According to insiders, Chris Martin is growing frustrated with his ex-wife Gwyneth Paltrow‘s continued involvement in his personal life. While the Coldplay frontman has maintained a friendly relationship with Paltrow for the sake of their children, Apple, 19, and Moses, 17, sources claim that he is starting to lose his cool because Paltrow won’t mind her own business.
Martin, 56, has been dating “50 Shades of Grey” star Dakota Johnson, 34, since 2017, three years after his split from Paltrow. However, it seems that Paltrow is trying to prove her modernity by claiming to be “very good friends” with Johnson.
Paltrow previously confessed, “I can see how it would seem weird because it’s sort of unconventional. I just adore her!” Despite Paltrow’s attempts to showcase her “progressive” co-parenting style by becoming friends with Johnson, sources say that Martin is over her act.
A source has claimed that Paltrow’s persistent phone calls and unannounced visits to Johnson have driven Martin up the wall. The insider told the National Enquirer, “Chris grew tired of Gwyneth’s ‘progressive’ behavior when they were still married and he doesn’t want to put up with it now.”
While Martin may be fed up with Paltrow’s interference, Johnson sought relationship advice from her. Johnson turned to Martin’s ex-wife as she pushed for him to commit to their relationship following a frightening incident with a stalker.
The couple has been dating for over five years, and Johnson was ready to settle down and start a family. However, Martin was apprehensive about taking that step.
Paltrow has advised Johnson
According to the insider, Paltrow advised Johnson that Martin’s moods are just part of who he is. She said, “Even after they married and had two kids, Chris would just say, ‘I’m going off for a bit,’ and fly away to be alone with his thoughts and write songs in solitude. That’s just how he rolls as an artist.”
Despite Paltrow’s advice, another close friend revealed that Johnson was having second thoughts about spending her life with Martin. She wants a husband who is fully committed and wants to raise a family with her, but she feels like she never gets 100% of him.
