    Chris Martin and Gwyneth Paltrow made sure daughter Apple doesn't feel "entitled to anything"

    The Coldplay singer and his Goop founder ex-wife - who have Apple, 21, and son Moses, 19, together - made sure to raise their children with a strong work ethic, which has made them "grateful" for opportunities in life


    Speaking to the Daily Telegraph newspaper, Apple said: "I constantly remind myself how grateful I am to have these opportunities.

    "I know this is not a normal way to grow up by any means.

    "But my parents did a really good job of instilling in me that I shouldn't be entitled to anything. I have to work."

    Apple - who is studying law, history and society at Vanderbilt University in Tennessee - has joined Self Portrait for a new fashion campaign, having appeared for Chanel at Paris Fashion Week and posed with her Hollywood star mother for GapStudio.

    However, by the time she turned 16 she had already started working in a clothes shop.

    Back in 2020, her dad Chris told Ellen DeGeneres: "It's her first job, and she's about to be 16 and she's making her way in the world and I'm so proud of her."

    Now, Apple has admitted she is doing what she can to have "a normal college experience".

    She told the newspaper: "Hanging out with my friends and trying to have a normal college experience makes me feel more normal.

    "That's how I like to unwind. We'll sit down and do little guitar playing sessions, one person will play and the others will sing.

    "I also love watching reality TV with my friends. There was one day we spent five hours on the couch and just watched old episodes of America's Next Top Model."
