Meanwhile, Chris Martin appears to be moving forward as well. Reports indicate that the musician has been spending time with ‘Game of Thrones’ star Sophie Turner.

According to ‘Page Six’, Chris and Sophie have gone on “a few dates” in London. A source described their connection as having “a lot of chemistry” and a “definite spark” adding that they share common interests, including music, and have bonded over their British roots.

The two celebrities reportedly knew each other years ago back when Sophie was still with singer Joe Jonas. “It was always friendly,” the source said. “Sophie has always admired Chris and was a big fan of both him and his music long before they ever met.”

Sophie Turner recently ended her two-year relationship with Peregrine Pearson in late September 2025 following her divorce from Joe Jonas. The timing has fueled speculation about her budding connection with Martin though insiders say it is still in the very early stages.
