Bassett spotted alone
A fan spotted Angela Bassett walking alone, probably coming back from picking up her mail at the end of her several mile long driveway, on the afternoon of January 11, 2026. Was she all alone? “Definitely yes,” says the fan, adding that “She was wearing a large sweater and looked really cute!”
Is Angela back on the market?
A rep for Angela Bassett was not immediately available for comment.
Truth or rumor, when news that the actress was splitting hit the internet Monday (January 12), Twitter immediately exploded with pithy commentary. It seems everyone had an opinion on the matter:
“Has anyone Angela’s phone number?”

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