Barrino spotted alone

A fan spotted Fantasia Barrino walking alone, probably coming back from picking up her mail at the end of her several mile long driveway, on the afternoon of January 10, 2026. Was she all alone? “Definitely yes,” says the fan, adding that “She was wearing a large sweater and looked really cute!”

Is Fantasia back on the market?

A rep for Fantasia Barrino was not immediately available for comment.

Truth or rumor, when news that the singer was splitting hit the internet Sunday (January 11), Twitter immediately exploded with pithy commentary. It seems everyone had an opinion on the matter:

“Has anyone Fantasia’s phone number?”

“Hate to see Barrino split up, but I thought the pairing was a little weird.”

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