Dakota Johnson is getting accused of paying the paparazzi to follow her around as she enjoys Europe’s beaches. The actress, 35, is fresh from ending her eight-year relationship with Coldplay star Chris Martin, and it looks like she’s living her single-girl era in style.
Wrapping up June and kicking off July in vacay mode, Dakota jetted out to Ibiza, Spain, where she hung out on a yacht with Hollywood star Kate Hudson and strolled the Mediterranean coastline. When photos of Dakota walking sands with friends went viral recently, users alleged that the Fifty Shades star had paid the paparazzi to take the photos. The Kardashian-Jenner clan are often accused of doing the same, but for Dakota, such allegations are a rarity.
Dakota Johnson Hits The Beach After Chris Martin Breakup
Seemingly unaware that she was being photographed, Dakota highlighted her stunning figure in a white halter top, adding a loose-fitting maxi skirt for some cover down below.
Displaying her abs while reminding fans of her curves, the brunette kept cute with a long braid while in a baseball cap, adding shades, plus flat shoes. Dakota was spotted with a small crowd, including a mystery man. Some may be wondering if she’s on the rebound after calling it quits with Chris Martin.
The photos were posted on the Just Jared Instagram shortly before the holiday weekend. While some fans gushed over Dakota’s good looks and one ranked her as one of the best-looking actresses in Hollywood, others threw shade.
Did She ‘Call The Paps’ And Pay Them?
Over 130 fans liked a reply reading: “It’s a crazy concept that people follow these celebrities around with cameras from state to state and country to country..”
Here, fans jumped in to give their opinions. “And they earn money from it,” one said. Thinking that Dakota had straight-up speed-dialed the press to get her images out on the internet, a third replied: “Whenever Backgrid is the source that means that the celebs called the paps themselves.”
Dakota tends to keep a low profile. She’s not too active on her Instagram, but she has made a string of public appearances in recent months. Some fans have also been remarking on her weight, thinking that she’s gotten a little too skinny of late. See the photos here.
Dakota had, in March 2024, sparked rumors that she was engaged to Chris Martin, but these two now seem done and dusted. The former couple began dating back in 2017. Their last joint public appearance was in May of this year.
