From age gap to children talk: 5 major reasons why Chris Martin and Dakota Johnson broke up after 8 years
Coldplay singer Chris Martin and 'Fifty Shades of Grey' actress Dakota Johnson's breakup news surfaced on the internet on Wednesday, and since that day, there have been various rumours about the reasons behind their breakup. Read more here.

Just days after Coldplay singer Chris Martin and Dakota Johnson's breakup news surfaced on social media, there are multiple revelations being made on what went wrong between the duo. Reports suggest Dakota and Chris have broken up for good after nearly eight years of being together.
The couple who have been in an on-and-off relationship for almost a decade have now parted ways and ended things, and it's for good, as per People Magazine.
On the other hand, an exclusive report by Katie Hind, Consultant Editor for Showbusiness at The Daily Mail, released on Friday, recounts a revealing evening spent with Coldplay singer.
Chris Martin felt uncomfortable among the celebrity royalty
In the exclusive report, the showbiz editor revealed that in a surprising moment at a star-studded gathering, journalist Katie observed Chris Martin dining with a group of global celebrities, casually sipping what appeared to be expensive red wine.
Amid this, what followed was quite unexpected, as Martin, seemingly out of place among the A-list celebrity group, approached her directly.
"After a few minutes, Chris, who appeared somewhat uncomfortable among such celebrity royalty, rose from his chair and moved a few steps towards me. What happened next astounded me," she quoted in the report.

She went on to mention that not only did he remember her name, but he also recalled their previous meeting in Lisbon and how warmly he introduced her to his then-partner, Gwyneth Paltrow, indicating a more personal and grounded side of the singer.
