Gwyneth Paltrow just made rare comments about her parenting style.
The Iron Man actress, who is a mother to two kids, daughter Apple, 20, and son Moses, 19, explained that she constantly encourages both of them to do what’s “true to themselves” even if she “doesn’t agree with it.”
At the Gwyneth Paltrow X Genesis House “The Forest Within” exhibition in New York City, she told PEOPLE magazine, “I think I really encourage them to be true to themselves and like to do what feels right to them.”
The Shakespeare in Love star continued, “I think like all the mistakes I made were being talked in or out of something.”
“I really want them, even if I don’t agree with it, like, I want them to be really true to their idea of their purpose and their individuality,” Gwyneth explained.
“She [Apple] still has another year of college, so, you know, I’m like right, soak it in, and you know, it goes really fast,” she added.
Gwyneth also talked about how she’s getting to see her kids more often, despite her rather packed schedule.
“You know, my son’s on, they’re both on the East Coast — well, he’s on the East Coast and she’s southeast. And I did a film here in the fall, and it was great ’cause I got to see my son and stepson, who were just very close by quite a lot, which was really nice,” she said.
It is pertinent to mention that Gwyneth Paltrow shares Apple and Moses with ex-husband, Coldplay front man, Chris Martin.
