Chris Martin and Dakota Johnson Break Up: Report – Hollywood Life
Chris Martin and Dakota Johnson have reportedly split after seven years together. According to a new report, the Coldplay vocalist, 47, and the Lost Daughter actress, 34, ended their engagement weeks after speculation over their relationship circulated online.
Daily Mail reported on Friday, August 16, that the pair separated due to busy schedules. Chris is currently in Munich, Germany, performing with Coldplay for their Music of the Spheres World Tour, and Dakota was recently spotted in Malibu.
“Chris and Dakota have tried desperately hard over the past few months to make their relationship work,” an insider told the outlet. “They’ll always have love for each other, but they’ve both come to the conclusion the relationship cannot be sustained long-term.”
While pointing out that Chris and Dakota are “both busy people” with “personal priorities, passions and work commitments,” the source claimed that their different lives “don’t naturally intertwine with each other.”

‘They wanted it to work but it just hasn’t, and they’ve now accepted it is best to move on,” the insider concluded.
Neither Chris nor Dakota has publicly reacted to the report. The duo had been dating since 2017.
Throughout their romance, the “Sky Full of Stars” singer and the How to Be Single star kept their personal life together away from the spotlight. Over the years, however, Dakota was seen cheering on Chris at his concerts.
The breakup news comes nearly five months after the Fifty Shades of Grey actress made a rare comment about being a stepmom to Chris’ children, Apple and Moses. The “Fix You” artist shares his kids with ex-wife Gwyneth Paltrow.
“I love those kids like my life depends on it. With all my heart,” Dakota told Bustle in an interview that was published on March 5. She also seemingly called Moses her “stepson.”
Dakota also pointed out that she enjoyed seeing Chris in his element on stage, adding, “I love me a musician.”
“I love watching him,” she gushed. “I could watch him every day. I don’t know how to explain it. I feel like, I don’t know. I’m watching my most favorite do his most favorite thing.”
That month, reports surfaced about Chris and Dakota’s long-term engagement. Although neither of them publicly responded, multiple outlets reported that they had been engaged for a while.
