Gwyneth Paltrow talked about the dynamics of her relationship with her ex, Chris Martin, following their "conscious uncoupling" in 2014. Gracing the cover of Glamour magazine's latest issue, she reiterated that their kids are their No. 1 priority.
"Well, the ideal is to stay married," she said. "But if you can't stay married, wouldn't the ideal be that you could still be a family and you could put aside your own stuff long enough to explore - what is this new family and who am I in it?"
She went on, "And Chris is a great ex-husband 'cause he's a very, very willing partner in how to do that. We're constantly putting aside our own stuff and trying to reimagine something that we don't personally have an example for."
Gwyneth continued, "Well, if you have children together, number one is a dedication to what's best for the kids. We put a lot of thought into how to do it so that the damage would be minimized."
Despite the breakup, "we spend a lot of time together," the mother of two said. "He's been away for two weeks [promoting his album]. Last night he got in at midnight and slept here so he could surprise the kids in the morning, we could all have breakfast, and he could take them to school."
"So ... we're not living together, but he's more than welcome to be with us whenever he wants. And vice versa: I sleep in his house in Malibu a lot with the kids. We'll have a weekend all together; holidays, we're together. We're still very much a family, even though we don't have a romantic relationship. He's like my brother."
