Yaping spotted alone

A fan spotted Wang Yaping walking alone, probably coming back from picking up her mail at the end of her several mile long driveway, on the afternoon of May 24, 2026. Was she all alone? “Definitely yes,” says the fan, adding that “She was wearing a large sweater and looked really cute!”

Is Wang back on the market?

A rep for Wang Yaping was not immediately available for comment.

Truth or rumor, when news that the astronaut was splitting hit the internet Monday (May 25), Twitter immediately exploded with pithy commentary. It seems everyone had an opinion on the matter:

“Has anyone Wang’s phone number?”

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