Hollywood power couple Dakota Johnson and Chris Martin have reportedly ended their relationship after eight years of dating, leaving fans heartbroken and confused.
The Fifty Shades of Grey actress and Coldplay frontman began their romance back in 2017, sparking headlines when they were first seen dining at the popular Sushi Park in Los Angeles. Despite keeping their relationship relatively private over the years, the couple occasionally gave glimpses into their connection, leading many to believe they were headed toward a long-lasting future together.
Earlier this year, in March, the pair finally confirmed their quiet engagement, raising hopes among fans who had supported them for years. Johnson, 34, even showed support for Martin, 47, during Coldplay’s Head Full of Dreams tour, traveling all the way to Buenos Aires, Argentina, to attend one of his concerts.
However, news of their alleged breakup has taken many by surprise—especially after recent reports claimed the couple was doing well. A source close to the stars told E! News just months ago that breakup rumors were false and that the couple was “happily together.”

Now, fans are reacting strongly to the rumored split on social media. One commented, “Finally Dakota will be free. She deserves more and better.” Another wrote, “I don’t believe in love anymore,” reflecting the dismay felt across the internet.
Speculations surrounding what may have led to their split range from differing views on commitment to personal growth. One fan noted, “Was he ever going to propose? Maybe she wants a family.”
As of now, neither Johnson nor Martin has made an official statement regarding the breakup, leaving the public waiting for clarity.
