Apple Martin, daughter of celebrities Gwyneth Paltrow and Chris Martin, has firmly denied rumors suggesting she was expelled from school for bullying.
In a response to a comment on Instagram, which she later posted as a screenshot to her Instagram Story on Monday, February 16, the 21-year-old Martin stated, “Hi! I didn’t want to respond but this narrative is completely false and has gotten so out of hand,” according to a report from Page Six. She clarified, “I have never been expelled from any school, especially not for bullying anyone.”
Currently attending Vanderbilt University, Martin elaborated, “I completely understand people not liking me and that is okay! The internet is a place where people can share their opinions. But this rumor is completely untrue, I am not that type of person and anyone who is close to me knows that ❤️.”
Along with the bullying rumors circulating online, Martin was also called out for her supposed “mean girl” behavior in December 2024 after video surfaced of her at Le Bal des Débutantes, when cameras caught Martin crashing a fellow debutant Aliénor Loppin de Montmort’s photos and rolling her eyes.
Supporting Martin’s character, de Montmort told People, “Apple’s genuinely the nicest girl ever! She really doesn’t deserve an ounce of what she’s getting.” De Montmort added, “She was the nicest girl ever towards not only me but all the debs!”
