In an exciting turn of events, it’s been reported that Coldplay’s frontman, Chris Martin, and Hollywood actress Dakota Johnson are engaged! According to Mirror Now, the couple has kept the news private for some time, but are now sharing their joy with close friends and family.
Sources close to the couple revealed, “The couple got engaged a while ago and have kept the news private. But now they are being open about it with their circles. They have been besotted with each other from day one so taking this next step was inevitable. They are in no rush to plan the wedding but are just enjoying making their commitment official.”
Moreover, the report mentions that Chris Martin’s ex-wife, Gwyneth Paltrow, has given her blessings to the couple. Paltrow shares children Apple and Moses with Martin, and their amicable relationship has been highlighted in recent years.
Interestingly, rumours of their engagement have been swirling for quite some time. Page Six reports that the celebrity couple has been engaged for six years, sparking curiosity about their plans. Dakota, known for her private dating life, added fuel to the fire when she was spotted wearing an emerald ring on her wedding ring finger during her 34th birthday celebration last year.
In a recent interview with Bustle, the 50 Shades of Grey actress opened up about her role as a stepmother figure to Chris Martin’s children. She even expresses her love and openness to the idea of motherhood. She said, “I love those kids like my life depends on it, with all my heart. How do I feel about motherhood? I’m so open to that. I’ve gotten to this place where I really want to experience everything life has to offer.”
Their love story began in 2017, a year after Chris Martin and Gwyneth Paltrow “consciously uncoupled,” and Dakota and Chris have been inseparable ever since. With news of their engagement, fans are eagerly awaiting updates on their wedding plans and future together.
