Dakota Johnson Spills the Tea on Her Ex-Boyfriend Chris Martin: She Sent Him a Gallon of Gorilla St as Revenge!

The Fifty Shades of Grey star, 35, recently took a lie detector test for Vanity Fair and let's just say she didn't hold back when it came to dishing out some juicy gossip about her ex-boyfriend Chris Martin. The actress was asked if she had ever sent a guy who broke her friend's heart a special "gift" - and the answer is yes, but with a twist!

According to the polygraph test results, Johnson confirmed that she did send a gallon of gorilla st to her ex-boyfriend as revenge for breaking someone's heart. When asked how she managed to order such an... interesting gift, Dakota simply replied, "Stsenders.com." Talk about taking it to the next level!

The Fifty Shades Of Grey actress - whose shock split from Chris Martin was confirmed this week - opened up about her loyalty to her pal while taking a lie detector test for Vanity Fair; seen with Martin in 2019

This shocking revelation comes just days after news broke that Johnson and Martin had officially called it quits after eight years of dating. The couple was first spotted together in 2017 and got engaged in 2020, but sources close to the couple revealed that they had been having issues for a while.

"It's been over for a long time," an insider told The Scholarly Note. "They just couldn't figure out how to make it official. Dakota held on to hope because she loved him so much and his kids, Apple and Moses, are like family to her."

But what really went down in their relationship? A source spilled the tea: "Breakups aren't instant, and they continued to break up and make up over the years. Sometimes things would work when they were apart, but then they'd get back together, and little things just kept adding up until they weren't right for each other anymore."

The star was asked, 'You once sent a man who broke your friend's heart a gallon of gorilla s**t. Can you confirm or deny that this happened?' Johnson replied stating, 'Yes I did do that'

And it looks like Johnson is still reeling from the breakup. "Dakota is devastated that she won't be around his kids as much anymore," the insider revealed. "She wants them to know that she's always there for them, though."

But don't count on these two getting back together anytime soon - at least not right now. According to The Scholarly Note, "Being separated will do wonders if they were to have any type of future together." Ouch!

Meanwhile, Johnson is focusing on her career and promoting her new romantic comedy Materialists, which hits theaters on June 13th. She'll be starring alongside Chris Evans and Pedro Pascal in the film about a young matchmaker who finds herself torn between the perfect match and her imperfect ex.

In an interview with Deadline, Dakota opened up about working with her co-stars: "Chris and Pedro were wonderful - they're both pretty funny dudes! They really make me laugh." But we have to wonder if she's still got feelings for her ex-boyfriend...

As for Gwyneth Paltrow, Martin's ex-wife, it seems that she and Johnson will remain close despite the breakup. "Gwyneth fully intends on maintaining that bond" with Dakota, an insider revealed. The two actresses have grown close over the years and consider each other family.

Last year, rumors of a split between Johnson and Martin began circulating, but a source at the time told People that they were still "happily together." Guess we all knew better!

A separate insider told The Sun this week, 'Dakota wanted this relationship to work. She not only loves Chris, but his two kids, and that loss feels incredibly painful. The decision to end things was amicable, but Dakota is finding it hard'; seen in May in NYC

'Settling down, as in Chris properly taking his foot off the pedal, isn't going to happen. And, ultimately, it was one of the many straws that broke the back of them,' the source continued; Martin seen in May in California
