'I won the lottery marrying Gwyneth'

Coldplay frontman Chris Martin has revealed that being married to Gwyneth Paltrow is 'like winning the lottery'. The British singer admits in a new interview that he feels really lucky to be married to the GOOP Goddess, and not just because she's the only serious romance he's ever had.
In an interview with CBS Sunday Morning, Anthony Mason asked Martin, 34, if it was true that he'd only had 'one serious relationship'. Martin confirmed: 'That's right. I'm in it.' Mason pointed out that Martin's lack of serious girlfriends in the past was 'pretty unusual' and told him he'd made 'quite a leap.' The musician quipped: 'It's a big leap? What, from being a loser, to going out with an Oscar winner?'
Martin then laughingly continued: 'It's a giant leap. Let's face it; it's like winning the lottery.' Martin and Paltrow, who said 'I do' in 2003, are parents to Moses, five, and seven year-old Apple. Martin also revealed how being a father had changed his professional life, adding: 'It's made it more focused.
'And you have a purpose. I like what it does. Just the idea of having to work hard so your kids are okay.'
Martin and Paltrow have been notoriously close-lipped about their romance and are very rarely seen together and never walk the red carpet or have themselves pictured at celebrity events. Gwyneth recently said in an Elle interview that she understands why musician likes to keep their relationship private. 'He makes music for his fans, and he doesn't want people to conjure a lame famous couple when they're getting into his music,' the Sliding Doors star said. 'I get it.'
