Jennifer Lawrence gave awkward response after finally being asked if she was in relationship with Chris Martin

After finalising his divorce from Gwyneth Paltrow in April 2015, Chris Martin became one of the most eligible bachelors on the market.

As well as an army of Coldplay fans falling at his feet, the band's frontman was fighting off a horde of A-list potential lovers too.

Before he found love with Dakota Johnson, he was linked to a number of other stunning actresses - including Jennifer Lawrence.

Take a look at this:

The Hunger Games star, 33, and Martin sparked dating rumours eight years ago after they were said to have been embroiled in a four-month whirlwind romance.

Neither of them ever publicly confirmed their relationship, but pictures of the pair looking cosy while dining at exclusive restaurants did the rounds.

It was then reported that the pair had called it quits, as Martin was juggling a hectic work schedule and post-divorce life.

Sources claimed Lawrence grew tired of him being 'noncommittal', but they supposedly still cared about each other a lot.

Although her alleged romance with the Fix You crooner managed to largely stay under the radar, Andy Cohen obviously was clued up on it.

The Bravo frontman took the opportunity to grill Lawrence on her love life when she appeared on What What Happens Live! in December 2015, a few months after the supposed break up.

A caller first rang in to dig into the details of the actress' celebrity crushes, explaining that Justin Bieber had recently revealed he had a crush on her.

Reminder - this was 2015, long before Hailey Bieber came along.

Although the prospect of dating the teenybopper was a 'hard no' for Lawrence, it gave Cohen the perfect opener to quiz her on her alleged fling with Martin.

He asked: "You and Chris Martin never really confirmed whether you were together or not..."

But the Silver Linings Playbook star still kept her cards close to her chest and simply responded: "We never did."

When the Real Housewives producer pressed her for a definitive answer, Lawrence again decided to play coy.

She simply said while giggling nervously: "Huh, come on!"

Lawrence went on to begin dating art gallery director Cooke Maroney in 2018 and got hitched the following year in Rhode Island.

She gave birth to their son, Cy, in February 2022 and has kept a low profile since becoming a family-of-three.

Martin on the other hand is still going strong with Fifty Shades actress Johnson.

She has even managed to win over his ex-wife Paltrow and they all recently celebrated Thanksgiving together in The Hamptons.
