Chris Martin and Dakota Johnson are 'engaged'! Coldplay singer, 47, is 'set to wed' the actress, 34, after six years together - and has ex-wife Gwyneth Paltrow's blessing

Chris Martin and Dakota Johnson are 'engaged', it has been claimed.

The Coldplay singer, 47, proposed to the actress, 34, 'a while ago' and has the full blessing of his ex-wife Gwyneth Paltrow, 51, and their children Apple, 19, and Moses, 17. 

The couple have kept their romance private since they first began their relationship six years ago.

A source has now told The Mirror: 'The couple got engaged a while ago and have kept the news private. But now they are being open about it with their circles. 

'They have been besotted with each other from day one so taking this next step was inevitable. 

Chris Martin and Dakota Johnson are reportedly 'engaged' after six years together

'They are in no rush to plan the wedding but are just enjoying making their commitment official.' 

Dakota was also seen wearing an emerald green ring on her wedding finger at her 34th birthday in Los Angeles last October. 

MailOnline has contacted Chris and Dakota's representatives for comment. 

Chris and Dakota met through mutual friends and have 'never really left each other' since, the actress told Vanity Fair in June 2022.

They were first spotted together in 2017, the year after the musician's divorce from Oscar-winning actress Gwyneth.

However, it was not initially clear if the couple were dating, or just close.

In June 2019, the pair had a wobble, rumoured to be a result of the Coldplay frontman pushing for them to have children.

This was a leap Dakota, in her professional prime, was reportedly not willing to take. However, before summer was up, they were back together.

They will be extra glad for that having seemingly got matching infinity sign tattoos in 2018.

Dakota has recently said she loves Chris and Gwyneth's two children 'like my life depends on it'.

In an interview with Bustle , the actress, 34, opened up about being a stepmom to Apple, 19, and Moses, 17, the teenage children Coldplay singer Chris shares with Gwyneth.

She also revealed she was 'open' to having children of her own if it was 'meant' to be.

'I love those kids like my life depends on it. With all my heart,' Dakota said of Apple and Moses.

As a member of a large blended family herself, Dakota - who was recently spotted in Malibu - has learned to embrace connections that aren't blood-related.

When the reporter brought up a photo Gwyneth posted of her and Dakota, she said: 'I grew up in a family that was so big, and I just believe in the saying “Blood is thicker than water,"' she explained.

'The actual saying is “The blood of the covenant is thicker than the water of the womb,” which means that the connections with people you choose are more solid than the connections to the people you’re actually born to.'

Dakota's parents are actors Melanie Griffith and Don Johnson. They both split, with Don marrying Kelley Phleger in 1999 and Melanie tying the knot with Antonio Banderas in 1996. They divorced in 2015.

Now, Dakota is open to having children of her own.

'I’m so open to that. I’ve gotten to this place where I really want to experience everything that life has to offer. And especially being a woman, I’m like, What a magical f*cking thing to do. 

'What a crazy, magical, wild experience. If that’s meant to happen for me, I’m totally down for it. I’ve been really tripping out recently like, we’re not here for very long.

'There’s so much to eat up and learn and grow from and experience and feel. That includes all the pain and the suffering and feeling so helpless about the world. Most days I feel like the most useless piece of sh*t.

'I’m sitting in this dumb*ss chair, talking about this dumb*ss movie, and there are people in excruciating catastrophes, and what can I do? I do have that incredible friction in myself. 

'And then I’m like, "We’re not here for very long, so if I’m meant to be a mother, bring it on". '

The actress has been dating Coldplay frontman Chris since 2017 but watching him perform on stage never gets old.

'I love watching him. I could watch him every day. I don’t know how to explain it. I feel like, I don’t know... I’m watching my most favorite being do his most favorite thing,' she explained.

The couple have lived together in a multi-million Malibu beach-house for some years now.

The singer is into his surfing, and the actress likes to swim, making this a perfect location.

Dakota also enjoys whizzing around the area in a 1965 Mustang bought for her as a birthday present by her partner.

They support each other professionally, with Dakota appearing at Chris' gigs, and Chris at Dakota's premieres.

In June 2023, the vocalist even serenaded his girlfriend at his band's visit to Naples.

They have even worked together once, with Dakota the director of Coldplay's 2020 music video for the song Cry Cry Cry.
