von der Leyen spotted alone

A fan spotted Ursula von der Leyen walking alone, probably coming back from picking up her mail at the end of her several mile long driveway, on the afternoon of March 18, 2026. Was she all alone? “Definitely yes,” says the fan, adding that “She was wearing a large sweater and looked really cute!”

Is Ursula back on the market?

A rep for Ursula von der Leyen was not immediately available for comment.

Truth or rumor, when news that the politician was splitting hit the internet Thursday (March 19), Twitter immediately exploded with pithy commentary. It seems everyone had an opinion on the matter:

“Has anyone Ursula’s phone number?”
