Dakota Johnson's Rep Shuts Down Rumors She and Chris Martin Called Off Their Engagement
It seems Dakota Johnson might be saying "I do" to Chris Martin after all!
The longtime lovers apparently haven't called it quits on their plans to marry, as the Fifty Shades of Grey star's rep shut down split rumors hours after a separate source claimed Johnson, 47, and Martin, 34, ended their engagement seven years after the A-listers first started dating in 2017.
"The reports are not true," Johnson’s rep insisted to a news publication. "They are happily together."
The update came in response to a Daily Mail article alleging the couple was going their separate ways.
The Coldplay band member — who is believed to have proposed to the award-winning actress at some point in 2020 — and Johnson "have now accepted the relationship is over — and it’s best to move on," the DM insider spilled to a news publication in a report released on Friday, August 14.
A rep for Johnson later denied the news, however, eyebrows remained raised as the Madame Web actress has notably not been seen with the "Viva La Vida" singer during the European leg of Coldplay’s Music of the Spheres tour.
While Johnson did show support at the band's Glastonbury set in June, she further fueled split rumors by emerging in Malibu, Calif., without her emerald engagement ring earlier this month.
This was the first time she was photographed without the stunning jewelry item since 2020.
Martin’s romance with Johnson came roughly two years after he finalized his divorce from Gwyneth Paltrow — whom he married in 2003 before welcoming their daughter, Apple, 20, and son, Moses, 18.
The "A Sky Full of Stars" hitmaker reportedly split from Johnson briefly in 2019 due to Martin pushing for more children and the Am I OK? star wanting to focus on her career, however, they later reconciled.

Johnson and Martin kept their relationship rather private, though the brunette bombshell wasn't shy to thank her fiancé for "pulling [her] out of" a dark place while opening up about her depression in November 2023.
During a 2021 interview with Elle, Johnson confirmed she and Martin had "been together for quite a while."

"We go out sometimes, but we both work so much that it’s nice to be at home and be cosy and private," she explained at the time. "Most of the partying takes place inside my house."
Martin also has a strong bond with Paltrow, as well as the Goop founder and Martin's children.
"I love those kids like my life depends on it. With all my heart," Dakota declared back in March while speaking to Bustle.
She mentioned: "I grew up in a family that was so big, and I just believe in the saying 'Blood is thicker than water.' 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."
