Does anything capture that quintessentially contemporary sentiment of simultaneous revulsion and infatuation like seeing images of Apple Martin — not the name of a cocktail but the daughter of Gwyneth Paltrow and Chris Martin — being “presented to society” at a Paris debutante ball this past weekend?

The 20-year-old daughter of Gwyneth Paltrow and Chris Martin made headlines at the 2024 Le Bal des Debutantes in Paris.

Gwyneth Paltrow and Chris Martin’s daughter, Apple, is facing a backlash for an awkward moment at her debutante ball. Martin attended Le Bal des Débutantes in Paris on Saturday—known for debuting celebrity children and European royalty into society.

The 20-year-old made her debut in a powder blue Valentino Haute Couture gown, with the rest of her family also in designs from the Italian fashion house.

Apple Martin turned to Alessandro Michele, the creative director of Valentino, for a debutante dress to match the evening’s no-holds-barred grandeur.

Apple Martin debuted at Le Bal des Débutantes in Paris on Nov. 30 with her whole family by her side. Take a closer look at mom Gwyneth Paltrow's gorgeous Valentino gown for the event.

It was a full family affair as the 20-year-old stepped into society joined by her famous parents and brother Moses.

Apple Martin debuted at Le Bal des Débutantes in Paris over the weekend, no doubt making parents Gwyneth Paltrow and Chris Martin very proud. Everything appeared to go off without a hitch, until the internet decided that Apple was being kind of bratty (original definition) based on a couple of viral videos taken at the ball.
