Gwyneth Paltrow and Madonna’s friendship “breaking point” is revealed in a forthcoming book about the Goop founder, titled “Gwyneth: The Biography.”
The book by author Amy Odell, which is scheduled for release on July 29, claims that tensions in the relationship intensified when Madonna unexpectedly arrived at an island where Gwyneth Paltrow and Chris Martin were on holiday, according to People.
“Madonna seemed to know that Gwyneth would be there, which Gwyneth seemed to find strange,” a friend told the writer.
According to Odell, the “Material Girl” songstress, 66, insisted that the couple, who were married from 2003 to 2016, join her for dinner.
At the dinner table, Madonna allegedly “went off on her daughter Lourdes,” making Paltrow, 52, and Martin, 48, “disgusted by [her] behavior.”
“I can’t be around this woman anymore,” the Coldplay frontman allegedly told his then-wife. “She’s awful.”
The “Iron Man” star allegedly agreed with Martin and cut ties with Madonna.
Reps for the trio weren’t immediately available to Page Six for comment.
Paltrow and the “Popular” artist first became friends in the 1990s, with both often speaking highly of each other in public, right up until their alleged falling out.
In a 2006 interview with Us Weekly, Paltrow mentioned, “Everything I have experienced, she has faced on a much greater scale and for a longer period. She gives me great advice on setting boundaries and looking after myself.”
In 2009, an insider told Page Six that the Marvel star was moving away from her relationship and spending more time on double dates with Jay-Z and Beyoncé.
“Gwyneth’s kids call him ‘Uncle Jay,’ and she and Chris were special guests at Jay-Z’s wedding,” an insider told us, referring to Paltrow and Martin’s children: Apple, 21, and Moses, 19.
In 2010, a source told Us Weekly that Madonna and Paltrow “don’t speak” anymore, though no further details were disclosed.
That same year, the actress confirmed via an interview that her personal trainer, Tracy Anderson, no longer worked with Madonna.
They haven’t been photographed together since.
