Chris Martin and Dakota Johnson pictured together for the first time on a dinner date in Malibu
CHRIS Martin and Dakota Johnson have been pictured together for the first time as they enjoyed a dinner date in Malibu.
The Coldplay frontman, 40, and the Fifty Shades Of Grey star, 28, were first linked back in October and now they've been snapped enjoying a romantic date.
The pair have previously been seen in Paris and on holiday in Israel and now they're enjoying dates on home turf as as their relationship heats up.
Chris and Dakota were all smiles as they arrived at the luxurious Soho House in Malibu together.
The couple drove to the celeb hotspot in Chris' jeep and she tried to hide her face from waiting photographers.
They reportedly had dinner at the private members club before returning to Chris' luxury pad.
Dakota looked chic in black jeans, a stylish Isabel Marant jumper and a black coat.
Chris went for a similarly casual look in dark jeans, a black long sleeved top and kept warm with an oversized grey scarf and matching beanie.
Chris - who was most recently linked to 21-year-old Dua Lipa after breaking up with actress Annabelle Wallis - is said to be asking Dakota for advice on music, too.
American star Dakota has had far fewer high profile romances than Gwyneth Paltrow's ex-husband, but she was previously linked to another famous Brit, Benedict Cumberbatch, in 2013.
A source told US Weekly: “Dakota and Chris are definitely dating.
"They’ve got to know each other really well and are very comfortable from one another. Chris sends Dakota his music to get her opinion. It’s more than just a fling.”
Before the Israel trip, one of the earliest sightings of Chris and Dakota was a date in Sushi Park, Los Angeles, in November.
Songwriter Chris clearly has a taste for Hollywood's leading ladies as apart from 45-year-old Gwyneth, he's also dated Jennifer Lawrence, 27.
