Earlier today on CBS Sunday Morning, Coldplay frontman Chris Martin opened up about his marriage to Gwyneth Paltrow during an interview with host Anthony Mason.
Sounding decidedly grateful, the singer has been married to his actress wife for eight years and they have two children, Moses, 5 and Apple, 7.
Speaking for the first time publicly about his relationship, Martin said that his wife makes him feel like he is a huge winner. The two have rarely ever been photographed in public together.
The musician admitted that hooking up with Gwyneth was his one and only serious relationship. Mason pointed out the obvious, that having only one relationship is “quite a leap” to which Martin replied, “It’s a big leap? What, from being a loser to going out with an Oscar winner? It’s a giant leap. Lets face it, it’s like winning the lottery.”
How does marriage and family affect Chris? “It’s made me more focused. And you have a purpose. I like what it does. Just the idea of having to work hard so your kids are okay.”
