Let’s talk about love—and some unexpected twists. As Gwyneth Paltrow gears up to walk down the aisle with her fiancé, producer Brad Falchuk, she's keeping things interesting with a few unconventional ideas. According to sources close to the couple, Gwyneth has asked her ex-husband, Coldplay’s Chris Martin, to give her away. Now, that’s a bold move, right?
Why Chris Martin? A Family Affair
In a world where wedding traditions often revolve around fathers walking their daughters down the aisle, Gwyneth is flipping the script. Her dad, Bruce Paltrow, passed away in 2002, so she’s turning to the next best thing—Chris. “To outsiders, it might seem strange, but Brad is totally cool with it,” a source revealed. “Gwyneth doesn’t care what other people think.” And honestly, who could blame her? After all, she’s always been one to march to the beat of her own drum.
A Bond Stronger Than Divorce
Gwyneth and Chris may have "consciously uncoupled" four years ago after a decade-long marriage, but their bond remains unshakable. In fact, Gwyneth has described Chris as “like my brother.” The two have made it their mission to keep their family unit intact for the sake of their kids, Apple, 13, and Moses, 11. During an interview with Stephen Colbert, Gwyneth opened up about the challenges of divorce. “It was really painful and hard,” she admitted. “But our goal was to maintain a sense of family, even though we weren’t a couple anymore.”

Chris echoed similar sentiments in an interview with NME. “If you have kids and they start reading about their parents not getting along, that’s not healthy,” he explained. “We just wanted to maintain a friendship so there wouldn’t be any battles.” And it seems like their efforts have paid off. These days, Chris is still a regular presence in Gwyneth’s life. “He’s at my house every single day,” Gwyneth told InStyle. “We have our own lives, but we still have our family life. Chris would take a bullet for me, even though I’m not his wife anymore.”
Love Evolves, But So Does Family
For Gwyneth and Chris, divorce wasn’t the end of their story—it was just a new chapter. They’ve proven that love can evolve, even if it doesn’t look like the traditional fairy tale. As Gwyneth prepares to marry Brad, she’s embracing this philosophy wholeheartedly. “We’ve contributed something positive to the culture of divorce,” she said. “It was a tough time, but we tried to protect our children and our family. To me, this is a quiet way to handle it.”
And let’s be honest—Brad seems completely on board with this unique arrangement. “Brad is used to Chris being a part of their lives,” the source added. “He understands the importance of keeping the family dynamic strong.”
