Davis spotted alone

A fan spotted Sammy Davis, Jr. walking alone, probably coming back from picking up his mail at the end of his several mile long driveway, on the afternoon of February 22, 2026. Was he all alone? “Definitely yes,” says the fan, adding that “He was wearing a large sweater and looked really cute!”

Is Sammy back on the market?

A rep for Sammy Davis, Jr. was not immediately available for comment.

Truth or rumor, when news that the singer - known for having been romantically involved with Romy Schneider, Kim Novak, Diahann Carroll or Peggy Lipton - was splitting hit the internet Monday (February 23), Twitter immediately exploded with pithy commentary. It seems everyone had an opinion on the matter:

“Has anyone Sammy’s phone number?”

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

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