Gwyneth has two children of her own, Apple, 18, and Moses, 16, who she shares with her ex-husband Chris Martin.

Earlier this week, the actress bid a fond farewell to the summer by sharing a series of new family photographs with fans – but one picture in particular really stood out.
Gwyneth, 49, posted a sweet snapshot showing her posing with her children and while Apple is the image of her famous mother, right down to their long blonde hair, Moses bears a strong resemblance to his musician dad and looked incredibly grown up as he posed with his mom and sister.
Earlier this year, Gwyneth paid a loving tribute to her firstborn as Apple celebrated her 18th birthday. The Shallow Hal star wrote: "18. I'm a bit of a loss for words this morning (crying face emoji). I could not be more proud of the woman you are. You are everything I could have dreamed of and so much more.

"Proud doesn't cover it, my heart swells with feelings I can't put in to words. You are deeply extraordinary in every way. Happy birthday my darling girl. I hope you know how special you are, and how much light you have brought to all who are lucky enough to know you. Especially me.
"I say it all the time and I will never stop… in the words of auntie Drew, I was born the day you were born. I love you. Mama."
