Is the 47-year-old footballer officially back on the market?

Are celebrities more likely to divorce or break up? Earlier this week news reports surfaced that Nicolas Anelka, 47, and his partner had split up. Is the French footballer really single again?

UPDATE 24/10/2026 : This story seems to be false. (read more)

Anelka spotted alone

A fan spotted Nicolas Anelka walking alone, probably coming back from picking up his mail at the end of his several mile long driveway, on the afternoon of October 22, 2026. Was he all alone? “Definitely yes,” says the fan, adding that “He was wearing a large sweater and looked really cute!”

Is Nicolas back on the market?

A rep for Nicolas Anelka was not immediately available for comment.

Truth or rumor, when news that the footballer was splitting hit the internet Friday (October 23), Twitter immediately exploded with pithy commentary. It seems everyone had an opinion on the matter:

“Has anyone Nicolas’s phone number?”

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

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