Dakota Johnson and Chris Martin Reportedly Call It Quits – Is This the End for Good?
After years of an on-again, off-again romance, whispers of a final split between actress Dakota Johnson and Coldplay frontman Chris Martin are swirling. Sources close to the couple have confirmed to PEOPLE that their relationship has come to an end, with one source stating, 'It feels final this time.'
The news arrives after a period of speculation regarding the couple’s future. Johnson, 34, and Martin, 47, first ignited romance rumors in 2017, quickly becoming a Hollywood power couple known for their discreet yet charming relationship. They largely kept their romance out of the public eye, rarely gracing red carpets together and preferring to maintain a low profile.
While the pair have been intensely private, their connection seemed genuine. They’ve been spotted supporting each other’s careers, with Martin attending Johnson’s film premieres and Johnson cheering on Coldplay during their concerts. They have also spent significant time together in both London and Los Angeles, showcasing a commitment to bridging the distance between their respective lives.
The relationship wasn't without its reported challenges. In March 2024, reports surfaced suggesting the couple had been engaged for several years. However, the engagement wasn't publicly announced, and the nature of their commitment remained largely private. The source’s statement about this latest split, 'It feels final this time,' suggests a definitive end to the relationship and a potential shift in their future paths.
Both Johnson and Martin have previously navigated complex relationships. Johnson was famously engaged to actor Jesse Eisenberg, while Martin was previously married to actress Gwyneth Paltrow with whom he shares two children, Apple and Moses. The complexities of blending families and careers have undoubtedly played a role in the couple’s decision.
The reasons behind this reported breakup remain undisclosed. However, the long distance and differing career demands often put a strain on even the most devoted couples. It's clear that both Johnson and Martin are incredibly talented and accomplished individuals, and their paths may simply be diverging at this time.
As fans and media alike grapple with the news, all eyes are on Johnson and Martin to see what the future holds. While the end of a relationship can be a difficult time, it also presents an opportunity for new beginnings and personal growth. We wish both Dakota Johnson and Chris Martin all the best in their future endeavors.
