Author: Alex RossPublished 15th May 2018
Now there's no denying that most children look like at least one of the parents, but sometimes kids are the spitting image of their mum or dad, and that's exactly the case for Gwyneth Paltrow's daughter Apple.
To celebrate Apple's 14th birthday, the American actress shared a rare photo of her daughter to her Instagram page, and fans couldn't get over just how much she looks like her famous mum. Alongside the photo, Gwyneth wrote, 'Happy birthday, my darling girl. You make everyday feel like Christmas morning. You are the most vibrant, hilarious, twirling all over the place, beautiful (inside and out) young woman. You are an amazing thinker and an incredible songwriter. Thanks for still hanging out with me, even though you are 14. sic
Fans were quick to comment on the stunning photo, one user wrote, 'Has your same face. Happy Birthday🍾🎈🍾' sic, with another writing, 'looks just like her mum'.

She certainly is the spitting image of her mum...
Gwyneth welcomed Apple into the world with her ex-husband Chris Martin in 2004, with the actress confirming her daughter's unusual name during an interview on Oprah.
She said at the time, "It sounded so sweet and it conjured such a lovely picture for me – you know, apples are so sweet and they're wholesome and it's biblical – and I just thought it sounded so lovely and ... clean! And I just thought, 'Perfect!'"
Two years later, the couple welcomed their second child together, a son called Moses.
After 10 years of marriage, Gwyneth announced she'd split from the Coldplay front man, with their divorce being finalised in July 2016. Despite this, the couple are still great friends.
