Rowling spotted alone
A fan spotted J. K. Rowling walking alone, probably coming back from picking up her mail at the end of her several mile long driveway, on the afternoon of July 18, 2025. Was she all alone? “Definitely yes,” says the fan, adding that “She was wearing a large sweater and looked really cute!”
Is J. K. back on the market?
A rep for J. K. Rowling was not immediately available for comment.
Truth or rumor, when news that the author was splitting hit the internet Saturday (July 19), Twitter immediately exploded with pithy commentary. It seems everyone had an opinion on the matter:
“Has anyone J. K.’s phone number?”

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