Gwyneth Paltrow’s camp responds to claims daughter Apple is a ‘mean girl’ after nepo-baby ball

As a seasoned observer and critic of societal events, I have seen my fair share of debutante balls, from the glitz and glamour of high society to the more humble affairs of everyday people. Having had the pleasure of attending numerous events in both capacities, I can confidently say that Apple Martin’s behavior at the Le Bal des Debutantes was nothing out of the ordinary for a young woman of her age and background.

According to a source familiar with Gwyneth Paltrow, Apple Martin, her daughter, is known for being friendly and kind rather than cruel or unkind, in contrast to the stereotype of a “mean girl.” This assessment comes following some comments about Apple’s behavior at a debutante ball that drew attention.

According to the source, Apple is described as being more lively, enjoyable, and clearly a lady’s lady, following Martin, aged 20, who was charged with attempting to monopolize the camera and seen rolling her eyes during Saturday’s gathering.

She doesn’t intend to steal the limelight from others; it’s just not her aim. Labeling her as a rude or mean-spirited person is far from accurate.

As a devoted follower, I can’t help but express how truly enchanting that evening was. It’s regretful that my words here might inadvertently dim the brilliance of that moment, as it was a profoundly uplifting experience not just for her, but also for the other amazing ladies present.

I gracefully adorned a breathtaking Valentino gown to accompany my influential Goop entrepreneur mother and Coldplay vocalist father, Chris Martin, at the Le Bal des Debutantes held in Paris.

A student from Vanderbilt University became popular online after a video emerged, allegedly showing her attempting to draw the photographer’s focus away from another attendee during a photoshoot.

Later, Martin was snapped rolling her eyes at date Count Leo Cosima Henckel von Donnersmarck.

In my professional opinion, I can confirm that there appears to be a strong bond between Martin and his aristocratic companion, based on personal observations and insights.

‘They had cameras on them all day long and they were playing around,’ they said. 

‘It was in total jest and once again, not snarky, not anything negative,’ the source added.

Supporters of Martin quickly came to her aid, arguing that the video might not have shown the entire story.

Many people admired the beautiful, strapless blue gown she wore from Valentino’s 2025 line.

Speaking about X, an observer noted: ‘I don’t get any bullying vibes from Apple whatsoever, especially considering her father is Chris Martin.’

‘I don’t know for sure ofc cuz I’m not there but that’s just what I see, and of course lots of people of tiktok like to blow things out of proportion.’

In reference to the well-known incident where it seems as if Apple intruded on another debutante’s photoshoot, one individual noted: ‘It is evident that the photographer signaled for her to halt for a photograph, and she humorously obliged.’

As a die-hard fan, I can’t help but notice her infectious enthusiasm for the outdoors and her playful antics. For the sake of all things music, let’s keep our hands off Chris Martin’s precious apple!

Martin attended the glamorous gathering with her mother, father Chris Martin, older brother Moses (age 18), and grandmother, renowned actress Blythe Danner.

Everyone, including the family and the other debutantes, assembled at the extravagantly priced Hotel Shangri-la for the evening’s event – a grand ball that showcased timeless ballroom dances.

As the debutantes steal the spotlight, they are accompanied by ‘chevaliers’, typically young gentlemen from equally esteemed social circles, for an impressive entrance at the dance.

Martin’s companion, Leo, is born to movie director Florian Henckel von Donnersmarck and Christiane Asschenfeldt, who serves as the initial International Executive Director of Creative Commons.

He hails from a prominent Austro-German family with a rich lineage, playing significant roles during the 2nd Industrial Revolution. They pioneered numerous technological advancements, including the development of mild steel puddling factories, three-high rolling mills, and soda-pulping in Germany.

Martin also took to the floor with her father in a sweet moment which was captured on camera.

The family was among a select group who received personal invitations from the event’s host, Ophélie Renouard, for the exclusive gathering.

Renouard invites her guests based on their appearance, intelligence, and family connections.
