Chris Martin forgets footwear as he strolls about Malibu

Chris Martin decided to go barefoot today, as he took a walk around his Malibu neighbourhood.

The 37-year-old, who split from Gwyneth Paltrow earlier this year, dressed casually for his stroll with a friend – wearing sweatpants and a plain white tee.

The Coldplay frontman has probably got a lot to think about, as rumours of his budding relationship with actress Jennifer Lawrence are mounting.

Chris and JLaw were spotted together stepping off a private jet in Los Angeles on Saturday, and were reportedly seen getting cosy at the iHeartRadio festival.

Jennifer was photographed leaving the backstage area of the festival, with Chris Martin not far behind her.

Things could be heating up between the couple, as sources have told Us Weekly that Chris has "fallen in love" with the Oscar winning actress.

Both Chris and Jennifer have recently split from long term relationships; Chris ‘consciously uncoupled’ wife Gwyneth Paltrow in March.
