How Dakota Johnson is REALLY doing after Chris Martin split
It's been three weeks since Dakota Johnson and her ex-fiancé Chris Martin reportedly ended their on/off seven-year relationship, and she's said to be 'doing well.'
At 48, the divorced father-of-two is 13 years older than the Materialists actress, and they were last pictured together as recent as May 19 taking a yoga class in Malibu near the six-bedroom mansion they bought for $12.5M in 2020.
'The split wasn't exactly a shock,' a source told People on Monday. 'They had the same issues for a while.'
Dakota evidently doesn't want to live with any regret, she 'wants to live her life very intentionally.'
'She loves all her creative projects and is excited about her career,' the insider continued.
'She believes there is more to life than work though. She wants a meaningful life on all levels.'

In 2013, Chris 'consciously uncoupled' with his ex-wife Gwyneth Paltrow after a decade of marriage and welcoming 19-year-old son Moses and 21-year-old daughter Apple.
'I love those kids like my life depends on it. With all my heart,' Johnson gushed to Bustle last year.
'I could watch [Martin perform] every day. I don't know how to explain it...I'm watching my most favorite being do his most favorite thing.'
In 2021, the seven-time Grammy winner reportedly penned his 2021 song My Universe about the Madame Web action star: 'In the night, I lie and look up at you / When the morning comes, I watch you rise / There's a paradise they couldn't capture / That bright infinity inside your eyes.'
Coldplay is next scheduled to bring their $1.26B-grossing, 225-date Music of the Spheres World Tour to Canada's Rogers Stadium in Toronto on July 7-8 and 11-12.
On Monday, Neon unveiled the first trailer for Dakota's next film Splitsville, which hits US theaters August 22 and everywhere else on September 5.
Johnson produces and stars as Julie in Michael Angelo Covino's couple-swapping unromantic comedy also starring Covino, Kyle Marvin, and Adria Arjona.
The cast and crew received a six-minute standing ovation when Splitsville had its world premiere at the Cannes Film Festival on May 19.
On August 15, UK audiences can finally catch the nepo baby of Don Johnson and Melanie Griffith as matchmaker Lucy in Celine Song's critically-acclaimed love triangle rom-com Materialists, which has earned $31.4M back from its $20M budget at the box office.
Dakota has been hard at work producing and starring as ghost author Lowen Ashleigh in Michael Showalter's big-screen adaptation of Colleen Hoover's 2018 novel Verity.
The psychological romance thriller - already scheduled to hit US theaters May 15, 2026 - will also star Anne Hathaway and Josh Hartnett.
Johnson has her 67-year-old mother to thank for her big-screen debut, at age nine, in stepdad Antonio Banderas' dismally-reviewed directorial debut Crazy in Alabama in 1999.
Before landing her breakout role in the Fifty Shades trilogy, the Independent Spirit Award winner first caught the industry's attention as a panty-clad Harvard University student Amelia in David Fincher's 2010 drama The Social Network.

