Coldplay rocker Chris Martin tasted revenge recently when he met a former classmate who bullied him at school. The singer – married to Oscar-winning actress Gwyneth Paltrow – insists he couldn’t resist the opportunity to show how successful he had become.

He says, “I bumped into a guy who used to give me hell at school. He was a bully who always said I wouldn’t make anything of myself. I had great pleasure asking what he was up to now. He wasn’t up to much. Then I turned around and said, ‘This is my wife Gwyneth.’ His face dropped and he looked really embarrassed.

“It was a proud moment. I’m not one to get my own back and look for revenge – but that was pretty sweet. I wasn’t the happiest at school. I was quite geeky. I was a bit of a swot and just wanted to do music.”
