Are celebrities more likely to divorce or break up? Earlier this week news reports surfaced that Michael Bay, 61, and his partner had split up. Is the director best known for Transformers, Pearl Harbor or Armageddon really single again?

Bay spotted alone
A fan spotted Michael Bay walking alone, probably coming back from picking up his mail at the end of his several mile long driveway, on the afternoon of February 18, 2026. Was he all alone? “Definitely yes,” says the fan, adding that “He was wearing a large sweater and looked really cute!”
Is Michael back on the market?
A rep for Michael Bay was not immediately available for comment.
Truth or rumor, when news that the director was splitting hit the internet Thursday (February 19), Twitter immediately exploded with pithy commentary. It seems everyone had an opinion on the matter:
“Has anyone Michael’s phone number?”

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

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