Dakota Johnson and Chris Martin appear to be thriving in their relationship.

Five months following rampant speculation regarding a potential breakup, the enduring couple was seen joyfully strolling and holding hands in Mumbai, India, last Friday.

Johnson, 35, joined Martin, 47, in Mumbai ahead of his three scheduled performances for the Music of the Spheres World Tour with Coldplay. The acclaimed rock band has three sold-out concerts planned at DY Patil Stadium, a prominent multi-purpose sports arena in the country, between Saturday and Tuesday.

The duo seemed to be in high spirits, grinning and acknowledging the presence of photographers.

Their attire was casual yet stylish; the musician donned a long-sleeved gray Henley shirt paired with black trousers, complemented by white sneakers and a black baseball cap.

For her part, the “Fifty Shades of Grey” actress wore a form-fitting black tank dress, accentuated by a light blue shirt tied casually around her waist, along with black Nike sneakers and a baseball cap.

Initially rumored to have separated in August 2024 after seven years together, Johnson’s representative promptly dismissed the claims, affirming that the couple remained “happily together.” This assertion was further underscored when Johnson flaunted her striking emerald engagement ring while dining in Malibu, California, with actors Jeremy Allen White and Blake Lee.

Initially linked in 2017, the couple faced brief separation rumors in 2019, only to reignite engagement speculations by 2020. In March 2024, an insider privy to their relationship disclosed exclusively to Page Six that the pair had been engaged for an impressive six years.

As the daughter of accomplished actors Don Johnson and Melanie Griffith, Johnson has expressed her affection for Martin’s children—Apple, 20, and Moses, 18—whom he shares with his ex-wife, Gwyneth Paltrow. “I love those kids with my whole heart; they mean the world to me,” she remarked in an interview with Bustle in March 2024.

Moreover, Johnson herself has experienced the dynamics of blended families, having been a stepchild to actor Antonio Banderas, forging a strong connection despite his 2015 separation from Melanie.
