Sorrentino spotted alone

A fan spotted Paolo Sorrentino walking alone, probably coming back from picking up his mail at the end of his several mile long driveway, on the afternoon of August 10, 2026. Was he all alone? “Definitely yes,” says the fan, adding that “He was wearing a large sweater and looked really cute!”

Is Paolo back on the market?

A rep for Paolo Sorrentino was not immediately available for comment.

Truth or rumor, when news that the director was splitting hit the internet Tuesday (August 11), Twitter immediately exploded with pithy commentary. It seems everyone had an opinion on the matter:

“Has anyone Paolo’s phone number?”

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