Apple Martin, the daughter of Gwyneth Paltrow and Chris Martin, has firmly denied circulating rumors about her expulsion from school due to bullying.

The 21-year-old, often referred to as a “nepo baby,” addressed these claims as ‘entirely false’ in a statement she posted on her Instagram Stories on Monday.

As she outlined her future plans following college, Martin shared a personal note to clear the air, stating, “I just wanted to quickly address this myself.”

She explained, “Hello! I initially hesitated to respond, but this story has spiraled out of control and is not true at all,” in a direct message to an unnamed source.

“I have never faced expulsion from any school, and certainly not for bullying anyone,” she clarified.

Martin expressed her understanding of public opinion, saying, “I completely get that some people might not like me, and that’s alright! The internet is a platform for people to express their views.”

‘But this rumor is completely untrue, I am not that type of person and anyone who is close to me knows that ❤️.’

In 2024, Martin faced bullying accusations after a video showed her seemingly attempting to crash a fellow debutante’s photo shoot and roll her eyes at her date at the Le Bal des Debutantes in Paris.

Afterwards, a source close to Paltrow told DailyMail.com that her daughter is a ‘girls’ girl’ not a ‘mean girl’.

‘Apple’s more playful and fun and she’s really a total girls’ girl,’ the source said.

‘She would never mean to take the spotlight from anyone, that was not her intention. To characterize her as a mean girl is very untrue.

‘She really had such a wonderful evening and I feel bad that this is even taking away from that because it was such an uplifting evening for her and the other girls.’

The Vanderbilt student went viral over footage said to show her making a brazen play for a photographer’s attention while another attendee had her photo taken.

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

But the source insisted to DailyMail.com that Martin has a ‘good rapport’ with her aristocratic escort.

‘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.’

Earlier this month Martin revealed that she has changed her post-college plans in an interview with Vogue, and instead of attending law school plans to follow in her famous mom’s footsteps as an actress.

Martin will graduate from Vanderbilt University in May with a degree in law, history and society.

Speaking of her prior plans of going into law school, she explained: ‘I was in that rebellious “I don’t wanna be like my parents” type of phase.’

She also clarified that she will not pursue becoming a musician like her dad, who’s the frontman of Coldplay. 

‘I don’t wanna be a singer. I like musical theater, but getting onstage by yourself to sing is so terrifying,’ she said.

‘I love dancing and I love acting. My dream is to act.’

Martin also revealed the cosmetic enhancements she has undergone in a video for Vogue’s YouTube channel.

‘Time to come clean. I got lip filler one time,’ the showbiz legacy said. ‘I think I got it when I was 18. I just thought that it was too big.’

She observed that, ‘Everyone seems to think that I have crazy lip filler,’ and insisted that in reality, ‘I just pout my lips a lot and I put on a lot of lip liner.’

Paltrow split from Martin in 2014 in what she provoked widespread mockery by describing the separation as ‘conscious uncoupling’, but the pair remained friendly co-parents.

They also share son Moses, 19, together. 

Apple has been emerging into the public eye in recent years, making her fashion show debut in 2023 sitting at the front row of the Chanel extravaganza in Paris.
