Settlement Amount: Unknown
Sashaying through her life on and off the silver screen, Oscar-award winning actress Gwyneth Paltrow has always had a touch of glamour about her - an allure that exudes both onscreen charisma and some intriguing offscreen love chapters. Godmother to Steven Spielberg's kids, Oscar holder, and ironically, also the woman who famously coined the term "conscious uncoupling" as elegantly as a poet terminologies the break of dawn! Oh bless us, Lord Byron of Hollywood relationship admissions.
Let's remind ourselves of Gwyneth’s less exalted but somehow endearing romantic escapades in the field of matrimony. Paltrow and Cold Play's Chris Martin were an 'it' couple like none other, capturing hearts together until she brought us the iconic equation of 'divorce equals a conscious uncoupling'. A curious alternative, reminding us all that break-ups need not be breakupacolypse as displayed in reality TV, that even in name, they can be minty cool enlightened ones. We are (or at least should be) tracking the settlement amount in our gossip-o-meter but alas it remains unknown. Is it perhaps tucked away under a macrobiotic lettuce leaf somewhere in the vast expanse rich GOOP kingdom? The mystery continues.
On a side note, it is our queen Gwyneth herself who envisions a post-love dinner with ex-boyfriend/s in her no hard feelings manifest, wearing lavender-infused yoga pants perhaps. You may ask who won in Paltrow vs Martin? One glance at her luminous persona answers with a sparkling 'she did.' Both parties left unharmed... apart perhaps from a few misinterpreted unsolicited newsletter tips from the Goop empress. And so, let us holler in characteristic Paltrow style that for this next chapter, "bring it on!"
