Break-Up Rumors, Is Shohei Ohtani Single Again?

Are celebrities more likely to divorce or break up? Earlier this week news reports surfaced that Shohei Ohtani, 32, and his partner had split up. Is the Japanese baseball player really single again?

UPDATE 06/07/2026 : This story seems to be false. (read more)

Ohtani spotted alone

A fan spotted Shohei Ohtani walking alone, probably coming back from picking up his mail at the end of his several mile long driveway, on the afternoon of July 4, 2026. Was he all alone? “Definitely yes,” says the fan, adding that “He was wearing a large sweater and looked really cute!”

Is Shohei back on the market?

A rep for Shohei Ohtani was not immediately available for comment.

Truth or rumor, when news that the baseball player was splitting hit the internet Sunday (July 5), Twitter immediately exploded with pithy commentary. It seems everyone had an opinion on the matter:

“Has anyone Shohei’s phone number?”

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

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