Chris Martin, the Coldplay musician, and actress Dakota Johnson have reportedly rekindled their romance. The couple, who began dating in 2017, were seen together at the Babulnath Temple in Mumbai, India, where Martin is currently touring. In a video shared by photographer Pallav Paliwal, they were captured descending the stairs of the temple, greeted by local fans. Johnson wore a blue headscarf, while Martin followed closely behind in a white jacket, surrounded by security personnel.
Past Breakups and Rumored Split
In August, rumors circulated that Martin and Johnson had split after dating for several years. The couple had reportedly ended their engagement after Johnson stopped wearing her engagement ring. They had previously faced challenges in their relationship, including a rumored breakup in 2019 due to differing views on starting a family. Despite the ups and downs, they seemed to have worked through their issues, with sources confirming they were back together in June 2021.

The couple had a relatively low-profile relationship, with their first public outing together in 2018 at the Stella McCartney Autumn Collection show. Johnson later confirmed her happiness in an interview with Tatler in 2018, though she remained tight-lipped about her relationship with Martin. In 2020, Martin’s ex-wife Gwyneth Paltrow spoke warmly about Johnson, revealing that she had become part of the family, even though their relationship was unconventional.
Engagement Rumors and Shared Life
Rumors of an engagement surfaced in December 2020 when Johnson was seen wearing a large emerald ring. By early 2021, they had moved into a shared home in Malibu, marking a new chapter in their relationship. Meanwhile, Coldplay’s tour continues to make headlines, with the band preparing for their biggest concert in India, set to be streamed live on January 26, 2025. Martin shared his excitement about performing in India, expressing his gratitude to the fans.
In addition to their upcoming concert in India, Coldplay will premiere a 44-minute visual film titled A Film For The Future on January 22, 2025. The film, created by over 150 visual artists from 45 countries, accompanies their chart-topping album Moon Music. The concert in Ahmedabad on January 25 and 26 will be broadcast globally, with behind-the-scenes footage available for fans to enjoy on Disney+ Hotstar.
