Gwyneth Paltrow and Chris Martin seem to have put their Peru Easter break ahead of finalising their divorce.

It's now been reported that the couple, who formally filed in April 2015, have one more paper to sign before they can put an official end to their 10-year marriage.

According to TMZ, the final paper is a formality and could signal completion to their deal - wherein they have agreed joint custody of of 11-year-old Apple and 9-year-old Moses - this week.

At first, it was believed that Coldplay frontman Chris had ignored Gwyneth's divorce papers for over a year. 

Therefore, the couple were threatened with a default judgement in her favour but sources confirmed to TMZ on Tuesday that nothing had been put in writing in order to avoid a leaked judgement.

Chris and Gwyneth's lawyers have been 'hashing out a settlement' ever since she filed last year, an action which came one year after their announcement to separate or 'consciously uncouple.'

Still good friends, the couple have reportedly divided their property in a way that suits them both and now have just one more paper to sign.

So close are the duo that they have actually been away in Peru with their two children while the paper remains untouched.

Holiday photographs on Gwyneth's Instagram show the family having a happy time together, and even though Chris is never pictured, People reports that they were seen at the same hotel.

Gwyneth had flown to Buenos Aires to see Chris perform in Argentina with the Hymn For The Weekend hitmakers.

A source told The Sun last week: 'Chris has now signed the divorce papers. There was no underlying reason why he had left them for so long and he was planning to do it eventually.

'There is no bad blood between him and Gwyneth and they remain very close. As ever, their number one priority is their kids.'
