Gwyneth Paltrow and Chris Martin have come a long way since announcing to the world in March 2014 that they would be “consciously uncoupling”: What was in fact a plain-old divorce has crossed the legal finish line.

The split was finalized in Los Angeles Superior Court on Thursday and neither party will pay spousal support, the Associated Press reported Friday.

The actress and the Coldplay frontman, who have two kids together and were married for almost 10 years, reportedly reached a deal on finances and custody in April through their business managers and filed for divorce without enlisting attorneys.

Remember the “uncoupling” announcement? In it, they explained that they had “been working hard for well over a year, some of it together, some of it separated, to see what might have been possible between us, and we have come to the conclusion that while we love each other very much we will remain separate.”

Apparently, it’s mission accomplished.

“We’re still very much a family, even though we don’t have a romantic relationship. He’s like my brother,” the “Shakespeare in Love” Oscar winner told Glamour in February as she talked about how she and her ex now spend time together with Apple, 12, and Moses, 10.

As for the split, Paltrow said, “We put a lot of thought into how to do it so that the damage would be minimized.”

Martin, 39, said in April that it had taken him a year to “get” the breakup. “A year of depression and all that.” Post-split, he’s been linked with women including Jennifer Lawrence (briefly) and “Peaky Blinders” Annabelle Wallis. Meanwhile, the Goop guru, 43, is moving on with producer Brad Falchuk.
