Credit crunch, what credit crunch? Chris Martin and Gwyneth Paltrow refuse to let a tiny thing like a recession put a dampener on their plans for the perfect piece of real estate. According to Hollyscoop, the pair are knocking down to London houses to create one huge place.
The couple bought the first house from actress Kate Winslet in 2004 and bought the second house in 2007, but they've finally decided to get cracking with the renovations, which will leave them with a sizeable mansion worth £7 million.
The question remains, exactly how many pianos and fridges full of macrobiotic food can you stash in a 33-bed mansion?

Hold your breakfast, that isn't a euphemism - try not to think about Gwynnie and Chris Martin in that way... The actress actually shows off her cooking skills in a new clip on her riveting website Goop (as if reading about her wasn't enough).
"I think about cooking all the time. It's what I lie in bed thinking about at night... Over the years, it's become a major passion," she explains to viewers before rustling up a roast chicken, potatoes and a salad.
If we had to lie next to the Coldplay singer every night I'm sure out minds would start to wander too. It's just a shame that when the camera stopped rolling Gwynnie had to chuck all the food in the bin.

Gwyneth Paltrow doesn't often spill on her personal life, but she loosened her tongue for long enough to tell us that her life isn't quite the picnic it seems...
"Nothing is as good as it looks," she told to Life and Style magazine. "Life is complicated, and there are always issues to overcome. Like yesterday, [Chris] went to Australia, and I came here - you have to accept that."
We're brutally honest with each other. Even if, God forbid, we weren't together in 10 years or whatever, I think we're like a family," she added, before saying "he's going to kill me!"
If he's going to kill you just for saying that, things really aren't perfect...

Want to know how Gwyneth Paltrow stays so gorgeous and glowing? Apart from the expensive facials, macrobiotic chef and personal trainer, that is?
Well, she's revealed all - about how to stay in shape, that is - and it's actually eminently sensible, and do-able. In her latest email newsletter, Gwynnie shares the advice of her three (count 'em!) doctors.
"Sleep eight hours for two weeks, then start eliminating 'white' foods," Gwyneth quotes her New York cardiologist Dr. Alejandro Junger as saying. "After two weeks of sleeping and eating better, you'll have the energy to exercise. Begin as you like. If you are totally out of shape, start by walking 15 minutes a day and add a minute every day for the first month."
"At the end of a month, you'll be up to 45 minutes a day, which should make you ready for whatever more strenuous form of exercise you want to try," he continues. "Experiment with them all to see what works best for you and stick with it."
In Gwyneth's case: hitting the gym for three hours a day. The rest of us might just want to try the "sleeping" part.

The phone calls going something like:
"Madge - I'm going to a premiere at the London Film Festival tonight. And everyone's telling me that it's fancy dress, and that you have to go dressed as a gorilla... Yes... Apparently it's the sequel to Gorillas In The Mist... Anyway, do you think I should believe them?"
Well, believe them, she did. For here was Gwyneth Paltrow on the red carpet in Leicester Square last night - unfortunately dressed like a gorilla for the premiere of the new romantic drama Two Lovers, and not Gorillas In The Mist II, after all.
Still, I'm rather liking her black draped dress by Salvatore Ferragamo - although not so much her fur shrug by Felder & Felder if it is, indeed, real fur. Whatever would her pal Stella McCartney say?
And as for her other pal Madonna - well, Gwynnie revealed on the red carpet last night that she's just trying to "be there" for her friend during her divorce.
"You know, she's a dear friend, and I'm supporting her in all [the] ways that I can. I'm just here for her," she sighed. And according to Us magazine, that means being "in constant contact with Madonna". "I'm just here on the other end of the phone, really... I speak to her a lot," confirmed Gwyn last night.
Aww. Well, a gorilla in need is a gorilla indeed, eh?

As in: Madonna's marriage. Not Gwyneth Paltrow's own marriage to Chris Martin.
Gwyneth Paltrow was snapped out at an art fair in London's Regent's Park yesterday. And while she looked very cool in her black Tods coat, cropped trousers and, yes, Barack Obama badge, she also looked a bit down in the mouth.
Which isn't too surprising, given that yesterday her pals Madonna and Guy Ritchie officially announced that their seven-and-a-half-year marriage was over.
And which is doubly unsurprising given the story in today's Daily Mail.
According to the paper, Gwyneth "spent the past few months desperately trying to convince her best friend Madonna not to separate from Guy" because he believes that they "should remain together for the sake of their three children".
"Gwyneth is said to have advised her friend to think long and hard about the effects a divorce from the film director will have on Rocco, eight, adopted David Banda, two, and Lourdes, Madonna's 12-year-old daughter," reports the Mail - with a source adding: "Gwyneth begged Madonna all summer not to be an idiot and let this marriage fall apart."
But, sadly, fall apart it did. Better keep working on that British stiff upper lip, Gwynnie.

Altogether now: "Isn't sheeeee/Pretty in piiiiink..."
Here was Gwyneth Paltrow in Milan on Wednesday night - at the party for Tod's, the accessories emporium that she shot adverts for earlier this year. So, well, it would be churlish not to attend their bash, eh?
According to People magazine, Gwyneth has been the best dressed celebrity of the year - and in this cute dress by Marni, accessorised with opaque tights, patent shoes and handbag (by Tod's, of course), she didn't let herself down. But don't worry, Gwynnie - you've only got to keep it up for another three months!
