Chris Martin showed his support for ex Dakota Johnson during a recent concert.
A concertgoer named Jasmin shared footage of the moment on TikTok from a Coldplay concert in Las Vegas on Friday, June 6. In the video — which has since garnered more than a million views — Martin, 48, can be seen at the end of the show, fullheartedly thanking the giant crowd.
“Thank you, everybody! Be kind to each other!” Martin said into the mic.
He then added, “Don’t forget to go see Materialists!”
The “Clocks” singer was referring to the new romantic comedy starring Johnson. In Materialists, which premieres on June 13, Johnson, 35, plays a New York City matchmaker who becomes torn between a new potential love (Pedro Pascal) and a messy ex (Chris Evans).
PEOPLE reached out to representatives for both Martin and Johnson for comment on Sunday, June 8, but did not receive an immediate response.

On June 4, multiple sources confirmed to PEOPLE that Martin and Johnson had ended their nearly eight-year relationship.
“It feels final this time,” a source said of the split.
The pair, who were first romantically linked in 2017, were photographed together last month when they stepped out in Malibu, California, on May 16. Before that, in January, the pair held hands in India, where Martin was touring with his band.

In March 2024, an insider told PEOPLE that Johnson and Martin had actually been engaged for “years” after first sparking engagement rumors in 2020, though they were “in no rush to get married” at the time.
When breakup rumors bubbled up in August 2024, a rep for the actress shut down the claims and said the pair were “happily together.” Around the same time, a source said, “Sure, they’ve had issues and taken breaks in the past, but things are great now. They both love their careers. They are balancing things the best they can.”
It seems that Martin isn’t the only person staying on good terms with Johnson after their split.
A source previously told PEOPLE that Martin’s ex-wife, Gwyneth Paltrow, plans to stay close to Johnson, revealing that they “developed a close friendship” over the years. The Goop founder, 52, “fully intends on maintaining that bond,” despite Johnson’s split from the Coldplay singer, a source said.

“There’s a genuine mutual respect between Gwyneth and Dakota, and they have a lot in common,” the source added. “They both grew up in the spotlight, have been in the business for years, and really relate to each other’s experiences.”
Martin, who is in the midst of a world tour with Coldplay, is scheduled to perform next in Denver on June 10. Johnson, meanwhile, is currently making the rounds promoting her new movie.
