Joey King and Sabrina Carpenter have shared one of Hollywood’s tightest, most chaotic friendships for the better part of a decade. While promoting Practical Magic 2 alongside co-star Maisie Williams, King finally addressed the internet’s obsession with their inner circle during an unfiltered fan comment segment and she delivered an immediate, deadpan offer to expand the roster.
Joey King Responds to Sabrina Carpenter Fans
The moment unfolded during a Hits Radio segment where King and Williams sat down to respond to wild audience submissions. When one fan called out King’s close bond with Carpenter and begged for a way in, King didn’t flinch.
“Anyone can join this couple and we can turn this into a throuple. We’re good fun,” she said.
The joke comes from two people whose bond runs far deeper than red-carpet appearances. After meeting at a charity event in their Disney Channel days, the pair have been inseparable since King starred in Carpenter’s 2018 music video for “Sue Me.”
Over the years, that dynamic has evolved from goofy birthday posts to major milestones: Carpenter even sang down the aisle when King married director Steven Piet in Spain in 2023, tearfully calling King her “wife” on social media.
That protective, unhinged banter is also nothing new for fans tracking the duo. When King pulled up her private Instagram DMs during an interview, she revealed how quickly she steps into attack-dog mode on Carpenter’s behalf, firing back with instant, hilarious aggression whenever someone disrespects her best friend online.
Hollywood friendships often stay guarded behind pristine PR polish, but King and Carpenter have built an entire brand out of roasting each other in public and gatekeeping each other in private. And as long as the two keep treating each other like sitcom co-stars in real life, expect plenty more unfiltered chaos to spill out into the open.
