A fan spotted Bootsy Collins walking alone, probably coming back from picking up his mail at the end of his several mile long driveway, on the afternoon of January 31, 2026. Was he all alone? “Definitely yes,” says the fan, adding that “He was wearing a large sweater and looked really cute!”

Is Bootsy back on the market?

A rep for Bootsy Collins was not immediately available for comment.

Truth or rumor, when news that the musician was splitting hit the internet Sunday (February 1), Twitter immediately exploded with pithy commentary. It seems everyone had an opinion on the matter:

“Has anyone Bootsy’s phone number?”

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