Chris Martin will "always see" Gwyneth Paltrow as a member of his family.
The 46-year-old rock star was married to Hollywood actress Gwyneth, 51, from 2003 until 2016 and has Apple, 19, as well as 17-year-old Moses with her but even though he is now in a long-term relationship with Dakota Johnson, 34, an insider has claimed that he will always be "very close" to his ex-wife as they continue to raise their children together.
A source told UsWeekly: "Chris couldn’t feel more grateful that he and Gwyneth have managed their co-parenting relationship so seamlessly. He still feels very close to Gwyneth, He will always look at her as family.
"[Chris] loves that Dakota and Gwyneth have grown close over the years and their friendship is a really beautiful thing to see."
Meanwhile, the Goop founder - who is now married to producer Brad Falchuk - explained that she now sees Coldplay frontman Chris as more of a "brother "to her than a romantic partner, although she will always be "grateful" to him for giving her her children.
Speaking on the 'Today' show, she said: "He's like my brother. You know, he's my family. I love him.
"And I'm so grateful to him for giving me these kids. It worked out well... You know, it really did, I have to say. I mean, it's funny. He was over here yesterday. And [Apple] came through and she's like, you know, she's taller than me now. We just looked at each other. We were like, 'How did this go by so quickly?'"
