14 DAY TRIAL // This is a bit of an odd report: it turns out that Gwyneth Paltrow is still emotionally attached to her former husband, Chris Martin, from whom she “consciously uncoupled” earlier this year. That would be the only viable explanation to the fact that she included his name on her new collection of underwear she's selling on her lifestyle website, Goop.
The 41-year-old has debuted a new collection of unmentionables, and one particular model has attracted the attention of buyers. A pair of monogrammed ladies' underwear has the initials GKPM stenciled on the back, which stand for Gwyneth Kate Paltrow Martin.
The actress uses Martin's name on her new products, divorce be damned
The description claims that they are “Available in three different everyday wearable shades, these cute bikini panties - trimmed in stretchy, super comfortable lace - are monogrammable across the upper back,” but what it fails to address is why Paltrow has chosen to keep Martin's name and put it on her new collection.
Since reports keep popping up that Paltrow is still trying to keep a firm grasp on her ex-husband, controlling his life by drawing up a strict visitation schedule which maps out just how much time he has to spend with their children, the monogram thing could very well be Gwyneth's attempt to let him know that she's still keeping his name she took when they were married.
It may also be a sort of warning to any would-be partners of her estranged husband, like Jennifer Lawrence. Paltrow is said to be green with fury over the fact that Martin has gone out and replaced her with a younger woman, and so soon after the divorce, despite the fact that she's been fooling around with a TV producer for some time now.
Martin getting ready to introduce Lawrence to the kids, Paltrow does not approve
Latest reports claim that Martin is just about ready to introduce Lawrence to his kids, a definite sign that things are getting serious between them, so it's only going to be a matter of time until Lawrence and Paltrow have to meet face to face.
Since Gwyneth insists on keeping such a firm grasp on her ex, it could pose a problem with his current, who is naturally going to be upset by the fact that Chris is still on her beckoning call, not to mention on a very strict schedule.
In the meantime, Gwyneth is making money off her old name, by selling lingerie with his initials on it. Either way you look at it, that is a strong message of “stay away” for any would-be suitor for her ex-husband.
