpson.
However, those rumors were shut down by Carpenter during her interview with Seventeen Magazine. She said, “We completely ignore it. For me, first of all, I didn’t know about all this. Bradley also isn’t on social media very much. I think we just try to live in reality as much as we can.”
Similarly, Carpenter’s dating history includes another romance rumor with her Girl Meets World co-star Corey Fogelmanis. Years after the rumors originated, the actress shut down the gossip in 2018 while sending birthday wishes to Fogelmanis in a hilarious way.
In the caption, she had written, “Happy birthday Corey. You’re a great friend and I’m honored to know you, and not date you. Thanks for being there for me and not dating me. Love you so much. Platonically.”
Furthermore, Carpenter has also been linked to her Tall Girl co-star Griffin Gluck. They often shared cute pictures together and it seemed they were surely dating. However, the two never spoke about their rumored relationship.
They stopped sharing pictures alongside each other after mid-2020. Later, in August 2020, Bustle reported that Carpenter and Gluck had broken up.
