How Chris Martin supported ex Dakota Johnson after their split
Chris Martin supported his ex-fiancee, Dakota Johnson, during one of his recent Las Vegas concerts, days after the couple reportedly split.
As the dad of two was closing out one of Coldplay's 'Music of the Spheres' world tour shows in Sin City over the weekend, he urged fans to support the actress' forthcoming romantic comedy, Materialists.
'Thank you so much, everybody. Be kind to yourself. Be kind to each other. Don't forget to see Materialists. We love you,' Martin, 48, said before exiting the stage, according to a video obtained by DeuxMoi.
In the upcoming film, which is set to be released on June 13, Johnson, 35, stars as Lucy, a young, ambitious New York City matchmaker who finds herself torn between the perfect match and her imperfect ex.
Martin's sweet shoutout comes days after news surfaced that he and the Fifty Shades of Grey actress had broken up after nearly eight years together.
A source told People that the break-up felt 'final this time.'
An insider told the US Sun that the pair called it quits because of their age gap and the topic of having children.
'They really tried to work through their issues but the age gap was often a problem. She'd [also] expressed that she may want children in the future, whereas Chris is kind of done with that part of his life,' the source told the outlet.
The insider told the outlet that Martin – who shares kids Apple, 21, and Moses, 19, with ex-wife Gwyneth Paltrow – and Johnson had been 'back and forth on issues for years' and had discussions about everything.
The Hymn for the Weekend singer and the Madame Web star began dating in 2017, three years after Martin separated from the Goop founder, 52.
Though they were rumoured to have called it quits in June 2019, Johnson was spotted with a massive emerald ring on that finger the following December.
An insider told Page Six last March that the pair had actually been engaged for six years.

Tyra Banks makes shocking confession about ‘disgusting and erotic' addiction
Tyra Banks knows how to pick 'em. The supermodel revealed her 'disgusting and erotic' habit of popping pimples and picking dirt from other people's toes during Thursday's episode of US show Today With Jenna & Friends. 'I like to pick. I like the toe, and if it has some stuff in it, I don't mind digging it out,' Banks, who is co-hosting this week, told Jenna Bush Hager. 'But I have a kit. You have to have a kit. Some alcohol, you know. Some stuff!' When Bush Hager asked who she targets with these rituals, the America's Next Top Model alum admitted that anyone in her household is fair game, reports Page Six. 'Anyone that wants it — my mum, my friends, my man, my son,' Banks confessed, referencing her beau, Louis Bélanger-Martin. 'And then, a pimple? If you had a pimple, I would be staring at you.' Banks labelled her 'addiction' as 'disgusting and erotic at the same time,' explaining, 'It touches those parts of me.' However, the TV personality, 51, does have her limits. 'Nether regions. I'm not picking up in those,' Banks said. 'If somebody's like, 'Oh, can you check this?' I'm like, 'No … that's where I draw the line.' Chest up and knees down? It's on. I'm not popping and picking nothing [outside of] there.' The model further grossed out Bush Hager as she explained that her foot-focused obsession can get quite stinky at times. 'The toenail, because there's been stuff in there. The jam. The toe jam is up in the nail, and then you pick, and sometimes it's different colours. Sometimes it's brown, sometimes it's green,' she described. Banks has been romantically linked to Canadian businessman Bélanger-Martin since August 2018. In November 2019, we exclusively reported that the pair was taking the next step in their relationship by moving in together. 'Tyra and Louis live together but Louis always moves around a lot for business reasons,' an insider told us, adding that he and his ex-wife, Valérie Martin Scraire, have an apartment in England, a house in Barbados, and a home in Magog, Quebec. 'Louis also spends some time with his own child in England and around the world for business,' said the source. 'Tyra's child has his own room at Louis [and] Valerie's house in Magog and Tyra moved some of her stuff — clothes, jewellery — there too.'

‘Womaniser': Katy Perry's pals fear new romance with Justin Trudeau
Friends of Katy Perry are thought to be concerned about the pop star rushing into a new romance following her split from Orlando Bloom. After being spotted together recently at dinner, things have reportedly been heating up between Perry and her new love interest, former Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau. While Perry appears to be enjoying getting to know Trudeau, an insider has revealed that her close pals are concerned about the speed at which their romance appears to be moving, especially so soon after her break-up. 'Katy's friends want her to have fun after her split from Orlando, but she's still very much grieving the end of their relationship and the fact that she never made it down the aisle,' an insider told The U.S. Sun. 'They don't want her to rush into something serious, and have heard Justin has a bit of a reputation as a womaniser, and that he loves the fame game. 'It is still a very new flirty friendship, but friends are hoping she takes it slow with the next person and chooses a man who loves her for her.' A second source also previously said: 'They have been wanting to have dinner for a while now, and he asked her if they could do it in Montreal, and she agreed to do so very quickly. 'He isn't shy about his romantic life, and he took her on a date, and he was very, very excited to do so, and kept talking about it in the last few days. 'Justin isn't a guy who is easy to 'catch' and he has been having a lot of women trying to date him since he separated from his wife. 'He is someone that has some particular preferences, and he enjoys people who are genuinely nice and that see life in their own way. 'Katy has her own 'world' and she is someone who is an extrovert, and she loves to talk about many different topics, and he really loves that.' The insider added that he is 'not scared of her being a superstar' as he is used to the spotlight. Meanwhile, the former politician appeared completely smitten as he looked up at Perry with a big smile spread across his face when he went to her concert earlier this week, accompanied by his teenage daughter.

History of Broadway
Greg Jenner is joined in 20th-Century New York by Dr Hannah Thuraisingam Robbins and comedian Desiree Burch to learn about the history of Broadway. Most of us are familiar with at least one Broadway musical, from classics like My Fair Lady and the Sound of Music to new favourites Hamilton and Wicked. In the last couple of decades, high-profile film adaptations of shows like Chicago, Cats and Les Misérables have brought musical theatre to a bigger audience than ever before. But whether or not you know your Rodgers & Hammerstein from your Lloyd Webber, the history of Broadway is perhaps more of a mystery. This episode explores all aspects of musical theatre, from its origins in the early years of the 20th Century, to the 'Golden Age' in the 50s and the rise of the megamusical in the 80s. Along the way, Greg and his guests learn about the racial and class dynamics of Broadway, uncover musical flops and triumphs, and find out exactly what 'cheating out' is.
