Are celebrities more likely to divorce or break up? Earlier this week news reports surfaced that AC/DC drummer Phil Rudd, 72, and his partner had split up. Is the Australian drummer really single again?

UPDATE 01/11/2026 : This story seems to be false. (read more)

Rudd spotted alone

A fan spotted Phil Rudd walking alone, probably coming back from picking up his mail at the end of his several mile long driveway, on the afternoon of October 30, 2026. Was he all alone? “Definitely yes,” says the fan, adding that “He was wearing a large sweater and looked really cute!”

Is Phil back on the market?

A rep for Phil Rudd was not immediately available for comment.

Truth or rumor, when news that the drummer was splitting hit the internet Saturday (October 31), Twitter immediately exploded with pithy commentary. It seems everyone had an opinion on the matter:

“Has anyone Phil’s phone number?”

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

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