In an interview with CBS Sunday Morning, Chris Martin compares his marriage with Gwyneth Paltrow to "winning the lottery." Chris also reveals that this was his first serious relationship. The couple is extremely private when it comes to their personal life and most importantly their marriage. (They did not even have any guests at their secret wedding ceremony!). In honor of the couple sharing some insight to their happy marriage, let's check out the details of their relationship.
- Gwyneth met Chris backstage at a Coldplay concert in October 2002.
- On December 5, 2003, the couple obtained their marriage license at the Santa Barbara Courthouse and then exchanged vows in Montecito, CA.
- At the time Gwyneth was pregnant with their first child, Apple who is now 7 years old.
- The couple left in the middle of the night for the airport to take a private jet to Cabo San Lucas for their honeymoon.
- In 2006 the couple welcomed their second baby, Moses. Their son was named after the song "Moses" that Chris wrote for her.
The story of their relationship makes me believe that their obsession with remaining private and out of the spotlight has contributed to the strength of their marriage. Do you agree?
