Gwyneth Paltrow heads off to a fun getaway in tropical Mexico for her bachelorette party
Gwyneth Paltrow will soon walk down the aisle for the second time, but not without the most important detail of the wedding ticked off: her very own bachelorette party. The actress is headed to the south of the border for a few days of fun in the sun with friends like Cameron Diaz and Stella McCartney.
"I'm so excited about everything," Paltrow recently told People. "I've never had a wedding before, so even though I'm 45, I sort of feel like a 21-year-old. It's kind of fun to talk about with my girlfriends. They send me pictures of dresses – they're as excited about it as I am."
According to Page Six, her friend Cameron Diaz planned the entire bachelorette, which is currently taking place in Cabo San Lucas, Mexico. And according to another report by Harper's Bazaar, the guest list includes A-list stars like Stella McCartney, Drew Barrymore, Reese Witherspoon, and Kate Hudson.
"Right when she got off the jet, Gwyneth looked extremely relaxed and happy," an insider told E! News. "She was speaking Spanish and was excited to be with her friends in Mexico."
The Goop mastermind is preparing to marry her fiancé Brad Falchuk, who she first started dating three years ago, and couldn't be more excited about the whole thing. “She looked ecstatic," a source told People. They have many fun activities planned, including pool time, spa and fun dinners.”
The actress, who was previously married to Coldplay frontman Chris Martin, recently opened up about her relationship with Falchuk during their joint engagement announcement. "We feel incredibly lucky to have come together at this juncture in our lives when our collective successes and failures can serve as building blocks for a healthy and happy relationship."
“Personally, at midlife, I have tried to accept how complex romantic love can be,” Paltrow said, talking about going ahead with her second marriage. “I have decided to give it a go again, not only because I believe I have found the man I was meant to be with, but because I have accepted the soul-stretching, pattern-breaking opportunities that (terrifyingly) are made possible by intimacy.”
Paltrow has documented her entire three-year relationship with Falchuk on Instagram, posting photos of him over the course of their dates. In her own true spirit, she’s even introduced Falchuk to Martin, and if her social media account is to go by, they all even brunch together.
