Are celebrities more likely to divorce or break up? Earlier this week news reports surfaced that E. L. James, 63, and her partner had split up. Is the author of Fifty Shades of Grey really single again?

James spotted alone
A fan spotted E. L. James walking alone, probably coming back from picking up her mail at the end of her several mile long driveway, on the afternoon of October 28, 2026. Was she all alone? “Definitely yes,” says the fan, adding that “She was wearing a large sweater and looked really cute!”
Is Erika back on the market?
A rep for E. L. James was not immediately available for comment.
Truth or rumor, when news that the author was splitting hit the internet Thursday (October 29), Twitter immediately exploded with pithy commentary. It seems everyone had an opinion on the matter:
“Has anyone Erika’s phone number?”

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