Are celebrities more likely to divorce or break up? Earlier this week news reports surfaced that Wes Anderson, 57, and his partner had split up. Is the director best known for The Grand Budapest Hotel, Moonrise Kingdom, Fantastic Mr. Fox, The Royal Tenenbaums or Rushmore really single again?

UPDATE 22/08/2026 : This story seems to be false. (read more)

Anderson spotted alone

A fan spotted Wes Anderson walking alone, probably coming back from picking up his mail at the end of his several mile long driveway, on the afternoon of August 20, 2026. Was he all alone? “Definitely yes,” says the fan, adding that “He was wearing a large sweater and looked really cute!”

Is Wes back on the market?

A rep for Wes Anderson was not immediately available for comment.

Truth or rumor, when news that the director was splitting hit the internet Friday (August 21), Twitter immediately exploded with pithy commentary. It seems everyone had an opinion on the matter:

“Has anyone Wes’s phone number?”

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

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