Are celebrities more likely to divorce or break up? Earlier this week news reports surfaced that Paul Dano, 42, and his partner had split up. Is the actor best known for his roles in Looper, Ruby Sparks, There Will Be Blood or Little Miss Sunshine really single again?

UPDATE 15/07/2026 : This story seems to be false. (read more)

Dano spotted alone

A fan spotted Paul Dano walking alone, probably coming back from picking up his mail at the end of his several mile long driveway, on the afternoon of July 13, 2026. Was he all alone? “Definitely yes,” says the fan, adding that “He was wearing a large sweater and looked really cute!”

Is Paul back on the market?

A rep for Paul Dano was not immediately available for comment.

Truth or rumor, when news that the actor was splitting hit the internet Tuesday (July 14), Twitter immediately exploded with pithy commentary. It seems everyone had an opinion on the matter:

“Has anyone Paul’s phone number?”

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

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