Chances are, when you think of the word “Apple” or the concept of unique baby names, you instantly think about Gwyneth Paltrow and Chris Martin’s daughter Apple Martin. Ever since the future “It” girl was born on May 14, 2004, everyone knew she’d be doing something super cool with her life — and they were right!
Despite having two A-lister parents that always seem to be in the news, Apple is a bit of an enigma. We do know that not only does she reportedly adore her unique name, but she’s making waves in both the academic and modeling worlds.
Earlier this year, she finally made her long-awaited Fashion Week debut (in the front row rather than the catwalk!) And fans are itching to know more about the gal that late fashion designer Karl Lagerfeld called a “Future Chanel girl.”
Along with that, every time she makes an appearance on her mama’s social media, people can’t stop marveling at how much the two look alike (and how relatable she is for cringing at her mom’s sex tales!)
So, let’s talk about the shining superstar! Check out everything we know about Paltrow and the Coldplay frontman’s daughter below:
