This may just be the most amicable split ever.

Gwyneth Paltrow and Chris Martin enjoyed a dinner date over the weekend at West Hollywood hotel Chateau Marmont and left together in the same car, as they tried to avoid the cameras. The actress wore a cream jacket for the outing and pulled her blonde hair back into a ponytail, while the Coldplay singer kept it casual in a gray sweater.

The pair made headlines when they announced their "conscious uncoupling" after 10 years of marriage in March, releasing a joint statement on the Oscar winner's website, Goop.

The 37-year-old musician and his band just released their latest album Ghost Stories on May 16. The father of two explained the personal meaning behind the project's title in a recent interview with BBC's Zane Lowe.

"Up to a certain point in my life, I wasn't completely vulnerable and it caused some problems," he said. "If you don't let love really in, then you can't really give it back. So, what Ghost Story means to me is like you've got to open yourself up to love and if you really do, of course it will be painful at times, but then it will be great at some point."

"I think in life everyone needs to be broken in some way...I think everyone in their life goes through challenges, whether it's love or money, kids, or illness...You have to really not run away from that stuff," he continued. "Life throws these colorful challenges at you...what we decided to do on Ghost Stories was to really be honest about it and say, this is what's been happening."
