has spoken about the benefits of having lived apart from her husband Brad Falchuk for the first year of their marriage. In June, the actor and Goop founder revealed that she and Falchuk did not live together, and would typically spend four nights a week at Paltrow’s home. Though the couple moved in together a few months later, the news prompted worldwide coverage and debates into whether or not couples need to live together in order to have a healthy relationship. Now, speaking to Harper’s Bazaar, Paltrow has explained that she found it “interesting” how people reacted to the fact that she and Falchuk were not yet cohabiting. “I thought it was really interesting how resonant that was for people,” the 47-year-old said. Paltrow went on to discuss the advantages of living apart from a partner. “I think it certainly helps with preserving mystery and also preserving the idea that this person has their own life,” she said. “So this is something I’m trying to remain aware of now as we merge together.”
