MUMBAI: Coldplay singer Chris Martin and actress Jennifer Lawrence are "happier than ever" and have been spending lots of "quality time" together.

The 38-year-old British rocker and 24-year-old actress, who started dating last year, have reportedly been spending a lot of time together since the Oscar winner recently wrapped up filming her upcoming film 'Joy'.

"Both have full plates and they like it that way. They see each other when they can, yet each continues to do their own thing."

"They respect each other immeasurably. (They) are happier than ever. They have been spending a lot of time together," a source close to the couple, who were even spotted together in New York last month, told people.com.

The Coldplay frontman, who is said to be "romantic and thoughtful", has also been getting to know Lawrence's inner circle.

The insider added, "He's made an effort to get to know her friends."
