Dakota Johnson recently delved into various aspects of her life, shedding light on her relationship with Chris Martin and her dynamic with his children from his previous marriage to Gwyneth Paltrow.
Since 2017, Johnson and Martin have navigated the waters of their romance, emerging as a formidable couple within the Hollywood scene. While they tend to keep their personal lives private, Johnson hasn't shied away from acknowledging Martin's support during her bouts of depression.
In a candid interview with Bustle, Johnson opened up about her contemplation on motherhood. Despite Martin already being a father to Apple, 19, and Moses, 17, Johnson expressed her openness to the idea of having children, seeing it as a profound and magical journey. Reflecting on life's transient nature, she mused, "What a crazy, magical, wild experience... If that has to happen to me, I'm totally open to it."
Expounding on her existential musings, Johnson revealed her inner conflict, grappling with the enormity of existence amidst personal and global struggles. "There is a lot to eat, learn, grow, experience, and feel... Most days I feel like the most useless piece of shit," she candidly admitted, acknowledging the juxtaposition of her privileged position and the world's suffering.
Addressing her relationship with Martin's children, Johnson expressed genuine affection, stating, "I love those kids like my life depended on it. With all my heart." Despite not sharing biological ties, Johnson emphasized the depth of their bond, reflecting on her own upbringing within a diverse family dynamic.
Born to Melanie Griffith and Don Johnson, Johnson highlighted the significance of chosen family, asserting, "'The blood of the coven is heavier than the water of the womb.'" For Johnson, the connections forged with those chosen hold greater significance than biological bonds. Drawing from her own experience, she emphasized the strength of familial bonds transcending biological relationships, citing her siblings' diverse backgrounds yet unwavering bond as a testament to the power of chosen family.
In conclusion, Johnson reiterated the resilience and permanence of family, irrespective of trials and tribulations. "It doesn't matter how screwed up I am, or who's in rehab, or who's not talking to who, or who's divorcing who, we're family... It's really real," she affirmed, underscoring the enduring nature of familial connections, chosen or biological.
