Apple Blythe Alison Martin (born 14 May 2004) is an English media personality, model, singer-songwriter, and socialite, who is the only daughter to Chris Martin and Gwyneth Paltrow.

Early life

Apple Blythe Alison Martin was born in London, England on 14 May 2004, as the elder child and only daughter to Coldplay frontman Chris Martin, and his then-wife, Gwyneth Paltrow, an actress and businesswoman. She has a younger brother, Moses Bruce Paltrow Martin (born 8 April 2006). Her maternal grandmother is Blythe Danner, an actress. Her parents divorced in 2016, when she was 12 years old.

Martin first came to media attention within hours of her birth due to her unique name. Her father and his band released a song called "I am your baby's daddy" under the name "the Nappies" in anticipation of her birth. Coldplay's "Speed of Sound" was also inspired by her father's experience and awe at becoming a first time father, being the lead single for the band's X&Y album. Simon Pegg and Jonny Buckland are her godfathers.

Martin attended Harvard-Westlake School in Los Angeles, California, leaving in 2017, after a series of incidents took place. She graduated from Crossroads School in Santa Monica, California in 2022. She has attended Vanderbilt University in Nashville, Tennessee, since September 2022. She is a member of the Kappa Kappa Gamma sorority.

Martin made her society debut at the Le Bal des Débutantes in Paris on 30 November 2024, wearing a custom blue Valentino gown that took the atelier 750 hours to make.

Career

Martin made her television debut at the age of two, in the third episode in the third season of the VH1 series VH1: All Access. The episode, "20 Cutest Celebrity Babies", was broadcast on 7 November 2006.

Martin appeared in the fourth episode of the Netflix documentary series The Goop Lab. The episode, "The Health-Span Plan", was released on 24 January 2020.

Martin made her debut as a model at Chanel's haute couture fashion show at Paris Fashion Week on 24 January 2023.

Martin is credited as a songwriter on the Coldplay single, "feelslikeimfallinginlove", featuring Zerb, from the bands tenth studio album, Moon Music. The song was released on 21 June 2024. She is credited as a singer on several of the bands songs and albums.
