Is the 82-year-old director officially back on the market?

Are celebrities more likely to divorce or break up? Earlier this week news reports surfaced that Jacques Doillon, 82, and his partner had split up. Is the director best known for The Little Gangster or The Hussy really single again?

UPDATE 16/05/2026 : This story seems to be false. (read more)

Doillon spotted alone

A fan spotted Jacques Doillon walking alone, probably coming back from picking up his mail at the end of his several mile long driveway, on the afternoon of May 14, 2026. Was he all alone? “Definitely yes,” says the fan, adding that “He was wearing a large sweater and looked really cute!”

Is Jacques back on the market?

A rep for Jacques Doillon was not immediately available for comment.

Truth or rumor, when news that the director - known for having been romantically involved with Jane Birkin - was splitting hit the internet Friday (May 15), Twitter immediately exploded with pithy commentary. It seems everyone had an opinion on the matter:

“Has anyone Jacques’s phone number?”

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

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