Are celebrities more likely to divorce or break up? Earlier this week news reports surfaced that U2 guitarist the Edge, 64, and his partner had split up. Is the British guitarist really single again?

UPDATE 17/05/2026 : This story seems to be false. (read more)

The Edge spotted alone

A fan spotted The Edge walking alone, probably coming back from picking up his mail at the end of his several mile long driveway, on the afternoon of May 15, 2026. Was he all alone? “Definitely yes,” says the fan, adding that “He was wearing a large sweater and looked really cute!”

Is The Edge back on the market?

A rep for The Edge was not immediately available for comment.

Truth or rumor, when news that the guitarist was splitting hit the internet Saturday (May 16), Twitter immediately exploded with pithy commentary. It seems everyone had an opinion on the matter:

“Has anyone The Edge’s phone number?”

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

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