Are celebrities more likely to divorce or break up? Earlier this week news reports surfaced that Simon & Garfunkel singer Paul Simon, 84, and his partner had split up. Is the singer best known for hit songs like Bridge over Troubled Water, Mrs. Robinson or The Sound of Silence really single again?
UPDATE 16/09/2026 : This story seems to be false. (read more)
Simon spotted alone
A fan spotted Paul Simon walking alone, probably coming back from picking up his mail at the end of his several mile long driveway, on the afternoon of September 14, 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 Simon was not immediately available for comment.
Truth or rumor, when news that the singer was splitting hit the internet Tuesday (September 15), 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 (Simon spotted alone with a cute sweater), is there trouble in paradise or is it much ado about nothing?
