Coldplay frontman Chris Martin had an affair while married to Gwyneth Paltrow with an assistant after appearing on Saturday Night Live.
Was this the straw that broke the camels back and caused Gwyneth to call it quits? The split was said to be a “conscious uncoupling” according to Paltrow’s Goop website.
Remember last month, Gwyneth Paltrow took to her Goop website posted that she and Chris Martin has decided to split after 10 years of marriage. There have been rumors that the couple had an open marriage, and both had dalliances, the whole time, according to sources. There was NEVER confirmation on the reports.
CelebNMusic247.com has learned that NBC is now speaking about an incident that took place in 2011 when Martin was the musical guest on Saturday Night Live. Here is what PageSix is now saying about the incident since the celebrity couple has called it quits.
One source tells us the girl in question was an assistant on the show, while another NBC source explained, “He had an affair with a woman who was backstage and was part of an entourage. Everyone was talking about it because he was openly flirting with her at one of the show after-parties.”
While a rep for Martin didn’t get back to us, he has strongly denied other rumored affairs. Paltrow’s spokesman said, “I don’t rep Chris so I cannot address those accusations.” There were also reports that Martin romanced Kate Bosworth in 2009, which were denied by his rep.
Meanwhile, there have been rumors of Goop creator Paltrow’s own dalliances. She has been linked to Miami billionaire Jeff Soffer in 2008, after attending the reopening of his Fontainebleau hotel, as well as entertainment lawyer Kevin Yorn. Paltrow, Soffer and Yorn have all denied the rumors.
Paltrow’s spokesman added, “We have time and time again denied any romantic relationship with Jeff Soffer and Gwyneth. Your source is either wrong or fake.” He added, “We will no longer be addressing the insane rumors that have been started by gossips.”
Meanwhile, Paltrow and Martin have been focused on pulling off one of the most amicable splits in showbiz.
They embarked on a vacation together with family and friends as they released a statement on Paltrow Goop site withthe title ncoupling.”
