Gwyneth Paltrow Shines a Light on Family Summer Memories With Ex Chris Martin and Their Kids
Gwyneth Paltrow and Chris Martin’s summer was a total paradise.
Indeed, the former couple—who share kids Apple, 20, and Moses, 18—enjoyed plenty of adventures as a family this season, as Gwyneth proved in a recent social media post.
The Goop founder wrote in her Sept. 2 Instagram post, aptly soundtracked to “Real Love Baby” by Father John Misty, “Summer was good to us.”
In the video, Gwyneth included highlights with both her kids, former spouse, and current husband Brad Falchuk. In addition to romantic moments with Brad, the 51-year-old shared a few selfies with her 20-year-old daughter, as well as a snap of her son enjoying an art museum and another photo of him sitting on Chris’ lap.
Summer clearly took the Paltrow-Martin family to cloud nine, as Gwyneth also featured several pictures of the family on a plane ride, including picturesque views of Manhattan’s skyline and a selfie with Moses as they both donned aviation headsets.
And while Gwyneth’s family highlights were particularly sweet, she also highlighted some of her own friend moments—including a selfie with pal Reese Witherspoon.
Since their 2016 divorce, Gwyneth and Chris have proved to have a peaceful coparenting dynamic. And Gwyneth has not been shy about supporting her former husband in his own romances, either. After all, she previously spoke out about how much she adores Chris’ fiancée, Dakota Johnson.
“I love her so much,” Gwyneth wrote in an October Instagram Q&A. “She’s an adorable, wonderful person. We’re actually very good friends.”
Of course, the Shakespeare in Love actress has noted before that her friendly relationship with her ex didn’t come naturally—but the couple have made a conscious effort to remain on good terms for the sake of their two children, citing the impact unfriendly exes have on their children.
“Chris and I just said, 'Let's just never do that,’” she explained to People in 2023. “‘Let's try to get through the hard part of this and remember our friendship.’” As she added of Chris, “He's like my family.”
