Are celebrities more likely to divorce or break up? Earlier this week news reports surfaced that Backstreet Boys singer A. J. McLean, 48, and his partner had split up. Is the American singer really single again?

McLean spotted alone
A fan spotted A. J. McLean walking alone, probably coming back from picking up his mail at the end of his several mile long driveway, on the afternoon of January 15, 2026. Was he all alone? “Definitely yes,” says the fan, adding that “He was wearing a large sweater and looked really cute!”
Is A. J. back on the market?
A rep for A. J. McLean was not immediately available for comment.
Truth or rumor, when news that the singer was splitting hit the internet Friday (January 16), Twitter immediately exploded with pithy commentary. It seems everyone had an opinion on the matter:
“Has anyone A. J.’s phone number?”

Based on the facts (McLean spotted alone with a cute sweater), is there trouble in paradise or is it much ado about nothing?
