Fans were left stunned last week when news broke that Dakota Johnson and Chris Martin had reportedly ended their eight-year-long relationship. While neither of them has confirmed the split, rumors of their breakup have been making the rounds online. But just when fans began to process the news, Chris Martin’s surprising move at a recent Coldplay concert left everyone scratching their heads.
During a Coldplay gig in Las Vegas, Martin gave a heartfelt shoutout to Dakota Johnson’s upcoming film Materialists. A video shared by Deuxmoi shows the Coldplay frontman mid-performance, pausing to tell the crowd, “Big love to everyone. Don’t forget to see Materialists. We love you.”
The brief yet warm gesture has now gone viral, leaving fans both emotional and confused. Was it just a supportive nod to his ex? Or is there more to the story?
Social media users weighed in with mixed emotions. One person tweeted, “You can break up with someone and still support their work. Look at him and Gwyneth.” Another chimed in, “If they really split, Chris is seriously ex-boyfriend goals. What a king!”
Adding to the mystery, Dakota Johnson recently appeared on Late Night With Seth Meyers, where she chose not to comment on the breakup rumors. Instead, she focused on promoting Materialists, directed by Celine Song. The star-studded cast includes Pedro Pascal, Chris Evans, Dasha Nekrasova, Louisa Jacobson, and Zoe Winters. The film, centered around a love triangle, is set to hit theatres on June 13, 2025.
Whether they’ve truly parted ways or are simply keeping things private, Chris Martin’s public support for Dakota has left fans hopeful—or at least deeply touched.
Stay tuned as we bring you more updates on both their personal and professional lives.
