Gwyneth Paltrow, Chris Martin Reconciling? 'Consciously Uncoupled' Pair Cancel Divorce Plans
Gwyneth Paltrow and Chris Martin may be headed towards a reconciliation three months after their separation announcement.
The Hollywood couple shocked fans in March when they announced they had "consciously uncoupled," however, a new report claims that their marital woes may have brought them closer together. The actress, 41, and the Coldplay singer, 37, are reportedly still living together which has only fueled reconciliation rumors.
"It's true they had problems but in the weirdest way this 'conscious uncoupling' situation has relieved the pressure on them," an alleged friend of the couple told Daily Mirror U.K.

"Gwyneth had ground rules about not immediately dating, respecting each other, keeping things happy for their two children and communicating throughout but it seems to have acted as a wake-up call," the insider explained.
The estranged couple wed in 2003 one year after meeting at a Coldplay concert and while they appeared to be happily married throughout their 10 years together, they were dealing with marital woes behind closed doors. Friends are reportedly convinced that they will repair their marriage and ultimately call off their plans for divorce.
"Chris still lives with her, they are amazingly lovey-dovey together and she still wears her wedding ring," the source revealed. "They may have consciously uncoupled a few months ago – but they seem to be recoupling now. No one will be surprised if they get back together."
Paltrow and Martin, who hails from England, previously explained their decision to part ways in a joint statement posted on the actress' Goop lifestyle blog.
"We have been working hard for well over a year, some of it together, some of it separated, to see what might have been possible between us, and we have come to the conclusion that while we love each other very much we will remain separate," it went on before closing with "Love, Gwyneth & Chris."
The pair, who share two children, raised eyebrows when they used the unusual term "consciously uncoupling" to describe their separation. They vowed to remain on good terms for the sake of their children.
"We have always conducted our relationship privately, and we hope that as we consciously uncouple and co-parent, we will be able to continue in the same manner," their statement read.
