Apple Martin, Gwyneth Paltrow’s 20-year-old daughter, made headlines at the Le Bal des Débutantes in Paris when a TikTok video captured a seemingly awkward moment with her date, Count Leo Henckel von Donnersmarck. The video shows the 19-year-old nobleman playfully mimicking dance moves while chatting with Apple. However, the fun moment quickly turned to a viral reaction as Apple visibly rolled her eyes at his playful gesture before the couple walked off to enter the ballroom of the Hotel Shangri-La.

Despite the moment, Apple looked stunning in a strapless blue Valentino dress and an elegant updo. Earlier in the evening, she also gained attention for jumping into a fellow debutante’s photo, striking playful poses.
Apple's parents, Gwyneth Paltrow and Coldplay's Chris Martin, made a rare appearance together at the ball, posing for a photo with their daughter. In a sweet moment, Chris Martin also shared a slow dance with Apple, highlighting their close father-daughter bond.
Apple, who is believed to attend Vanderbilt University, was joined by other notable “nepo babies” at the event, including Nicole Ari Parker's daughter, Sophie. The exclusive Parisian debutante ball, attended by honorees aged 16 to 22, featured high-profile guests and their noble “cavaliers” like Leo Henckel von Donnersmarck, who is the son of acclaimed director Florian Henckel von Donnersmarck.
The viral video and Apple's chic debut have certainly captured the public's attention, further adding to the buzz surrounding the event.
