Are celebrities more likely to divorce or break up? Earlier this week news reports surfaced that Sex Pistols lead singer John Lydon, 70, and his partner had split up. Is the Johnny Rotten really single again?

Lydon spotted alone
A fan spotted John Lydon walking alone, probably coming back from picking up his mail at the end of his several mile long driveway, on the afternoon of April 26, 2026. Was he all alone? “Definitely yes,” says the fan, adding that “He was wearing a large sweater and looked really cute!”
Is John back on the market?
A rep for John Lydon was not immediately available for comment.
Truth or rumor, when news that the singer was splitting hit the internet Monday (April 27), Twitter immediately exploded with pithy commentary. It seems everyone had an opinion on the matter:
“Has anyone John’s phone number?”

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

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