American actress Dakota Johnson, 35, and English singer-songwriter Chris Martin, 48, have split, according to American magazine People.

They started dating in 2017, making their first public appearance in 2018, and were later reportedly engaged.

In August 2024, Johnson refuted break-up rumours, assuring they were “happily together”.

But one source told People: “It feels final this time.”

A few weeks ago, the couple were seen walking together in Malibu, United States where they share a home.

They were also pictured together taking a stroll in a park in Mumbai, India, back in January, when Coldplay performed their Music Of The Spheres World Tour at DY Patil Stadium.

During their eight-year relationship, Johnson developed strong ties with the British rock band frontman’s children – Apple and Moses – from his previous relationship with American actress Gwyneth Paltrow.

In a 2024 interview, Johnson had said: “I love those kids like my life depends on it. With all my heart.”

The Fifty Shades Of Grey (2015) star was seen on June 4 exiting The Greenwich Hotel in New York City without her engagement ring. – The Straits Times/Asia News Network
