So, how did Sabrina and Joey meet? And how long have they been pals? Let’s take a look inside their friendship…

How long have Joey King and Sabrina Carpenter been friends?

Joey previously told Rolling Stone that she and Sabrina have “always known each other” and have been good friends for over a decade!

She said: “Funny thing is, her and I have always known each other and we’ve always been friends, but we didn’t become as close as we are now until like around four or five years ago.

“But we’ve known each other for over ten years.”

How did Joey King and Sabrina Carpenter meet?

Joey revealed how she and Sabrina first met, in a chat with her Kissing Booth co-star Joel Courtney. She said: “[We] first met many many years ago at, like, a charity event.”

Recalling the moment they met, she said: “Sabrina came over to me and was like, ‘Hi, I’m Sabrina!’ What’s funny is we weren’t always super close.

“For the first several years of our friendship, we would hang out like once every year and it was the funnest thing in the world, we don’t know why it took us so long to become as close as we are now [sic].”

They both have Disney Channel backgrounds so it's no surprise they met and it's so cute to see how they've remained friends throughout the years.

Did Sabrina Carpenter sing at Joey King's wedding?

She did indeed! Sabrina sang 'Tjugonde', by the Swedish band Amason, at Joey's and Steven Piet's wedding in Mallorca, Spain. Sabrina even perfectly sang the song in Swedish rather than translating it. If that doesn't scream besties for life then what does!

The pair regularly make appearances on each other’s respective Instagram accounts and Joey even made a cameo in Sabrina’s ‘Sue Me’ music video!

BBF goals or what?!

What have Joey and Sabrina said about each other?

In September 2024 Joey praised Joey for her humour while listing her fave songs on Sabrina's latest album 'Short N' Sweet'.

Speaking to People, she said: "Okay this changes literally everyday... I'll tell you where I'm stuck here because Bed Chem it's so good, [and] Taste is just so, I wanna dance to that at the clurb, I'm obssesed with that song.

"Don't Smile is a perfect song I believe, it's a perfect song I fear. Any song, which is every single one that has her twisted humour that makes him laugh so often."

When Joey announced her engagement to Steven on Instagram, Sabrina shared her support commenting: "Still getting used to our open relationship but really happy for you guys.”

A couple of days after the big day she shared an adorable picture of them together on her Instagram where Sabrina has Joey's face in her hands and Joey's blowing her a kiss.
