Gwyneth Paltrow is experiencing all the highs and lows that come with marriage.
In a new interview, the retired actress just revealed that her "sex life is over" since moving in with her husband.
This is the woman who invented the term "conscious uncoupling," after all, when she and Coldplay's Chris Martin announced their divorce in 2014.
The mom, actress, and founder of the lifestyle brand Goop tied the knot with Brad Falchuk, a movie and film producer, in September 2018 after three years of dating.
They also worked together during the Netflix series The Politician, where Paltrow played a supporting role.
She also explained how her intimacy coach (yep, she has one of those) approved of their unconventional living arrangement.
She said that it gave their marriage “polarity.”
“Married life has been really good. We took a year to let everybody [in the family] take it in and let the dust settle. And now we’re moving in together this month,” Paltrow said.
So cute!
This was a big deal for more reasons than one since it also meant merging their families (both parents have two kids from previous marriages).
For Brad, this is Isabella and Brody and for Gwyneth, it's Apple and Moses.
In a new interview with Harper's Bazaar, she shared how her "sex life is over" since moving in with her husband.
“One of my best friends was like, ‘That is my dream. Don’t ever move in.’"
"So this is something I’m trying to remain aware of now as we merge together.”
“It’s not like there’s a finish line: ‘Oh, we consciously uncoupled; we’re done.’ It’s a lifelong commitment to constantly reinvent your relationship with your ex, which you do presumably because you have children together," she explained.
"I would say very rarely is it difficult now. We’ve learned how to communicate with each other. We love each other. We laugh. We have the best of each other. It’s really nice. It makes you feel like you don’t have to lose.”
Gwyneth has even called Dakota Johnson, Martin's new girlfriend, "fantastic."
This past summer, the foursome even all hung out together in the Hamptons.
She also revealed that she has "semi-retired" from acting.
“When I was acting I really burned myself out. When the flywheel kicked in, I was doing three to five movies a year. I really got to the point where even the little things, like sitting in the van going to set, getting your makeup touch-ups, and everything—I really don’t know that I can bear it."
"The last movie I starred in, I was pregnant with my daughter. It was a movie called Proof, an adaptation of a play I did in London, and I was like, ‘I’ve had it. I can’t do this anymore.’ I had morning sickness and I was dying, and I had these five-page monologues."
Even watching her performances on the big screen has been difficult for the star.
“I vom,” she said. “I gag. I hate it.”
You can even catch the CEO and Founder in The Goop Lab when it drops on Netflix on January 24.
“What we try to do at Goop is explore ideas that may seem out there or too scary,” says Goop’s chief content officer Elise Loehnen in the trailer.
Sex life or not, though, Brad shared to Vanity Fair how in awe he is to be Gwyneth's husband.

"It’s like, well, when that’s your wife, how do you not have the same approach?”
Aww!
“And the reality is, the real Gwyneth Paltrow is so much more amazing, so much more than that, and that’s the one that I keep getting struck by and can’t believe I’m married to."
