Gwyneth Paltrow trying to save marriage with Chris Martin again?

They are rarely seen together much, and Gwyneth Paltrow and Chris Martin’s rumored marriage troubles are always quickly dismissed but sometimes where there’s smoke….  NY Daily News celeb writer Gatecrasher says indeed Paltrow and her husband, Coldplay rocker Chris Martin, are holed up in their London home “trying to make their marriage better.”

The Oscar-winner is said to be very serious about getting things worked out even though she proclaims she’s  ‘perfectly happy’ and refuses to read any of the tabloid tales to the contrary.”

Apparently one of the issues the couple is dealing with is Gwyneth’s obsession with her pal Madonna. Pal say: “It’s eerie. Gwyneth acts normally until Madonna comes around, and then Gwyn is all about Madonna, all the time. Madge has even introduced Gwyneth to all her friends.Now instead of going to see Chris perform, she’d rather hang out with people like Alex Rodriguez and Ingrid Casares.”  Proving once again Madonna is the root of all evil?

Seemingly to make amends “she’s staying overseas until the holidays are over,” to try to work things out. Even forgoing events she typically loves, like tonight’s third annual Food Bank Lunchbox Auction bash. She usually hosts the event with close friend Mario Batali.  Such sacrifices!
