Are celebrities more likely to divorce or break up? Earlier this week news reports surfaced that Malcolm McDowell, 82, and his partner had split up. Is the actor best known for his roles in Caligula or A Clockwork Orange really single again?

UPDATE 11/01/2026 : This story seems to be false. (read more)

McDowell spotted alone

A fan spotted Malcolm McDowell walking alone, probably coming back from picking up his mail at the end of his several mile long driveway, on the afternoon of January 9, 2026. Was he all alone? “Definitely yes,” says the fan, adding that “He was wearing a large sweater and looked really cute!”

Is Malcolm back on the market?

A rep for Malcolm McDowell was not immediately available for comment.

Truth or rumor, when news that the actor was splitting hit the internet Saturday (January 10), Twitter immediately exploded with pithy commentary. It seems everyone had an opinion on the matter:

“Has anyone Malcolm’s phone number?”

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

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