It's not just Gwyneth Paltrow who has unhealthy eating habits.

In fact, we're beginning to think that a dispute about food may have been the main reason for Chris Martin and Paltrow's marital split, if the Coldplay frontman's latest revelation is anything to go by.

Martin was a recent guest on the 'Conan O'Brien Needs a Friend' podcast, where he revealed an unusual method of 'staying in shape' - he only eats one meal a day.

And what's more, his approach to food was influenced by none other than Bruce Springsteen, who reportedly does the same thing.

When O'Brien asked him about having dinner with his musical heroes, Martin said "I don't actually have dinner anymore. I stop eating at 4, and I learned that from having lunch with Bruce Springsteen."

An incredulous O'Brien said "Really?!" and he said "I love him and I love Patti [Scialfa], his wife. I was lucky enough to go over there for lunch the day after we played Philadelphia last year. I was on a really strict diet anyway, and I said 'Bruce looks even more in shape than me!', and Patti said 'He's only eating one meal a day.' So I went 'Well, there we go. That's my next challenge.'"

In short, he and his ex-wife won't be sharing a meal anytime soon.
