Are celebrities more likely to divorce or break up? Earlier this week news reports surfaced that Wim Wenders, 80, and his partner had split up. Is the director best known for the movie Paris, Texas really single again?

UPDATE 18/05/2026 : This story seems to be false. (read more)

Wenders spotted alone

A fan spotted Wim Wenders walking alone, probably coming back from picking up his mail at the end of his several mile long driveway, on the afternoon of May 16, 2026. Was he all alone? “Definitely yes,” says the fan, adding that “He was wearing a large sweater and looked really cute!”

Is Wim back on the market?

A rep for Wim Wenders was not immediately available for comment.

Truth or rumor, when news that the director was splitting hit the internet Sunday (May 17), Twitter immediately exploded with pithy commentary. It seems everyone had an opinion on the matter:

“Has anyone Wim’s phone number?”

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

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