On Friday, several American and British media outlets reserved their front pages for what seemed to be the breakup of the year. The news was reported by the Daily Mail on its website: The love between Chris Martin and Dakota Johnson had come to an endthe newspaper assured in an article that included a statement from a source “close” to the Coldplay leader.
The same article, which was later replicated by other websites, indicated that the musician and the actress spent a few months apart before finally calling off their engagement. “Martin accepted that the relationship was over and that it was better to move on,” they explained.

Hours later, however, the rep for Don Johnson and Melanie Griffith’s daughter issued a statement flatly denying that story. “The reports are not true,” the agent said in a brief statement sent to both Page Six and People just hours after the rumors surfaced on Friday. He added: “They are happily together.”
The Daily Mail scoop was based on a few clues. This past weekend, for example, the star of 50 Shades of Grey She was photographed while walking her dog in Malibu, where she lives with the Coldplay frontman: the emerald engagement ring that she used to proudly wear is not visible in the image.
The actress’s absence in Munich, where Martin landed as part of the European leg of his world tour, was also notable. Music of the Spheres. It is that during the years they spent together and when she was not on the set, it was very common to see the actress dancing to the songs of the English band mixed in with the public, as happened during the band’s visit to Buenos Aires.
“Chris and Dakota have been trying desperately over the past few months to make their relationship work,” a source close to the couple told the Daily Mail in the early hours of Friday. “They will always love each other but have both come to the conclusion that the relationship cannot be sustained in the long term,” she added. “They are both very busy people – Chris has been in Europe with Coldplay and they both have personal priorities, passions and work commitments that don’t naturally intertwine. They wanted it to work but it hasn’t and they have now accepted that it’s best to move on.”
These versions led the actress to The Dark Daughter to break one of his golden rules: not to talk about his private life, despite not having done so directly but through his representative.

By 2019, Johnson and Martin had already split up. At the time, the musician, who is the father of Apple, 20, and Moses, 18, from his marriage to Gwyneth Paltrow, wanted to be a father again and the singer wanted to focus on her career. Whatever the reasons, the truth is that they were soon seen together again.
Speculation about a new crisis resurfaced in May, after the singer got a fan into his car, who then posted on X that he was “single.” However, at the time a person close to them told People magazine that the bond was still “strong”: “They have had ups and downs, but now they are definitely back.”
In March of this year, it became known that Martin and Johnson were engaged. According to the English newspaper The Mirror, it was the singer who proposed to the actress. However, before proposing, he had a chat with Paltrow and her children, and they all gave him the go-ahead.
Dakota and Chris began seeing each other in 2017, a year after the rocker “consciously uncoupled” from the star of Great expectations. At that time, the first images that emerged of the couple were those of a dinner together in Los Angeles. The relationship was confirmed when she accompanied him to Argentina, to be part of the last shows of the tour. Head Full Of Dreams.

Johnson and Paltrow have always been close, even in public. Their good relationship made headlines last year when, at the request of a follower, the ex-girlfriend of Brad Pitt and Ben Affleck posted a photo of the two holding hands on her Instagram account. Grateful for the gesture, Johnson spoke about the post and the importance of bonds in her life.
“I’m glad there’s been that positive reaction. I grew up in a very large family and I just believe in the saying, ‘Blood is thicker than water.’ The original saying is, ‘The blood of the covenant is thicker than the water in the womb,’ meaning that the relationships with the people you choose to be a part of your life are stronger than the connections with the people you were born with,” she explained. “No matter how fucked up I am, or who’s in rehab, or who’s not talking to who, or who’s divorcing who… We’re family. And we’re always going to be family.”
