Sabrina Carpenter & Joshua Bassett Dating Rumors Surfaced In 2020

The rumor of Sabrina’s relationship with the High School Musical: The Musical: The Series actor first saw the light of day in 2020. Sources confirm that this couple was caught together in a Black Lives Matter protest in LA – this is how it all started. Fans did not need any further explanation to assume that they were together.

Following this, their speculations reached heights when Joshua’s ex-cum-co-star posted a TikTok video of her, which led the fans to believe that she and he had broken up. In the video, Olivia Rodrigo was seen eating a muffin, with her song, All I Want, playing in the background. Moreover, in the caption, she wrote,

“And that’s on failed relationships.”

Therefore, it then did not take the artists’ fans to believe that their favorite stars were dating.

Olivia Rodrigo’s Drivers License Caused A Bit Of A Hassle In Their “Relationship”

Olivia Rodrigo was Joshua’s then-girlfriend before he moved on with Carpenter. These two were so-stars on HSMTMTS and were rumored to be in a relationship in 2019. Unfortunately, their love did not last long, as Bassett moved on with The Hate U Give actress.

As the news of this Disney+ show actor moved on, Rodrigo released her new song, Drivers License – this caused a lot of chaos in this whole “rumored” fiasco.

The main theme of Olivia’s song was about an ex who moved on with a different girl. Moreover, fans immediately thought of Joshua Bassett as they heard the whole song. Even more so, in one of the verses, the Good For You singer points out that her lover loved on with a “blonde girl”. Even more so, sources confirm that the original words in the verse were “brunette girl”. Many then started to believe that she was trying to vent through her song about her ex moving on with Carpenter.

Joshua & Sabrina Released A Duet Together

Around January 2021, Bassett planned to release an extended play of his music. Furthermore, the early tracklist of the EP featured a duet between him and Sabrina, We Both Know.

In addition, Bassett also confirmed this good news in an interview with Febre Teen. According to him, he slid into Sabrina’s duet to pitch the idea for the song and request her to sing it with him. Fortunately, she agreed.

Sad as it is, in February 2021, Bassett informed his fans that he was removing the duet and adding another song, Telling Myself. He said that it was his and Carpenter’s mutual decision to give up on their song together. Moreover, in an interview with Billboard, the actor said,

“I didn’t want my EP to be overshadowed by some other narrative that people were trying to make. I really want the focus to be on the art instead of some of the talk and the chatter. You shouldn’t live to please everybody, but at the same time, there are ways to be sensitive to situations where maybe [‘We Both Know’] has a better chance at a different time.”

This news was saddening to most of their fans since they really were eager to see the rumored love birds together.
