Gwyneth Paltrow Admits Chris Martin ‘Pushed Himself’ To Remain Part Of New Family Unit

They have seemingly had the smoothest conscious uncoupling in showbiz history.

But Gwyneth Paltrow has confessed a lot of work has gone into her “co-creation” of a new family unit with ex-husband Chris Martin.

The 43-year-old actress and the Coldplay frontman, below, – who have children Apple, 11, and Moses, 10 together – split in March 2014 but she says they have remained “very close”.

She said: “I think we are better as friends than we were married. We are very close and supportive of one another.

“It hasn’t always been easy for us because you have good days and bad days as you do in life with anything, but I feel lucky because Chris has been willing to push himself for the sake of the kids and help me co-create this new family.

“It’s like we are still a family, but not a couple.”

Paltrow, enjoying happier times with Martin below, is now dating TV producer Brad Falchuk and has been having some “amazing” experiences.

Speaking about her new romance, she also told Australia’s Marie Claire magazine: “I don’t want to say too much, but I will say you just never know what is going to happen, what people you are going to meet, what amazing lessons you are going to learn.”

And the blonde hasn’t ruled out marrying again in the future.

She added: “I think marriage is a really beautiful and noble institution, but it is not like I am holding a goal of getting remarried.”
