Sonnenfeld spotted alone
A fan spotted Barry Sonnenfeld walking alone, probably coming back from picking up his mail at the end of his several mile long driveway, on the afternoon of August 22, 2026. Was he all alone? “Definitely yes,” says the fan, adding that “He was wearing a large sweater and looked really cute!”
Is Barry back on the market?
A rep for Barry Sonnenfeld was not immediately available for comment.
Truth or rumor, when news that the director was splitting hit the internet Sunday (August 23), Twitter immediately exploded with pithy commentary. It seems everyone had an opinion on the matter:
“Has anyone Barry’s phone number?”
