Gwyneth Paltrow is keen to get to know Jennifer Lawrence

Los Angeles - Gwyneth Paltrow wants to spend time getting to know Chris Martin's new girlfriend Jennifer Lawrence.

The 42-year-old actress is said to be keen to introduce her and the Coldplay frontman's children, daughter Apple, 10, and eight-year-old son Moses, but she "wants to be sure" about the Hunger Games actress.

An insider told Us Magazine: "She'd like to spend a little time with her and thinks they'd probably get along."

Despite her concerns, Gwyneth is said to feel content about Chris - who she split from in March - dating the 24-year-old beauty.

Following the former couple's "conscious uncoupling", Gwyneth and Chris are said to have remained close and he recently reportedly splashed out £6.75m on a house opposite her Californian home.

Gwyneth's mother Blythe Danner is said to have helped the 37-year-old singer move into his new plush pad, which features five bedrooms and seven bathrooms.

What's more, Chris hosted a cocktail party for Gwyneth's 42th birthday last month at her Los Angeles home.

He invited some of Gwyneth's colleagues from her lifestyle newsletter, Goop, and parents whose children attend the same school as their kids as well as Jennifer Aniston, Nicole Richie and Kate Hudson.
