Dakota Johnson Embraces New Beginnings Post-Split from Chris Martin: Focused on Career and Meaningful Life

Dakota Johnson, the talented actress known for her roles in films like The Materialists, is reportedly in good spirits following her recent split with longtime partner Chris Martin. The 35-year-old actress is said to be focusing on living with purpose and embracing her work, as evidenced by her recent promotion of her new film and upcoming project. According to sources close to Johnson, she is "doing well" nearly three weeks after the end of her nearly eight-year relationship with Martin. The pair were first linked in 2017 and were last photographed together on May 16 in Malibu, California. A source told People that the split was not a surprise, as they had been dealing with the same issues for some time. Despite the breakup, Johnson remains excited about her career and wants a meaningful life on all levels. She has recently been promoting her new film, which was released in theaters on June 13, and her next project, Splitsville, is set to premiere on August 22. Johnson attended the Materialists premiere in New York City on June 7, showing her dedication to her work and her love for the film industry. Martin, 48, was photographed in New York City with his 19-year-old son Moses and 21-year-old daughter Apple, both of whom he shares with his ex-wife Gwyneth Paltrow. In a March 2024 interview with Bustle, Johnson expressed her love for the children, saying "I love those kids like my life depends on it." She also admired Martin's musical performances, saying "I could watch him every day... I'm watching my most favorite being do his most favorite thing." Despite the breakup, it seems that both Johnson and Martin are moving forward in their respective lives. Johnson is focused on her work and embracing a meaningful life, while Martin is scheduled to continue touring with Coldplay. The two may have parted ways, but it's clear that they both continue to support each other's endeavors and remain close friends.
