Chris Martin and Dakota Johnson are still very much together, despite a recent report suggesting otherwise.
Johnson’s representative denied the rumors of a split, clarifying that the report is untrue.
“They are happily together,” the statement confirmed.
Martin and Johnson have been romantically linked since 2017, after they were seen having dinner together at a sushi restaurant in Los Angeles.
Although they aren’t married, Johnson revealed earlier this year in an interview that she considers herself a stepmother to Martin’s two children, Apple and Moses, whom he shares with his ex-wife, Gwyneth Paltrow.
“I love those kids like my life depends on it. With all my heart,” she said in the interview, which was published on March 5.
Paltrow has also publicly expressed her fondness for Johnson. In a 2020 interview, she shared her admiration for the Madame Web star.
“I love her,” Paltrow said. “I can see how it would seem weird because it’s sort of unconventional. But I think, in this case, just having passed through it iteratively, I just adore her.”
Here’s a timeline of Johnson and Martin’s relationship:
In October 2017, Chris Martin and Dakota Johnson were first spotted together, grabbing dinner at a sushi restaurant in Los Angeles.
The pair were seen several more times in Malibu throughout 2018, often in casual and happy moments.
One outing included them sharing food and drinks at Soho House in Malibu, while another had them walking arm-in-arm along the beach.
Johnson’s mother, Melanie Griffith, expressed her approval of the Coldplay frontman when asked about her daughter’s relationship with Martin.
“I adore him!” Griffith said in May 2018, during the Global Gift Foundation USA Women’s Empowerment Luncheon. However, she noted that Johnson is very private about her personal life, and she respects that.
In August 2019, Johnson and Martin were spotted enjoying a day at the beach in the Hamptons.
They were joined by Martin’s ex-wife, Gwyneth Paltrow, and her husband, Brad Falchuk, while they sat on the sand and took in the ocean view.
In a January 2020 interview, Paltrow revealed how she felt about Martin’s relationship with Johnson.
“I love her,” Paltrow said. “I can see how it would seem weird because it’s sort of unconventional.
But I think, in this case, just having passed through it iteratively, I just adore her.
I always start to think of the ampersand sign—what else can you bring in, instead of being resistant to or being made insecure by? There’s so much juice in leaning in to something like that.”
She also mentioned that she stays close to some of her ex-boyfriends, including Tony Woods, one of her best friends from high school, and Brad Pitt, with whom she remains friendly.
Coldplay’s “Cry Cry Cry” video
In February 2020, Johnson made headlines when it was revealed that she directed Coldplay’s music video for “Cry Cry Cry.” She shared in an interview how the opportunity came about.
“I wrote the story and pitched it to the band like every other director did, and they chose mine—not because they’re partial to me at all,” she said with a laugh.
Speaking about her work ethic, Johnson said she pours herself into her projects.
“When I work, I’m constantly thinking about the job. It takes up so much of my brain,” she explained.
“Not all of my projects are only good messages, but all of them have a little bit of something that makes me feel like it’s an okay thing to pour my heart into.”
In December 2020, rumors circulated that Johnson and Martin were engaged after Johnson was seen wearing a large green ring on her finger.
In a December 2021 interview, Johnson discussed her relationship with Martin and their lifestyle.
“We’ve been together for quite a while, and we go out sometimes, but we both work so much that it’s nice to be at home and be cozy and private,” she said. “Most of the partying takes place inside my house.”
In April 2022, Barbra Streisand posted a heartwarming photo of herself with friends, including Martin and Johnson, as part of her 80th birthday celebration.
“With friends at my recent tea party,” she captioned the post on Instagram.
Fans responded with excitement, praising the guest list and expressing their envy over those who attended.
In an interview in March 2024, Johnson opened up about her role as a stepmother to Apple and Moses. Although she and Martin are not married, she considers herself fully involved in their lives.
“I love those kids like my life depends on it. With all my heart,” she said, sharing how much they mean to her.
Johnson noted that growing up in a blended family of six siblings made her role feel natural.
“I think because I grew up in it, it’s come more naturally, but I wouldn’t have it any other way really. I really wouldn’t. I love it,” she said.
Following a report that Johnson and Martin had broken up, a representative for Johnson told that the rumors were false and that the couple “are happily together.”
