Apple Martin recently showered her dad with affection on account of a very special occasion. The 21-year-old took to social media to celebrate Chris Martin’s 49th birthday with a heartfelt tribute that melted fans’ hearts. Sharing never-before-seen snapshots from their lives throughout the years, she made it clear just how much the Coldplay frontman means to her.
Gwyneth Paltrow’s daughter Apple celebrates Chris Martin’s birthday with the sweetest photos

On February 2, Apple Martin honored her “hero” with a series of Instagram Stories featuring touching throwback and recent photos. In one sweet selfie, the father-daughter duo beamed side by side, radiating warmth and closeness. Over the image, she wrote simply, “My hero’s birthday ❤️,” keeping the message short yet deeply meaningful.
In another post, Apple shared additional family moments featuring her younger brother Moses, 19. One nostalgic snap showed the trio smiling together, while another captured a candid, affectionate pose. “Coolest dad in the world,” Apple wrote across the image. “I love you more than anything.”
Chris shares Apple and Moses with his ex-wife, actor Gwyneth Paltrow. The former couple, who were married for 13 years, have long been praised for their amicable co-parenting dynamic following their split. Despite going their separate ways, they continue to prioritize family milestones and celebrations.
Last year, Paltrow also marked Martin’s birthday with her own heartfelt tribute. She posted photos of Chris spending quality time with their children, including a tender father-daughter moment and a quiet piano session with Moses. “Happy Birthday to the man that gave me these beautiful, wonderful human beings,” she captioned at the time. “We?you, Chris.”
As Martin turns 49, it’s clear his bond with his children remains front and center. From sweet throwbacks to present-day snapshots, Apple’s tribute proves that family continues to be his greatest encore.
