Bernanke spotted alone

A fan spotted Ben Bernanke walking alone, probably coming back from picking up his mail at the end of his several mile long driveway, on the afternoon of November 9, 2026. Was he all alone? “Definitely yes,” says the fan, adding that “He was wearing a large sweater and looked really cute!”

Is Ben back on the market?

A rep for Ben Bernanke was not immediately available for comment.

Truth or rumor, when news that the economist was splitting hit the internet Tuesday (November 10), Twitter immediately exploded with pithy commentary. It seems everyone had an opinion on the matter:

“Has anyone Ben’s phone number?”

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

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