Gwyneth Paltrow gets honest about her marriage to Chris

Gwyneth Paltrow is finally opening up about her marriage to Coldplay singer Chris Martin. “It’s hard!” she said at the Bent on Learning gala she hosted in NYC on Feb. 25. “Nothing is as good as it looks. Life is complicated, and there are always issues to overcome. Yesterday, he went to Australia, and I came here; you have to accept that.”

The couple, who married in 2003 and have two children, Apple, 4, and Moses, 2, have been rumored to be on the brink of splitting for years. But Gwyneth, 36, maintains that she and Chris, 32, are “very good friends,” and that’s the glue that holds them together. “We’re brutally honest with each other,” she says. “Even if, God forbid, we weren’t together in 10 years or whatever, I think we’re like a family.” But there may be a big fight brewing because Chris is “going to kill me for talking about this,” says Gwyn.
