Just because Chris Martin and Gwyneth Paltrow decided to opt for "conscious uncoupling" doesn't mean they no longer have a connection. At least that's what Martin shared with Ryan Seacrest.

In an interview for "On Air with Ryan Seacrest" on Thursday, the 38-year old Coldplay front man said, "Just because a romantic relationship ends, doesn't mean that the other facets of your relationship have to end ... or indeed, doesn't mean they can't get better."

Martin was married to Paltrow for 10 years and has two children with the Oscar-winning actress; 11-year old Apple and 9-year old Moses. The two announced their separation in March 2014.

At the Fast Company Innovation Festival in New York City on Tuesday, Paltrow admitted that aside from having a hard time with the separation on a personal level, they also had to contend with tons of criticism. She said that their idea of breaking up but remaining a family met a lot of raised eyebrows, but that she felt it was still "kind of a good thing to talk about."

The actress admitted that she didn't grow up with divorced parents and had high hopes regarding her marriage. Although she found it difficult to leave the marriage, the actress believes it was for the best.

Paltrow even joked about how their split "broke the f------ Internet" before Kim Kardashian did."

Currently, the actress is said to be dating producer Brad Falchuk; while Martin is said to have dated actress Jennifer Lawrence for a few months after his split from Paltrow.
