Chris Martin's Emotional Moment During This Song May Show How He's Handling the Dakota Johnson Split
Dakota Johnson and Chris Martin's breakup has been on everyone's minds since the news broke. While we're still devastated at the end of one of our favorite celebrity couples, it seems we may not be the only ones. In a recent clip of Martin performing, he's gotten fans misty-eyed, and so many are now wondering how the breakup has affected him. On June 19, the popular X account PopTingz shared a video from Coldplay's latest gig. They shared the video of Martin with the caption reading, 'During 'Sparks,' Chris Martin gets emotional, adding 'yes I will' after 'I won't let you down.'' More from SheKnows Chris Martin Just Wore a Telling Accessory Amid First Outing Since Dakota Johnson Split You can see the video HERE! Now, first things first: he didn't add anything. Per Genius, the lyrics in that part of the song go: 'But I won't let you down/ Oh, yeah, I will, yeah, I will, yes, I will.' So, no, he didn't add anything new to the song, but we can admit one thing: he does look more visibly emotional than other times he's sung this song live. 'Sparks' is one of Coldplay's most well-known songs, and it was a track from the band's debut album Parachutes, which was released in 2000. The song is about 'someone who tries to get someone to remember them again,' according to Genius. Now, Martin is an emotional performer, but the timing of this after his breakup from Johnson, plus how visibly emotional he looked while performing, has made people wonder how he's handling the breakup. Along with that, his previous outing with an accessory meaning 'freedom,' has got speculation brewing on how he's handling it all behind closed doors. For those who don't know, Johnson and Martin started dating in 2017 after being set up by mutual friends. They didn't confirm their relationship until a year later, but then, there was a rumor that they briefly broke up in the summer of 2019. However, they quickly reconciled, and they moved in together in 2021. While we don't know the exact time they got engaged, many sources claim it was years ago, but the two weren't too eager to set a date. But the engagement became public at the beginning of 2025. Sadly, Martin and Johnson seemingly called it quits for good in June 2025. A source spoke to The Sun about what led to their recent breakup, saying, 'They really tried to work through their issues but the age gap was often a problem and she'd expressed that she may want children in the future, whereas Chris is kind of done with that part of his life but they discussed it.'Best of SheKnows 23 Age-Gap Couples Who Met When One of Them Was Still a Child Everything to Know About Leonardo DiCaprio's 27-Year-Old GF Vittoria Ceretti A Look Back at Prince William's Sexiest Photos in Celebration of the Future King

DDG fires back at critic during Father's Day post amid custody battle with Halle Bailey
Rapper DDG responded to online backlash over a Father's Day tweet, amid his ongoing legal conflict with singer and actress Halle Bailey regarding their son, Halo Saint. On June 15, DDG (Darryl Dwayne Granberry Jr.) tweeted, 'Happy Father's Day to all the active dads worldwide.' A pop culture page, Pop Tingz, sarcastically quoted the post with, 'So not you?' DDG fired back, calling the critic 'irrelevant,' adding, 'I can cashapp you the worth of this page… I support the LGBT community.' The exchange sparked mixed reactions online, with some siding with Pop Tingz and criticizing DDG's response. The rapper and Bailey, who began dating in 2022 and welcomed their son in December 2023, announced their separation in 2024 and have since been embroiled in multiple legal disputes over parenting rights. Earlier this year, Bailey filed for a restraining order, alleging that DDG's behavior—such as false accusations and inflammatory livestreams—had led to online harassment. According to TMZ, she claimed his actions posed an 'imminent emotional and psychological risk' to their child. A Los Angeles court granted her a 100-day restraining order in May. In June 2025, DDG filed for his own restraining order, also requesting the court prevent Bailey from taking their son abroad, specifically to Italy. He alleged that her emotional instability could negatively impact Halo. According to Hot New Hip Hop, the court granted a partial protective order to DDG but found insufficient evidence to block Bailey's travel or custody rights. The order includes measures to prevent emotional abuse and permits third-party mediation in custody arrangements.
