Are celebrities more likely to divorce or break up? Earlier this week news reports surfaced that Ali Bongo, 66, and his partner had split up. Is the Gabonese president really single again?

Bongo spotted alone

A fan spotted Ali Bongo walking alone, probably coming back from picking up his mail at the end of his several mile long driveway, on the afternoon of January 14, 2026. Was he all alone? “Definitely yes,” says the fan, adding that “He was wearing a large sweater and looked really cute!”

Is Ali back on the market?

A rep for Ali Bongo was not immediately available for comment.

Truth or rumor, when news that the political figure was splitting hit the internet Thursday (January 15), Twitter immediately exploded with pithy commentary. It seems everyone had an opinion on the matter:

“Has anyone Ali’s phone number?”

“So very sad… Those 2 were so great as a couple. So cute together.”

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