Is the French Prime Minister officially back on the market?

Are celebrities more likely to divorce or break up? Earlier this week news reports surfaced that Édouard Philippe, 55, and his partner had split up. Is the French Prime Minister really single again?

UPDATE 04/02/2026 : This story seems to be false. (read more)

Philippe spotted alone

A fan spotted Édouard Philippe walking alone, probably coming back from picking up his mail at the end of his several mile long driveway, on the afternoon of February 2, 2026. Was he all alone? “Definitely yes,” says the fan, adding that “He was wearing a large sweater and looked really cute!”

Is Édouard back on the market?

A rep for Édouard Philippe was not immediately available for comment.

Truth or rumor, when news that the politician was splitting hit the internet Tuesday (February 3), Twitter immediately exploded with pithy commentary. It seems everyone had an opinion on the matter:

“Has anyone Édouard’s phone number?”

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

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