Chris Martin and Dakota Johnson fuel separation rumors as they ‘barely’ spend time together

LOS ANGELES, CALIFORNIA: Dakota Johnson and Chris Martin's seven-year relationship is reportedly on the rocks.

The couple, once celebrated for their low-key but affectionate relationship, now find themselves at the center of speculation about their future.

Chris Martin and Dakota Johnson's relationship leaves everyone scratching their heads

According to insiders, Dakota Johnson, 35, and Chris Martin, 47, have been spending less time together, raising eyebrows among friends and fans alike.

Recently, the 'Chloe and Theo' actress was spotted looking downcast during an outing with friends in Los Angeles while Martin continues to tour with Coldplay.

“Their friends are genuinely scratching their heads, wondering why they’re avoiding spending any time together in public, even for a brief reunion between Chris’ shows,” a source revealed to Radar Online.

Despite announcing their engagement in March, rumors of a split surfaced just two months later.

These were fueled by a Coldplay fan who claimed Martin had told her he was "single" after offering her a ride.

However, Johnson's representative swiftly dismissed the rumors, stating, “The reports are not true. They are happily together.”

Sources close to the couple suggest the lack of visible affection and joint appearances has left even their closest friends concerned about the relationship’s longevity.

“How could people not assume that things are slowly fizzling out?” questioned an insider.

“They used to spend so much time together. Now they’re barely seeing each other.”

Although the couple previously addressed breakup rumors with a joint statement affirming their commitment, the dynamics since then have appeared strained.

"They’re like ships passing in the night,” the source explained.

The relationship, once considered rock solid, now faces challenges as Johnson and Martin navigate their busy schedules and increasingly separate lives.

“Everyone wants them to make it,” said the source.

“But there’s a feeling that if they can’t figure out a new arrangement that makes sense, it’s just not sustainable in the long term," the tipster added.
