The rumors first emerged after a source claimed that Dakota Johnson and Chris Martin, who have been together for over seven years, had accepted that their relationship had ended.
Dakota Johnson strongly denies the rumors suggesting that she has broken up with Coldplay frontman Chris Martin.
Specifically, through Dakota Johnson’s representative via the Page Six website just hours after the rumors were published on Friday, she responded that “this is not true”.
How the breakup rumors surfaced
The rumors first appeared after a source claimed to the Daily Mail that the couple, who have been together for over seven years, “had accepted that their relationship has ended – and it is better for them to move forward with a final separation”.
The rumors also surfaced as the actress was absent from Coldplay’s sold-out European tour “Music of the Spheres”, which is set to conclude on September 2 in Dublin, Ireland.
The rumors were further fueled by the fact that the actress had not been wearing the engagement ring from the singer all summer. She was last seen supporting Martin and his band, Coldplay, at Glastonbury in June.
However, Dakota Johnson was last seen supporting Martin and his band in June when she attended the Glastonbury Festival in Somerset, England.
The couple began dating for the first time in 2017, three years after Martin’s split from his ex-wife. The singer has two children, Apple, 20, and Moses, 18.
Despite a brief separation in 2019, Chris Martin’s new relationship with Dakota Johnson has not been confirmed until today, but the two moved in together and sparked engagement rumors a year later.
However, she had missed all of his appearances for the European leg of his band’s tour. At that time, she was seen wearing a green engagement ring on her finger. However, an insider told us in March that the couple has indeed been engaged for the last six years. From the beginning of their relationship, they have remained quite private about their romance.
It is worth noting that the actress has been an active stepmother and has a good relationship with the singer’s children.
In March, Dakota Johnson spoke to Bustle about her role as a stepmom, saying:
“I love these kids, as my life depends on it. With all my heart. I grew up in a family that was so big and I just believe in the saying that blood is thicker than water.”
