Barroso spotted alone
A fan spotted José Manuel Barroso walking alone, probably coming back from picking up his mail at the end of his several mile long driveway, on the afternoon of March 13, 2026. Was he all alone? “Definitely yes,” says the fan, adding that “He was wearing a large sweater and looked really cute!”
Is José Manuel back on the market?
A rep for José Manuel Barroso was not immediately available for comment.
Truth or rumor, when news that the politician was splitting hit the internet Saturday (March 14), Twitter immediately exploded with pithy commentary. It seems everyone had an opinion on the matter:
“Has anyone José Manuel’s phone number?”

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

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