Apple Martin brought her divorced parents back together on Friday when she graduated from prestigious Vanderbilt University in Nashville.
Both Gwyneth Paltrow and her ex-husband Chris Martin attended the ceremony held at FirstBank Stadium, 12 years after their infamous ‘conscious uncoupling.’
Also in attendance was Paltrow’s second husband, TV producer Brad Falchuk, whom she wed in 2018.
Apple’s younger brother, Moses, who is a sophomore at Brown University, was also pictured at the event.
Apple, 21, looked every inch the perfect graduate as she strolled along with her famous blended family, wearing a black gown over a white dress with Ray-Ban sunglasses.
The budding model began began studying at the university back in 2022 and majored in Law, History and Society. Vanderbilt is one of the most elite colleges in the country, with an acceptance rate of just 5.3%.

Proud mom Paltrow looked chic at the ceremony, wearing a pale blue dress with a button-down red jacket and matching scarlet high heels. The Oscar-winning blonde could hardly keep the smile off her face as she watched her daughter graduate.
Meanwhile, Falchuk was a model step-dad, clad in a navy sweater over a pale blue shirt and berry-colored tie with dark beige slacks and brown suede boots.
Apple took to her Insta Stories to share a photo where she was in her cap and gown with black sunglasses on. She held up her diploma as she smiled but did not add a caption.
There was no sign on Paltrow’s mother, Emmy winning actress Blythe Danner.

Though she has pursued theater as a member of the Vanderbilt Original Cast and has directed student productions, Apple was not a drama major.
However, she has already secured a top Hollywood agent at powerhouse agency CAA, and has detailed her dreams of becoming an actress.
Last year, Apple told Interview Magazine how she loves theater ‘more than anything’.
‘I would love to do theater because I adore it so much. I’ve obviously never done film before, but I’ve been trying to get involved in student films. I was born a theater kid.’
‘I don’t wanna be a singer. I like musical theater, but getting onstage by yourself to sing is so terrifying, I love dancing and I love acting. My dream is to act.’
Paltrow was wed to Martin from 2003 until 2016. She went on to marry Falchuk in 2018

Meanwhile, Apple previously made headlines after it was claimed that she had been expelled from her elite Los Angeles high school for bullying – allegations she later denied.
Addressing the claims on Instagram last year, she said: ‘Hi! I didn’t wanna respond but this narrative is completely false and has gotten so out of hand. I have never been expelled from any school, especially not for bullying anyone.
‘I completely understand ppl not liking me and that is okay! The internet is a place where ppl can share their opinions.’
Last week the graduate took to Instagram to show off her look during the graduation rehearsal
Her Oscar-winning mother said she was ‘SO proud!!’ of her mini-me child
‘But this rumor is completely untrue, I am not that type of person and anyone who is close to me knows that.’
Martin’s mother was the person who publicly announced in 2022 that her mini-me was beginning college. ‘My daughter went to college in the fall,’ began the blonde.
Paltrow also said that it was hard on her emotionally to say farewell to little Apple. ‘It was horrible. It was truly horrifying,’ she said. ‘I was sick to my stomach, bursting into tears.”
