Dakota Johnson reveals her major relationship ‘red flag’ amid Chris Martin split

The pair reportedly split in June

Dakota Johnson has revealed her biggest relationship ick, amidst her split from Coldplay's Chris Martin.

Johnson and Martin began dating back in 2017 and were on and off for eight years, before reportedly calling it quits for the last time in June this year.

According to PEOPLE, the pair were even engaged during their time together, but have parted ways, with a source telling the publication: "It feels final this time."

While the pair kept their relationship pretty private, Johnson did open up to ELLE in 2021, where she said: "We’ve been together for quite a while, and we go out sometimes, but we both work so much that it’s nice to be at home and be cozy and private."

It seems that Martin's ex, Gwyneth Paltrow, had a great relationship with Johnson, too.

Paltrow told Harper's Bazaar in 2020 that she 'adores' the actress.

“I just adore her,” she said.

“I always start to think of the ampersand sign — what else can you bring in, instead of being resistant to or being made insecure by? There's so much juice in leaning in to something like that.”

Amidst the split, the 36-year-old has spoken about one relationship red flag that's a huge no-no for her.

“Men who wear flip-flops in public. Run,” she said in a video Q&A with Vogue Germany.

While there's no photo evidence of Martin ever wearing flip flops out and about, he does often like to go barefoot.

In an earlier interview from this year, while promoting her movie, Materialists, Johnson also spoke about another red flag that she tries to avoid.

“Like, not an a**hole?” she told Craig Melvin on the Today show.

“That’s concise!” Johnson’s co-star Chris Evans said during the same interview. “There it is. Nail on the head.”

During the promo for the movie this summer, Johnson also spoke about her views on relationships, in an interview with The Los Angeles Times.

"For a long time we’ve all been so quick to judge relationships or how they should happen, how they should exist in the world. When people should get married. Divorce is bad. All these things that actually, if you think about it, why is divorce bad?" she said.

"Why do people have to get married or at a certain age or only once? Why? It doesn’t matter."

Neither Johnson nor Martin have officially spoken about the break-up.
