Gwyneth Paltrow
and Chris Martin‘s marriage
is safe and strong,
according to the Oscar
winner’s close pal,
chef Mario Batali,
WENN reports December 13th.
.
Paltrow has been spotted partying
in the US with pal Madonna,
while Martin tours the UK
with his band Coldplay,
prompting rumours their five
year marriage is in trouble.
.
Reports this week even suggested
the couple planned to spend
Christmas together in London
in a bid to save their relationship.
.
But Batali,
who shot a TV cookery show with
the actress in Spain this summer,
insists there’s no truth to the rumours.
.
He tells OK! magazine,
“Not true.
I see them all the time.
I don’t think they’re having problems.”
.
Batali adds the pair’s kids Apple
and Moses help to keep their
marriage strong.
.
He says,
“If you meet their kids,
their kids are cool.
And their kids have the fascination
with new and open-eyed experiences.
They’re delightful.
Which means they’re being taken
care of at home by their parents.
.
That’s the key.
They’re really stay-at-home parents
in a way that only rock stars
and Academy Award winning
actors can be.
.
They’ve got a time to choose
when they work,
and they don’t have to work
all the time.”
