Singer Sabrina Carpenter has sought a restraining order against an alleged stalker, citing over a month of persistent and alarming behavior. The legal filing, submitted to a Los Angeles court on May 29, 2026, details multiple alleged incidents of the man trespassing onto her property and attempting to gain unauthorized entry into her home.
According to court documents, the man first approached Carpenter's residence on May 23, bypassing security by entering a neighbor's property and breaching her fence. Carpenter stated in the filing that the man's actions were "deliberate, planned, and aggressive, and alarming." She further alleged that he "actively tried to force his way into my home without permission or any consent whatsoever."
The singer, known for her song "Manchild," also reported that the individual falsely claimed to know her personally and was expected at the house. Los Angeles police were called to the scene and made an arrest. Despite the arrest, the man reportedly remained in the vicinity for approximately two hours in his car, observing the property, before leaving. He returned again on May 25, marking the third consecutive day of alleged harassment.
Carpenter expressed that the stalking has caused "significant and ongoing fear" for her personal safety and that of her household, including her sister, Sarah, who also resides there. She described the man's behavior as an "escalating and dangerous pattern" as he aggressively approached her home, culminating in an unlawful entry. The restraining order aims to protect Carpenter and her household from further harassment.
