Are celebrities more likely to divorce or break up? Earlier this week news reports surfaced that Valérie Payet, 61, and her partner had split up. Is the journalist best known as cast member of Nulle Part Ailleurs really single again?

UPDATE 30/07/2026 : This story seems to be false. (read more)

Payet spotted alone

A fan spotted Valérie Payet walking alone, probably coming back from picking up her mail at the end of her several mile long driveway, on the afternoon of July 28, 2026. Was she all alone? “Definitely yes,” says the fan, adding that “She was wearing a large sweater and looked really cute!”

Is Valérie back on the market?

A rep for Valérie Payet was not immediately available for comment.

Truth or rumor, when news that the journalist was splitting hit the internet Wednesday (July 29), Twitter immediately exploded with pithy commentary. It seems everyone had an opinion on the matter:

“Has anyone Valérie’s phone number?”

“Hate to see Payet split up, but I thought the pairing was a little weird.”

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