Oscar-winning actress Gwyneth Paltrow and Coldplay frontman Chris Martin created a new phrase in 2014 when they chose to “consciously uncouple”.
But now, four years after their separation, the 45-year-old creator of Goop says her ex-husband Chris Martin has become “like a brother” to her.
“[It’s] very familial. It’s nice. Great,” she said on The Late Show with Stephen Colbert.
The couple, who finalised their divorce in July 2016 after 10 years of marriage, co-parent their children, 13-year-old daughter Apple and 11-year-old son Moses.
“Divorce is terrible. It was very painful and it was really hard but I think we genuinely wanted our kids to be as unscathed as possible,” Gwyneth said.
“We thought if we could really maintain the family, even though we weren’t a couple, that was the goal and that’s what we have tried to do.”
Listen: In case you missed it, Gwyneth Paltrow wants you to put coffee up your bum… yes, really.
Stephen Colbert also congratulated Gwyneth on her recent engagement to 46-year-old Glee creator Brad Falchuk.
The group are evidently a rather modern family; late last year, Gwyneth shared an Instagram post, showing Brad and Chris at brunch together with her.

God, how much more can she milk from this? It was four bloody years ago. Move on.
Right. Because divorce is such a non-event... Just throw a party and get over it already Gwyn! No different to breaking a nail or finding mound on your bread.
