Your support makes all the difference.Gwyneth Paltrow has revealed she doesn’t live with her husband of seven months, Glee co-creator Brad Falchuk – at least not full-time.
In fact, the two spend just four nights a week together at the Goop founder’s home.
For the remaining three nights, Falchuk sleeps at his own house with his children, Brody and Isabella, who he had with his first wife, producer Suzanne Bukinik.
Speaking to The Sunday Times’ Style, Paltrow explained the setup works perfectly for the couple and is even a source of envy among her friends.
“Oh, all my married friends say that the way we live sounds ideal and we shouldn’t change a thing,” she said.
The 46-year-old added that the arrangement has won the approval of her intimacy teacher, Michaela Boehm, who praises the “polarity” it gives their relationship.
Paltrow and Falchuk famously went on a “family honeymoon” to the Maldives over Christmas to celebrate their nuptials. Both sets of children attended, along with Paltrow’s ex-husband, Chris Martin.
“Well, of course,” she told the publication of inviting Martin. “Chris is family and Brad and he, they’re like, totally friends.”
The Coldplay frontman brought his girlfriend of one year on the trip, 50 Shades of Grey star, Dakota Johnson, who Paltrow described as “a fantastic woman”, adding “I adore her”.
