Are celebrities more likely to divorce or break up? Earlier this week news reports surfaced that José Manuel Barroso, 69, and his partner had split up. Is the European Commission president really single again?

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 July 24, 2025. 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 Friday (July 25), 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?
