Is the 71-year-old athlete officially back on the market?

Are celebrities more likely to divorce or break up? Earlier this week news reports surfaced that Bernard Hinault, 71, and his partner had split up. Is the French athlete really single again?

UPDATE 18/12/2025 : This story seems to be false. (read more)

Hinault spotted alone

A fan spotted Bernard Hinault walking alone, probably coming back from picking up his mail at the end of his several mile long driveway, on the afternoon of December 16, 2025. Was he all alone? “Definitely yes,” says the fan, adding that “He was wearing a large sweater and looked really cute!”

Is Bernard back on the market?

A rep for Bernard Hinault was not immediately available for comment.

Truth or rumor, when news that the athlete was splitting hit the internet Wednesday (December 17), Twitter immediately exploded with pithy commentary. It seems everyone had an opinion on the matter:

“Has anyone Bernard’s phone number?”

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

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