Are celebrities more likely to divorce or break up? Earlier this week news reports surfaced that Duane Eddy, 87, and his partner had split up. Is the guitarist best known for his hit song Peter Gunn really single again?

UPDATE 17/01/2026 : This story seems to be false. (read more)

Eddy spotted alone

A fan spotted Duane Eddy walking alone, probably coming back from picking up his mail at the end of his several mile long driveway, on the afternoon of January 15, 2026. Was he all alone? “Definitely yes,” says the fan, adding that “He was wearing a large sweater and looked really cute!”

Is Duane back on the market?

A rep for Duane Eddy was not immediately available for comment.

Truth or rumor, when news that the guitarist was splitting hit the internet Friday (January 16), Twitter immediately exploded with pithy commentary. It seems everyone had an opinion on the matter:

“Has anyone Duane’s phone number?”

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

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