Gwyneth Paltrow shared a photo of her daughter Apple to celebrate a major milestone.
Posting on Instagram this morning, the 49-year-old actress and founder of lifestyle company Goop wrote that she was “a little speechless” recognizing her eldest son’s 18th birthday.
“I couldn’t be more proud of the woman you are. You are everything I could have dreamed of and more,” the post read.
“Pride doesn’t cover it, my heart fills with feelings I can’t put into words. You are profoundly extraordinary in every way. Happy Birthday my dear.
“I hope you know how special you are and how much light you’ve brought to everyone lucky enough to know you. Especially me. I say this all the time and I will never stop… in Aunt Drew’s words, I was born the day you were born. I love you. Mommy.”
The daughter of Paltrow and her ex-husband, Coldplay frontman Chris Martin, Apple also has a younger brother, Moses, 16.
Paltrow previously revealed that it was Martin who came up with his daughter’s unique name.
“Her dad came up with the name and I fell in love. I found it original and cool. I can’t imagine her being called anything else,” she shared last month during a Q&A on her Instagram story.
While the teens have been kept out of the public eye and have private social media accounts, Paltrow last month also shared a birthday tribute to her son.
