Rocky Marriage
Several blog sites reported on November 19, 2008, that Paltrow and Martin's marriage may be in trouble. Paltrow was said to have attended the Victoria's Secret fashion show in Miami Beach instead of joining her husband on his Coldplay tour. Paltrow was spotted with Fontainebleau Resorts owner, Jeff Soffer, several times during her trip. A Page Six insider stated that "Gwyneth flew down privately at the behest of Jeff Soffer." Another source added that while Paltrow was at the fashion show, she "remained closed off in a private section and hung out with Soffer and Madonna paramour Alex Rodriguez." Paltrow was also said to have joined Soffer on his yacht along with her pal Kate Hudson.Page Six: Hubby Free in Miami (November 19, 2008)
