Dakota Johnson vacations in Europe with Kate Hudson weeks after breakup with Chris Martin
Dakota Johnson appears to be embracing single life, enjoying a European getaway with longtime family friend Kate Hudson. The trip comes just weeks after news broke that Johnson and Coldplay frontman Chris Martin had ended their nearly eight-year relationship. The Materialists star was spotted dining in Rome with Hudson, entrepreneur Douglas Chabbott, and her agent Maha Dakhil. During the evening, Ricky Martin briefly stopped by to greet the group, despite dining at a separate venue nearby. Photo: Backgrid Days later, Johnson and Hudson were seen cruising off the coast of Ibiza, as captured in images published by People. The pair spent the day in bikinis, relaxing on a white float with a friend, swimming in the sea, and enjoying the Mediterranean sun. Photo: Backgrid Their connection extends beyond recent travels—Johnson and Hudson are daughters of close Hollywood peers, Melanie Griffith and Goldie Hawn, respectively. Their shared history adds a personal touch to the timing of the trip. The girls trip follows reports of Johnson's split from Martin. Though the couple had recently been photographed on a yoga date, rumours of tension had circulated earlier in the year, only to be dismissed at the time. Neither Johnson nor Martin has addressed the breakup publicly.

Liam Gallagher issues apology after backlash over racist tweet
Liam Gallagher has issued a public apology following intense backlash over a racially offensive tweet posted ahead of Oasis's upcoming concert in Seoul. The controversy erupted on July 1, when Gallagher tweeted the slur 'Ching-Chaeng-Chong,' a phrase widely condemned for mocking East Asian speech and features. Though the tweet was deleted shortly after it went live, screenshots rapidly spread across social media, triggering global criticism. The backlash was particularly strong among fans in South Korea, where Oasis is scheduled to perform as part of their worldwide reunion tour. With thousands expected to fill Goyang Stadium, the remark cast a shadow over what was meant to be a celebratory event. Many fans demanded accountability, with some threatening to boycott the show unless a formal apology was made. Gallagher has now broken his silence, taking to X (formerly Twitter) again to say: 'Sorry if I offended anyone with my tweet before it wasn't intentional you know I love you all and I do not discriminate. peace and love LG x.' Sorry if I offended anyone with my tweet before it wasn't intentional you know I love you all and I do not discriminate. peace and love LG x — Liam Gallagher (@liamgallagher) July 1, 2025 While the apology has received mixed reactions, some fans have welcomed the gesture, calling it a step in the right direction. Others argue the apology lacks sincerity, noting the vague wording and absence of direct acknowledgment of the harm caused. As of now, no additional comments have been made by Gallagher's team. Whether the apology will be enough to smooth things over before the Seoul concert remains to be seen — but for many, the incident has already left a lasting impression.
