Apple Martin is drowning out the noise.
Nearly five months after the 20-year-old—daughter of Gwyneth Paltrow, 52, and Chris Martin, 48—faced criticism while participating in a prestigious ball in Paris, she revealed she no longer interacts with online hate comments.
“Even if you see a million positive things, there can be one thing that absolutely wrecks you,” Apple explained to Interview magazine in a conversation published April 2. “I’ve stopped now and I avoid it like the plague, because I know myself. I know that if I see stuff that isn’t true and that’s really upsetting to me, I’m going to be like, ‘Oh my god, I should never go out in public again.’”
The model was open about her experience with critics online, noting she first read negative rumors about herself after attending Chanel’s fashion show in 2023. And though she’s practicing this new vow, the model did subtly react to the “mean girl” allegations she endured last November with a lip sync video.
