Gwyneth Paltrow's Daughter Apple Martin Addresses Longstanding Rumors She Got Expelled From School For Cruel Mean Girl Style Bullying

Apple Martin is finally talking about THAT rumor.

In case you’re unaware, Gwyneth Paltrow and Chris Martin‘s daughter has been the subject of some bullying rumors over the years. People have long heard the claim she supposedly got expelled from her prestigious private school in Los Angeles for allegedly being a mean girl, and a more recent allegation stemmed from all the drama that came with her debutante ball back in 2024. These stories have been following the 21-year-old for a while, but now she’s facing them head-on.

In an Instagram Stories post on Monday, Apple shared a screenshot of a comment she made, saying it was a “quick little message from myself”. In the comment, she explained that this rumor that she was expelled for bullying was fake:

“Hi! I didn’t wanna respond but this narrative is completely false and has gotten so out of hand. I have never been expelled from any school, especially not for bullying anyone.”

She continued on to say she understands she’s in the public eye, but she felt the need to clarify this narrative:

“I completely understand ppl not liking me and that is okay! The internet is a place where ppl 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.
