Break-Up Rumors, Is Niki Lauda Single Again?

Are celebrities more likely to divorce or break up? Earlier this week news reports surfaced that Niki Lauda, 77, and his partner had split up. Is the Austrian racing driver really single again?

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

Lauda spotted alone

A fan spotted Niki Lauda 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 Niki back on the market?

A rep for Niki Lauda was not immediately available for comment.

Truth or rumor, when news that the racing driver 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 Niki’s phone number?”

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

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