Are celebrities more likely to divorce or break up? Earlier this week news reports surfaced that Mesut Özil, 37, and his partner had split up. Is the German footballer really single again?
UPDATE 24/02/2026 : This story seems to be false. (read more)
Özil spotted alone
A fan spotted Mesut Özil walking alone, probably coming back from picking up his mail at the end of his several mile long driveway, on the afternoon of February 22, 2026. Was he all alone? “Definitely yes,” says the fan, adding that “He was wearing a large sweater and looked really cute!”
Is Mesut back on the market?
A rep for Mesut Özil was not immediately available for comment.
Truth or rumor, when news that the footballer - known for having been romantically involved with Aída Yéspica - was splitting hit the internet Monday (February 23), Twitter immediately exploded with pithy commentary. It seems everyone had an opinion on the matter:
“Has anyone Mesut’s phone number?”

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

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