Despite a handful of public relationships, Dakota Johnson tends to keep her personal life out of the spotlight. However, the actress opened up about her romantic relationships while promoting her upcoming film Materialists, directed by Celine Song.
While gracing this month's cover of ELLE Magazine, the 35-year-old discussed her relationship history. Dakota revealed she had "never dated anyone" – a surprising statement given her high-profile relationship with Coldplay frontman Chris Martin.

She continued: "I also loved that Celine used to be a matchmaker in real life. I find the whole concept of the film so interesting, because it's so foreign to me.

It's the most beautiful side of humanity, but it can also be the most ugly. Loving someone is the most scary and beautiful thing you can do."
Dakota has previously notably dated musician Matthew Hitt, actor Jordan Masterson, and singer Noah Gersh.
The shoot
For the shoot, the actress donned a burgundy Gucci bikini top with a pair of jeans and a brown leather Gucci belt. Dakota held up a pink silk scarf as she posed for the camera with a fierce gaze. The star's brunette locks were styled into soft waves with her signature bangs while her makeup exuded soft glamour.
Another photograph from the shoot captured the star posing on a staircase in a pair of sparkly kickers, a suede bomber jacket, and a pair of killer heels.
The Gucci theme continued throughout the editorial, with Dakota wearing a silk red night shirt adorned with white piping from the Italian fashion house.

I nest kind of wherever I am. If I'm in a hotel for six weeks, if I'm in a hotel for four days, if I'm in a rental, I'm like, I live here now – this is my home," she shared.
