Sources close to the Fifty Shades of Grey actress spoke to PEOPLE about the split. “Dakota’s doing well,” they said. “The split wasn’t exactly a shock.”
The insiders also said Johnson and Martin had the “same issues for a while” and ended things earlier this month.
“She wants to live her life very intentionally – she doesn’t want to have any regrets,” the sources pointed out. “She loves all her creative projects and is excited about her career.”
They then said, “She believes there is more to life than work, though. She wants a meaningful life on all levels.”
Johnson and Martin were first romantically linked in 2017 and had a nearly eight-year, on-and-off relationship. The “official” split comes more than a year after an insider claimed that the couple had been engaged for “years.” They had also sparked engagement rumors in 2020.
