The Internet is buzzing with Jean Todt and Michelle Yeoh breakup rumors. Let’s check how much truth there is in these stories. Jean Todt is a French motor racing director and former rally co-driver. He was the ninth president of the Fédération Internationale de l’Automobile (FIA). Michelle Yeoh is a Malaysian-born actress who spends her time between Hong Kong and the United States. She became famous for her performances in Hong Kong action films.
Have Jean Todt and Michelle Yeoh split up?
No, Jean Todt and Michelle Yeoh have not divorced, and speculation about their breakup is incorrect. In their Geneva villa, the former president of the FIA and his actress wife live happily ever after. Jean just threw Michelle a surprise birthday party in August 2022. She shared a video on Instagram, and the couple seems pretty happy with each other.
Indeed, Michelle rarely mentions her husband Jean in her social media posts. However, this does not mean that the two have separated. Maybe it’s simply because Michelle is an actress who is always in the spotlight, but Jean is the complete opposite.
