Gwyneth Paltrow's relationships, marriages and family

Gwyneth Paltrow is undeniably gorgeous, making her incredibly attractive to others. However, she hasn't had the easiest relationship trajectory, as the actress called off her engagement with Brad Pitt in 1997 after citing she was not ready for marriage. She later began dating Ben Affleck in October 1997, but that relationship of hers was short-lived, and they parted ways in 2000.

Things turned yellow for the actress when she met Chris Martin in 2002 backstage at one of Coldplay’s concerts, three weeks after her father Bruce's death. The duo got married in 2003 and stayed together for a decade, welcoming two children, Apple and Moses. Unfortunately, they separated in 2014. However, their divorce was finalized in July 2016. In an interview in 2019, the actress reflected on her relationship with her ex-husband and stated:

"Chris and I were meant to be together to have our kids, but our relationship works better now as friends, co-parents, and family."

Gwyneth started dating her now husband, TV producer, Brad Falchuk, in 2014 after meeting him on the set of Glee. They got married in September 2018. Reportedly, they had a very unorthodox honeymoon with her children, stepchildren, ex-husband, and new spouse.
