EXCLUSIVE: Gwyneth Paltrow Divorce Crisis — Goop Founder Hit By Worries She's Set for Another Conscious Uncoupling From Husband Brad Falchuk

Gwyneth Paltrow is facing fresh speculation about the state of her marriage to Brad Falchuk, with friends telling RadarOnline.com the Goop founder fears she could be heading for "another conscious uncoupling."

The 53-year-old Oscar winner, who famously used the phrase to redefine the language of divorce when she split from Coldplay frontman Chris Martin, 48, in 2014, has now been married to television producer Falchuk, 54, for seven years.

But sources say tensions have grown between the pair as Paltrow focuses on reviving her acting career while Falchuk spends increasing amounts of time away writing and producing new projects.

A source close to the couple said: "There's definitely a different energy between them now. They're spending more time apart, and that easy closeness they once had has faded. Gwyneth is constantly reinventing herself – it's part of who she is – but Brad seems to be struggling to keep up.

"Friends worry this could be the early signs of another conscious uncoupling."

Rumors of strain surfaced over the summer following the publication of an unauthorized biography, Gwyneth, by New York Times bestselling author Amy Odell, which included a series of explicit claims about Paltrow's past relationships.

According to insiders, Falchuk was "deeply uncomfortable" with parts of the book, particularly the renewed focus on Paltrow's sex life with former partners.

One friend said: "Brad's always been proud of everything Gwyneth's achieved, but the book really unsettled him. He's quite private, and seeing those old stories resurface was uncomfortable. They clashed over it, and the strain hasn't completely gone away."

The couple's professional paths have also diverged. While Paltrow recently shot her big-screen comeback in the sports drama Marty Supreme – in which she stars opposite Timothée Chalamet – Falchuk has been occupied with several new series projects in Los Angeles.

Another insider said: "The problem is how far apart their lives have drifted. Gwyneth's focused on acting again and trying to stabilize Goop after a tough year, while Brad's busy developing new TV projects.

Paltrow's decision to film intimate scenes with Chalamet reportedly surprised Falchuk.

During a recent interview, the actress admitted she told the intimacy coordinator on set to "step back," adding, "I was like, 'Girl, I'm from the era where you get naked, you get in bed, the camera's on.'"

A source said: "Brad had no real input on that role – it came as a surprise to him. It's not about jealousy, but he does feel left out of choices that shape their lives. He's always backed Gwyneth's independence, but there's a fine line between giving space and feeling shut out.

"They used to collaborate on everything, but that creative partnership has faded. Friends who've known them for years say the distance is obvious – and concerning."
