Are celebrities more likely to divorce or break up? Earlier this week news reports surfaced that Earth, Wind & Fire bassist Verdine White, 74, and his partner had split up. Is the American musician really single again?

UPDATE 04/07/2026 : This story seems to be false. (read more)

White spotted alone

A fan spotted Verdine White walking alone, probably coming back from picking up his mail at the end of his several mile long driveway, on the afternoon of July 2, 2026. Was he all alone? “Definitely yes,” says the fan, adding that “He was wearing a large sweater and looked really cute!”

Is Verdine back on the market?

A rep for Verdine White was not immediately available for comment.

Truth or rumor, when news that the musician was splitting hit the internet Friday (July 3), Twitter immediately exploded with pithy commentary. It seems everyone had an opinion on the matter:

“Has anyone Verdine’s phone number?”

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

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