Whitaker spotted alone

A fan spotted Forest Whitaker walking alone, probably coming back from picking up his mail at the end of his several mile long driveway, on the afternoon of May 15, 2025. Was he all alone? “Definitely yes,” says the fan, adding that “He was wearing a large sweater and looked really cute!”

Is Forest back on the market?

A rep for Forest Whitaker was not immediately available for comment.

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

“Has anyone Forest’s phone number?”
