Gwyneth Paltrow seemed to regret "conscious uncoupling" with ex Chris Martin as rumors continue to fly that they are back together.
In an interview with Harpers Bazaar, the actress weighed on in her relationship with her ex and about being open minded if the partner has had an affair.
"The older I get, the more open-minded I get, the less judgmental I get. "I have friends who I love and admire who have had an affair. When I was younger, I would have said, 'He's a terrible person' or 'She's a terrible person.' But who made these laws?" she said.
Gwyneth Paltrow also described her "conscious uncoupling" with Chris Martin as always a "moving and amorphous" thing.
"Of course, there are times when I think it would have been better if we had stayed married, which is always what your children want," she added. "But we have been able to solidify this friendship, so that we're really close."
But she said that when two people are in love, they just keep going even through a very difficult phase. In the process, they discover something new about themselves and each other and the relationship is the better for it.
Talking about Chris Martin, Gwyneth Paltrow credited her estranged husband for coming into her life just when she was at her lowest due to the death of her father in 2002. They were married one year into their relationship and she was already pregnant with her eldest, Apple.
"We've made a lot of mistakes, and we've had good days and bad days, but, I have to say, I'm proud of us for working through so much stuff together - and not blaming and shaming," she said.
Since their conscious uncoupling, the couple went on to see other people. The Coldplay frontman had a high-profile relationship with "Hunger Games" actress Jennifer Lawrence, while the "Mortdecai" actress reportedly has a low-profile relationship with Brad Falchuk of "Glee."
