McCarthy spotted alone

A fan spotted Tom McCarthy walking alone, probably coming back from picking up his mail at the end of his several mile long driveway, on the afternoon of November 10, 2026. Was he all alone? “Definitely yes,” says the fan, adding that “He was wearing a large sweater and looked really cute!”

Is Tom back on the market?

A rep for Tom McCarthy was not immediately available for comment.

Truth or rumor, when news that the director was splitting hit the internet Wednesday (November 11), Twitter immediately exploded with pithy commentary. It seems everyone had an opinion on the matter:

“Has anyone Tom’s phone number?”

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

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