The source added that Martin and Gwyneth focus on ‘putting their children first despite things not having worked out between them’
‘Family structure can be reinvented and divorce doesn’t have to be devastating,’ Paltrow told The Evening Standard in 2019.
‘It doesn’t have to be the end of your relationship with somebody. I think Chris and I were meant to be together and have our kids.
‘But our relationship is much better like this: friends and coparents and family,’ she said.
‘Chris is a very close friend,’ she said at the time. ‘I see him every day, I talk to him every day.
‘And it was very difficult, but I think you see in the children that they got through it, so I am proud of us, I really am. We kept to our commitment that we would put the children first.’

‘Happy 17th birthday to the boy that fills my soul up every time I look at him. @mosesmartin you are the most exceptional, kind, loving human being,’ Gwyneth wrote on Instagram
Martin and Gwyneth are so close that she invited him and Dakota on her honeymoon with Falchuk in 2018.
‘He’s completely my family, and I love him,’ she gushed of her former spouse to CBS Mornings in 2022.’
‘And he would do anything for me. I would do anything for him. He would do anything for our kids.
She added: ‘We really did commit to wanting our children to be as unscathed by the divorce as possible.’
Now that both of their kids are in college and they are officially empty nesters, Gwyneth decided to sell the home the kids grew up in.
The Talented Mr. Ripley star, 52, originally put her lavish 8,000 sq. home up for sale for $29.99 million, before lowering the price to $24.9 million last October.

Apple is currently a junior at Vanderbilt University in Nashville, Tennessee. She is a member of the Kappa Kappa Gamma sorority.
Moses, meanwhile, is a freshman at Brown University in Providence, Rhode Island.
