Östlund spotted alone

A fan spotted Ruben Östlund walking alone, probably coming back from picking up his mail at the end of his several mile long driveway, on the afternoon of October 9, 2026. Was he all alone? “Definitely yes,” says the fan, adding that “He was wearing a large sweater and looked really cute!”

Is Ruben back on the market?

A rep for Ruben Östlund was not immediately available for comment.

Truth or rumor, when news that the director was splitting hit the internet Saturday (October 10), Twitter immediately exploded with pithy commentary. It seems everyone had an opinion on the matter:

“Has anyone Ruben’s phone number?”

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