Gwyneth Paltrow opened up about how her children responded to her onscreen kiss with Timothée Chalamet in the upcoming film Marty Supreme, which is set for release this Christmas. The focus of the online conversation shifted to Gwyneth Paltrow kids reaction after the pair’s kissing scene gained attention when photos from the shoot went viral last year.
Apple and Moses React Differently to the Viral Kiss
Paltrow stars alongside Chalamet in Marty Supreme, a film directed by Josh Safdie, where she portrays Kay Stone, a retired actress and socialite, while Chalamet plays the aspiring ping pong champion Marty Mauser. Although the movie is yet to hit theaters, behind-the-scenes images showing Paltrow and Chalamet sharing a kiss have already stirred discussions on social media.
While public reactions varied, it was the attitudes of her children—Apple, 21, and Moses, 19—that caught particular interest. During a conversation with The Hollywood Reporter, Paltrow revealed the direct responses from each of her kids.
“I mean, my daughter’s so cool and so punk rock that she’s like, ‘Mom, this is awesome!’”
—Apple. In contrast, her son expressed embarrassment:
“And my son was like, ‘Oh my God, I don’t want to see this.’”
—Moses. According to Paltrow, Moses was notably embarrassed about the scene.
Paltrow Shares Her Kids’ Perspective on Her Career
Despite this awkwardness, Paltrow noted that both Apple and Moses are now old enough to distinguish her film work from her role at home, and they have grown more interested in seeing her new projects. She remarked,
“actually excited to see this film because now they’re grown up and they can make this separation.”
—Gwyneth Paltrow. Still, she admitted,
“they’ll gag when I’m having a make-out scene, of course.”
—Gwyneth Paltrow. Furthermore, she disclosed,
“But it’s funny, they haven’t really seen me in movies.”
—Gwyneth Paltrow.
Paltrow also acknowledged her children’s preference for seeing her as their mother rather than as a public figure:
“Historically, they like me home, as mom, and they don’t like to engage with the outside perspective of who I am,”
—Gwyneth Paltrow.
The Film’s Anticipated Release and Final Thoughts
Marty Supreme has already captured public attention due to its all-star cast and the viral on-set moments. With Paltrow’s candid remarks about her children’s reactions and the movie’s Christmas debut on the horizon, anticipation continues to build. As Apple and Moses prepare to watch their mother’s latest role, their honest feedback illustrates the blend of support and awkwardness faced by children of actors, especially when private and public worlds overlap. The film is poised to add a new chapter to Paltrow’s career, while also giving her family another reason to share in her accomplishments—even if they do so from behind slightly embarrassed smiles.
