Break-Up Rumors, Is N'Golo Kanté Single Again?

Are celebrities more likely to divorce or break up? Earlier this week news reports surfaced that N'Golo Kanté, 35, and his partner had split up. Is the French footballer really single again?

UPDATE 04/05/2026 : This story seems to be false. (read more)

Kanté spotted alone

A fan spotted N'Golo Kanté walking alone, probably coming back from picking up his mail at the end of his several mile long driveway, on the afternoon of May 2, 2026. Was he all alone? “Definitely yes,” says the fan, adding that “He was wearing a large sweater and looked really cute!”

Is N'Golo back on the market?

A rep for N'Golo Kanté was not immediately available for comment.

Truth or rumor, when news that the footballer was splitting hit the internet Sunday (May 3), Twitter immediately exploded with pithy commentary. It seems everyone had an opinion on the matter:

“Has anyone N'Golo’s phone number?”

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

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