Gwyneth Paltrow, 53, recently shared a series of photos on Instagram featuring herself and her daughter, 22-year-old Apple Martin, both in swimsuits. The images, captioned "Summer, so far so good," prompted comparisons between the mother and daughter, with many noting their resemblance.
Paltrow was seen wearing a black plunging swimsuit, while Martin sported a red and white striped string bikini. In accompanying photos, Paltrow also appeared topless while posing with snacks, showcasing her complexion. Another image captured Martin in a more casual outfit, checking out flowers in a garden.
Apple Martin, whose father is Coldplay frontman Chris Martin, is following in her mother's footsteps with an acting career. She is slated to make her acting debut in the upcoming romcom "Paris Paramount," a film directed by Nancy Meyers, known for hits like "The Parent Trap" and "Something's Gotta Give." Martin's role in the film, which tells the story of a young filmmaker and a producer, is yet to be announced. She was recently photographed on set in Los Angeles alongside actor Owen Wilson, who previously starred with Paltrow in "The Royal Tenenbaums" approximately 25 years ago.
Martin has been actively pursuing her acting aspirations, recently making a cameo in the HBO show "Rooster." She previously had ventures in modeling for brands like Gap and Chloé, and a brief singing career. However, she confirmed earlier this year that her focus has shifted to acting, moving past a phase where she expressed disinterest in following her parents' careers. Martin graduated from Vanderbilt University with a degree in law, history, and society.
Paltrow and Chris Martin were married in 2003 and announced their "conscious uncoupling" in 2014, finalizing their divorce in 2016. They have maintained a close co-parenting relationship with their two children, Apple and Moses, 20. Paltrow married television producer Brad Falchuk in 2018.