Dax Shepard recalls the time he nearly beat up Eric Dane during an AA meeting
Dax Shepard told a funny story about Eric Dane while interviewing his fellow Alcoholics Anonymous buddy Brad Pitt on his seven-year-old Wondery podcast, Armchair Expert, on Monday. ' Eric Dane, who I now f***ing love, I have such a sweetness for him now,' the 50-year-old Idiocracy alum - who got sober again in 2020 - recalled. 'But when we first were around each other, it was not good.' It all went down between the pair during an AA meeting at a 'very nice house' owned by a man called 'Tom' in Bel-Air back in 2014 when the 52-year-old Grey's Anatomy alum suddenly 'threatened a dude' who was keeping time for the speakers. 'In the middle of the meeting, he goes, "If you hit that timer again, I'm gonna f***ing throw you in that candle,"' Dax stated. 'And I go, "That's it, motherf***er, let's go. Stand up, let's go outside." He stands up to go outside, and I'm gonna beat the f*** out of him in Tom's driveway at an AA meeting where we're coming for healing and understanding.' One year earlier, Eric relayed his version of the heated confrontation while appearing on Shepard's podcast, admitting he 'probably shouldn't have' brought the friend who would 'not stop droning on' during his share at that infamous meeting. 'Dax's friend, his sponsee actually who I didn't know, kept resetting this timer to like 15 seconds every time the guy would go over. The timer went off, like, seven times,' Dane recalled. 'I was not in the best space. Let's just say that. I may not even have been sober at the time. And this poor kid buzzes the buzzer one more time and I said, "If you buzz that buzzer one more time dude, I'm going to stick it up your a**."' At that, the Hello Bello co-founder corrected Eric that he actually threatened to throw the guy into a 'very expensive multi-wick candle burning in the middle' of the room. 'So we're outside and Dax is like, "What the f*** was that about man?!" And just as I'm about to open my mouth, our sponsor comes out and gets in between the middle of us,' Dane said. 'And I got to be honest with you, Dax probably would have [kicked my butt]. I mean, I can fight but Dax is a unit. This guy looks for fights!' The former rivals - who previously argued over a Ducati delivery - returned to the same meeting the next week with no issue, and the SAG Award winner started enjoying Dax's shares and came to really 'love' him. 'I've had some of my kind of favorite moments in sobriety calling you and then going over to your house and shooting the s*** and that's the crazy gift,' Shepard responded. 'Caring about someone and wanting someone to do well is a foreign feeling for me and I went from somehow seeing that you were an adversary that was going to attack me that I needed to fight to someone I deeply rooted for and wanted to win me too.' One year earlier, Eric (M) relayed his version of the heated confrontation while appearing on the Hello Bello co-founder's podcast, admitting he 'probably shouldn't have' brought the friend who would 'not stop droning on' during his share at that infamous meeting Last week, Eric revealed he's lost the function of his dominant right arm in the year since he was diagnosed with the incurable degenerative neurological disorder, amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS). '[My left arm] is going. I feel like maybe a couple, a few more months and I won't have my left hand either. Sobering. I'm worried about my legs,' Dane told Good Morning America 's Diane Sawyer. 'I'm very hopeful, yeah, I don't think this is the end of my story. I'm pretty resilient. I just don't feel, like in my heart, [that] this is the end of me.' The San Francisco-born silver fox is currently taking medication to slow the symptoms and he's also participating in a research study. 'I will fly to Germany and eat the head off a rattlesnake if [doctors] told me that that would help,' Eric vowed. 'I'll assume the risk.' On average, ALS patients live two to five years following their first symptoms, but FDA-approved medications and physical/speech therapies might slow down the progression of the disorder. Audiences can next catch Dane as Special Agent Nathan Blythe in Derek Haas' new 13-episode crime drama Countdown, which premieres June 25 on Amazon Prime Video. The Bad Boys: Ride or Die action star recently reprised his role as the closeted real estate agent Cal Jacobs in the third season of HBO hit show Euphoria, which is produced by and starring Zendaya as Ruby 'Rue' Bennett. Sam Levinson's drug-fueled drama will welcome newcomers Sharon Stone, Rosalía, Marshawn Lynch, and Kadeem Hardison in season three. On the personal front, Eric has two daughters - Billie, 15; and Georgia, 13 - from his marriage to wife Rebecca Gayheart, who dismissed her divorce petition in March following seven years of estrangement. Meanwhile, the Carvana paid partner hasn't had an acting gig since voicing Chad in three episodes of animated series Stoner Cats in 2022, and he hasn't acted onscreen since portraying Mike in ABC's Nebraska farm-set sitcom Bless This Mess in 2020. Dax's wife of 11 years, Kristen Bell, will next produce and reprise her role as agnostic podcaster Joanne in the second season of Erin Foster's critically-acclaimed rabbi rom-com, which premieres October 23 on Netflix. The Michigan-born couple - who began their romance in 2007 - are proud parents of 12-year-old daughter Lincoln and 10-year-old daughter Delta.

When the clip itself was posted on social media from Sunday's game, there were multiple comments about Huggins. View this post on Instagram A post shared by Old Row (@oldrowofficial) 'I thought I was the only one who saw her,' said one post from an admirier. Another read: 'Only part of the game I remember'. 'Only thing I saw in this video,' said another. The moment Huggins was caught on camera was a particularly decisive time as LSU knocked previously unbeaten Coastal ace Jacob Morrison out of the game with a four-run fourth inning. The Tigers won their second national title in three years Sunday with a 5-3 victory in the College World Series finals. The Tigers (53-15) completed a two-game sweep of the Chanticleers (56-13), who entered the finals on a 26-game win streak. The 2023 LSU team that also won that title was led by Paul Skenes and Dylan Crews, the top two picks in the MLB amateur draft that year. Skenes is now one of the most feared pitchers in Major League Baseball with the Pittsburgh Pirates and off the field, is famous for dating Olivia Dunne. Overall, Sunday's triumph was LSU's 8th baseball title in its history.

'I don't want to get into the details and I want to be sensitive to everyone involved,' she told fans. 'Obviously when you marry someone, you do it thinking that it is going to be forever and I blame no one but myself,' Tammy continued while breaking down in tears. 'I've made not the best choices when it comes to relationships. I'm good at putting on rose-coloured glasses. 'Obviously the worst part for me is that I have kids. I don't care about me, I know I will be okay but I feel awful.'
