Chris Martin leaves fans in frenzy after cryptic shout-out to Dakota Johnson on stage amid split
Chris Martin gave his fans a bit of a shock on Friday night when he ended the Coldplay show in Las Vegas with a shout-out to his supposed ex, Dakota Johnson. The singer, 48, who was with the actress, 35, for some eight years, have reportedly got their separate ways after eight years together. 'Thank you so much everybody,' the Paradise singer said to the sold-out crowd at Allegiant Stadium, before unexpectedly referencing Johnson's latest film. 'Be kind to yourself, be kind to each other,' he admonished before adding, 'Don't forget to see Materialists! We love you!' in video shared by Deuxmoi. While the person who shot the video seemed to think the promotion meant 'THEYRE NOT BROKEN UP,' others disagreed. 'I can totally seeing him supporting her even after the break up,' another stated. 'You can breakup with someone and still be supportive. Look at him and GP,' said one fan, referring to the hitmaker's successful relationship with ex-wife Gwyneth Paltrow. View this post on Instagram A post shared by curators of pop culture (@deuxmoi) 'I mean didn't he help pioneer conscious uncoupling?' asked a fan, referring to the way Martin and Paltrow formally parted in 2014, although their divorce was not finalized until two years later. One fan pointed out this wasn't the first time Martin had promoted the Materialists. 'He did this after the Stanford shows too,' they explained. Martin and Johnson began seeing each other in 2017, but the intensely private couple did not confirm they were in a relationship until some time later. Reps for the pair have not officially confirmed their split. Materialists, Johnson's new romantic comedy, will open in theaters June 13. The romcom puts Johnson's matchmaker in the enviable position of having to choose between leading men Chris Evans and Pedro Pascal. 'I really love a rom-com if it feels like I can connect to the people in it,' she told Variety. The romcom puts Johnson's matchmaker in the enviable position of having to choose between leading men Chris Evans and Pedro Pascal Materialists is her first in that genre since 2016's How to be Single. 'I think I've found it hard to connect to the people in some of the ones that I've been offered,' she explained about her absence from the genre. Johnson revealed she said 'yes' to Materialists because of 'the complexities of all of the characters. The paradox.' She was drawn to the idea of 'Everyone being confused about what the f**k they're supposed to do with their hearts. And what's the right move? I found that very honest and I found it just so relatable.'

'I've had to be disciplined to make sure I get six to eight hours [sleep] because my voice is my everything so I kind of live like a hermit. I don't do much, I just drink a lot of water.' The former rugby player popped the question during their holiday in Portugal back in July 2023. Taking to Instagram to share the special moment at the time she captioned her post: 'I said yes,' along with a ring emoji. The snaps showed the moment Thom got down on one knee with the ring, and the moment they embraced after she said yes. Struggling to hide her shock as Thom got down on one knee, Nicole stunned in a blue and white paisley dress for the memorable moment. Nicole first met ex-Glasgow Warriors rugby league player Thom when she was a judge on a celebrity edition of the X Factor in 2019 - and they soon hit it off. Back in 2022 a friend of the couple told The Daily Mail's Richard Eden that the pair would definitely be getting married, with Thom knowing Nicole was 'the one' since they met. Thom said: 'Within the first couple of days with Nicole it was just awesome, and it has been awesome ever since.'

While Thom's former girlfriends include model and actress Kelly Brook - who herself is set to wed boyfriend Jeremy Parisi 'in the coming weeks'. But the pair have now found the one they plan to spend the rest of their lives with. In 2021, Thom opened up on his relationship with Nicole, telling how he was 'massively punching above my weight!' and exclaimed: 'I've hit the jackpot'. Speaking to The Sun, Thom made it very clear that he feels lucky to be with Nicole as he explained: 'Nobody is asking Nicole how she got with me because I'm massively punching (above my weight). She's so easy and fun to be around. I've hit the jackpot.' He explained: 'It wasn't even in my thought process to try it on with Nicole because it would have been unprofessional and she's so lovely and stunning in every possible way. I was just like, "She's out of my league". The former Scottish international rugby union player went on to say that it was his grandmother who inspired him to 'pluck up the courage' and talk to Nicole as he recalled her motto: 'If you don't ask, you don't get'. Thom reflected that he rejected the idea of sliding into the pop star's DMs as he didn't think it was the 'done thing' and would be 'awkward', but instead felt it was right to have an old fashioned face-to-face conversation. He added that he's 'really grateful' that their relationship began 'naturally' during their 'intimate first meeting', with the hunk insisting he's 'never looked back'.
