Reflecting on their past relationships, the women talked about how they would deal with arguments with their partners.<\/p>\n<p>Paltrow admitted she used to shut down and \u201cleave the room\u201d during a fight. She says all that changed, however, when she met her now-husband producer Brad Falchuk who demands the couple work out their issues, presently and together.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe were friends first for a long time and once I was like, \u2018Are we going to date? Is this happening?&#8217;\u201d she recalled of the early moments in their relationship. \u201cI was scared because he is a person who demands presence and intimacy and communication in a way that I just didn\u2019t know how to [do].\u201d<\/p>\n<p>If Paltrow tried to leave the room after an argument, she says Falchuk would say, \u201cAbsolutely not\u2026 we\u2019re sitting down and we\u2019re figuring this out.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cHe demands that I am honest with myself in a way that is hard for me,\u201d Paltrow said. \u201cBut, really helps me grow.\u201d<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_189283\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-189283\" style=\"width: 3456px\" class=\"wp-caption alignfull -width\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-189283 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/graziamagazine.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/GettyImages-1177359033.jpg\" alt=\"Anna Faris Chris Pratt\" width=\"3456\" height=\"4416\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-189283\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Gwyneth Paltrow and Brad Falchuk attend &#8220;The Politician&#8221; New York Premiere at DGA Theater on September 26, 2019 in New York City.
