Sources close to the couple indicate that this was, in fact, an amicable breakup, where both Dakota and Chris are going to pursue their careers as they go their separate ways. Chris is claimed to be touring Europe with his band mates of Coldplay while Dakota is staying stateside promoting her latest film, Materialists. The long-distance nature of the relationship, coupled with extensive schedules, likely contributed to the decision to end things.
Though much of their relationship had been private, family members and even his ex-wife, Gwyneth Paltrow, had been very open in their support. Indeed, Gwyneth gave her seal of approval to the union, having remained close to Chris with whom she shares two children. Indeed, Dakota seemed to get on well with his children and even showed a willingness towards being a mother. This further sealed her relationship with Chris’s family. Following the breakup, Dakota and Chris have seemed to gracefully come to terms with it. Both keep working tirelessly on their projects while taking time to focus on themselves, showing that even if this isn’t a love story, deep care and respect remain.
