In a recent Instagram Story photo, Gwyneth Paltrow’s 17-year-old son, Moses, bears a striking resemblance to his father, Chris Martin. The mother-son snapshot, posted on Tuesday, captures Moses standing next to the Goop creator. He dons a short-sleeve shirt, black tie, and matching shorts, complemented by black sunglasses resting atop his head and red sneakers. With his shaggy hairstyle, Moses exudes a charm reminiscent of his father’s. Paltrow, on the other hand, poses beside Moses, wearing a striped top and white shorts, and holding a book in her hand. Fans took to Twitter to express their awe, with one even drawing comparisons between Moses and how Martin looked in 2000.
A Rare Glimpse into Moses’ Life
Paltrow, who rarely shares photos of her son, welcomed Moses into the world in 2006, together with Coldplay frontman Chris Martin. The Oscar winner recently celebrated Moses’ birthday with a heartfelt Instagram tribute. In April, Paltrow posted a selfie with the caption, “Happy 17th birthday to the boy that fills my soul up every time I look at him. @mosesmartin. You are the most exceptional, kind, loving human being. You keep us all laughing with your perfect impressions and inspire us with your harmonies. I deeply adore you more than you could ever imagine!” Alongside Moses, Paltrow is also the proud mother of her 19-year-old daughter, Apple.
Navigating Post-Divorce Life
Gwyneth Paltrow and Chris Martin tied the knot in 2003 but “consciously uncoupled” 11 years later, finalizing their divorce in 2015. Paltrow has since married Brad Falchuk, the co-creator of “Glee,” while Martin is in a relationship with “Fifty Shades of Grey” star Dakota Johnson. Although the former couple rarely discusses their marriage, Paltrow humorously mentioned on a January episode of the “Goop” podcast that raising young children can sometimes “ruin” a relationship. Despite any challenges, Paltrow and Martin have demonstrated their amicable co-parenting skills over the years. Paltrow even confessed during an appearance on the “Drew Barrymore Show” in 2020 that their dynamic is not always as flawless as it may seem.
By sharing this adorable snapshot of Moses, Gwyneth Paltrow allows fans a glimpse into the life of her rarely seen son. With his uncanny resemblance to his father, Chris Martin, Moses is undoubtedly a chip off the old block. As Paltrow and Martin navigate their separate lives, they continue to prioritize their children and maintain a respectful co-parenting relationship.
