Dakota Johnson and Chris Martin: Couple "Happily Together" Amidst Breakup Rumours
Dakota Johnson and Chris Martin, despite recent whispers of a potential split, remain a united front. A spokesperson for the "Madame Web" actress confirmed to PEOPLE that the pair are very much still together.
"They are happily together," the rep stated, dismissing rumours circulating regarding a possible break-up. The 34-year-old actress and the 47-year-old Coldplay frontman have been linked romantically since 2017, first spotted enjoying a sushi date in Los Angeles.
Their recent appearance together at the Glastonbury Festival in the UK, with Johnson supporting Martin during his band's headline performance, further solidified the couple's enduring bond. A source close to the couple had previously shared with PEOPLE that their relationship was in a strong place, stating, "Theyâve had ups and downs, but now theyâre definitely back on."
Further supporting their continued togetherness, a music insider told PEOPLE that the couple was recently spotted together in Helsinki, just two weeks prior. Johnson's involvement in the music video for Coldplay's recent single "feelslikeimfallinginlove" also hinted at their continued collaborative spirit.
Despite their high profile, the couple has largely kept their relationship out of the public eye. In 2019, a source revealed that Martin and Johnson were "pretty serious," suggesting a deepening commitment. Reports surfaced in March of this year that the couple had become engaged years ago, but opted to take their time regarding a wedding.
Martin's public dedication of the song "Universe" to his partner during a Coldplay concert in October 2021 further emphasised his affection for Johnson. "This is about my universe, and she's here," he declared to the audience.
Gwyneth Paltrow, Martin's ex-wife and the mother of their children Apple and Moses, has also publicly expressed her fondness for Johnson, stating in a 2020 interview with Harper's Bazaar, "I love her." Paltrow's repeated public displays of support for Johnson, including her description of the actress as "an adorable, wonderful person" during an Instagram Q&A in 2023, suggest a healthy and amicable relationship between the three.
Despite their unconventional path to togetherness, Johnson and Martin continue to navigate their relationship with privacy and mutual support, proving that their love story is far from over.
