Gwyneth Paltrow and Chris Martin to separate

TMZ has announced today that Gwyneth Paltrow and Chris Martin have separated, although the couple used what they must consider a more innocuous term: “conscious uncoupling.” Is there another kind? According to Paltrow, “It is with hearts full of sadness that we have decided to separate.”

Gwyneth Paltrow also acknowledges that the couple has been working for over a year together and apart to try to make the relationship work but ultimately, “we have come to the conclusion that while we love each other very much we will remain separate.” So while the truth may be sugar coated, it sounds like the couple is headed for divorce and not reconciliation.

So what happens to the kids and the house? According to TMZ Chris wanted to buy the couple’s Brentwood home, maybe for him and his band, but Gwyneth didn’t like that idea and supposedly killed the deal. The couple has not finalized a child custody agreement but suggest they remain committed to co-parenting their two children.
