Shane Warne has once again expressed his admiration for Coldplay frontman Chris Martin, describing him as one of his 'closest friends' over the past 15 years. The Australian cricket legend shared a video from the band's concert in Glasgow on Tuesday night, calling it 'the best concert ever' and praising the 'greatest band on the planet.'
Warne, 46, took to social media to thank Martin for his support during his time on 'I'm A Celebrity... Get Me Out Of Here!' Australia. He tweeted: 'Thanks for the support whilst in the jungle & friendship over the last 15 yrs Chris, means a lot, love u too buddy.'
The pair's friendship began after meeting in a hotel lift while both were accompanied by women. Warne recalled the encounter during the show, saying they 'clicked' and talked all night until sunrise. He described Martin as a 'part-time percussionist' for Coldplay, a reference to a joke between them.
Coldplay had previously sent a good luck message to Warne for his jungle stint, and Martin recorded a video message for him after his exit from the show. The singer joked about living in the jungle in solidarity with Warne and craving cake.
Warne, known as the 'King of Spin' in cricket, frequently shares selfies and moments with Martin on Instagram, highlighting their enduring bromance. The latest concert post has delighted fans, showcasing the close bond between the sports star and the musician.
