Gwyneth's Coldplay cure for grief over father's death

Oct 17, 2006, 8:01 GMT

Gwyneth Paltrow's mother Blythe Danner has revealed her family turned to Coldplay's music to get over the death of her husband.

Blythe has revealed her actress daughter was already emotionally attached to her future husband, Chris Martin's music before they met, because she listened to it while grieving for her director father Bruce.

She told Britain's New magazine: "I think there is something quite deep about their music.

"Weirdly enough, when Bruce died, we were all listening to Coldplay a lot, and then Gwyn and Chris happened to meet. It's really interesting."

The 'Meet The Fockers' actress has also joked that she feels like her son-in-law's "oldest groupie" when she goes to see him perform live - because she is always hanging out backstage with musicians and fans.

She added: "I don't sit in the front row when I go to his concerts, I usually hang out backstage with Gwyneth and Apple. I'm his oldest groupie!"
