If Gwyneth Paltrow wanted Chris Martin back, all she’d have to do was snap her fingers and he’d come running – or so Gwyneth believes. Insiders reveal that the Oscar-winning actress has been sending mixed signals post-split but, unfortunately, they’re not getting through to Chris – because he is done with her.

Though for the past years, the two had agreed that an open marriage was best for them because they were simply not getting along as before, Gwyneth still lives under the impression that she can still boss Chris around and even get him to come back, sources close to the Coldplay frontman reveal for Radar Online.

“Gwyneth might think that, but Chris just isn’t having it. He is over being treated like a second fiddle. Everything in their marriage was ALWAYS all about Gwyneth,” says a spy, adding that he’s pretty much “fed up with her childish antics.”

Said antics include flirting openly with him at a family party they attended just recently, after the divorce announcement, which Gwyneth called “conscious uncoupling.” It is a known fact that, after the announcement, the two went on a family holiday to the Bahamas so, at least in this regard, the report is accurate: the two are still trying to keep up appearances and to make the split as unpainful as possible for their 2 kids.

Or, better said, Chris must be striving to do that because Gwyneth is all about playing her silly power games.

“Gwyneth [was] hanging all over Chris! She only makes these grand gestures in public. Behind closed doors, she is as cold as ice! It’s all a game to Gwyneth. She is deliberately putting out a message that all she has to do is snap her fingers and Chris will come running back. But in reality, it is not true,” says the insider in reference to her behavior at the party.

Chris has no intention of running back to her, though. The same report notes that he’s eager to get back on the road with his band and thus put some distance between him and Gwyneth for a while. She might want to play games, but he’s determined to move on from a marriage in which, allegedly, he was always treated like a child who knew no better and had no mind of his own really.

Martin and Paltrow were married for 11 years. Officially, the decision to separate was mutual, taken after a long time of consideration to what’s best for all involved. Unofficially, though (i.e. in the glossies and the blogosphere) Gwyneth is pretty much an ice queen slash witch who believes she’s God’s gift to humanity.
