Carpenter revealed that Keoghan approved the lyrics for the video and expressed his excitement about the song. She mentioned, "He's a fan of the song," highlighting his genuine support for her music.
Initially, Carpenter kept her relationship with Keoghan private but later addressed the rumors. They have been linked since late last year and made headlines by attending the Met Gala together. In a previous interview, Carpenter called working with Keoghan "one of the best experiences" and praised him as a great actor.
Released on June 6, 2024, "Please Please Please" follows the success of her single "Espresso," which she debuted live at Coachella 2024. The music video features vibrant visuals and playful lyrics, referencing iconic criminals like Bonnie and Clyde. One cheeky line playfully alludes to Keoghan's acting career: "I heard that you're an actor, so act like a stand-up guy." Fans quickly embraced the video and expressed their support for the couple.
In the UK, "Please Please Please" debuted at number one on the Singles Chart, while "Espresso" claimed the second spot. This achievement made Carpenter the first female artist to hold the top two positions for five consecutive weeks, sharing the honor with Ed Sheeran as the only artist to do so.
