Gwyneth Paltrow revealed that her children have to break down internet memes for her because she does not understand the concept of their jokes.
The mother-of-two – who recently put on a hot look for the Cultured shoot – told the outlet that she has a hard time putting together most internet memes and reaches out to her son Moses, 18, and daughter Apple, 19 for help.
‘This one meme, “I’m baby,”‘ she said of a meme in question, ‘I’m like, “What the f—? What does that mean?” And then everyone tries to explain what “I’m baby” means. I finally got it.’
The 51-year-old Iron Man star added that she is getting more savvy online and is grateful her teenagers keep her in the loop.
When asked how she will manage the internet when her kids go off to college she said, ‘Luckily, I talk to my daughter multiple times a day, and I’m sure when Moses goes it will be the same.’

‘But in the meantime, until September, I have my son here to explain to me what all these things that pop up are,’ she went on.
‘In the fall, Brad [Falchuk] and I have boys that will be going off to university,’ the movie star said of her and her new husband’s children. ‘It’ll be interesting to see how the morning routine changes with no kids in the house.’
Still, she says she will miss having them around and coming to her internet rescue.
‘On the one hand, incredible sadness. A deep sense of impending grief,’ she admitted. ‘On the other hand, this is exactly what should be happening.
‘Your kids are supposed to be, you know, young adults who can achieve and cope and make connections and be resilient. That’s exactly what you want. And that means they leave the house.’
Paltrow shares Moses and Apple with ex-husband Chris Martin from Coldplay.
The pair said ‘I do’ in 2003 before ending their marriage in 2016.
The Los Angeles native told British Vogue, ‘We just didn’t quite fit together. But man, did we love our children.
‘Between the day that I knew and the day we finally relented to the truth, we tried everything. We did not want to fail. We didn’t want to let anyone down. We desperately didn’t want to hurt our children. We didn’t want to lose our family.’
In 2018, Gwyneth married screenwriter Brad Falchuk after hitting it off on the set of Glee.
When asked if she felt free of the male gaze post divorce, the actress said in an interview: ‘I love my husband so much, so that’s really shifted things for me.
‘I probably don’t walk into a room the way I used to walk into a room because of that. I feel really lucky. He’s a great guy, and he’s my best friend.’
The actress takes being a mom seriously as she told TODAY that she missed out on some big roles as she prioritized her kids, who she shared with ex-husband Chris.
‘There were a lot,’ Paltrow admitted.
‘I mean it’s funny because it didn’t feel like a sacrifice to me at the time, but if I look back at it through a cultural lens, I think like, wow, if people know that I didn’t do this movie or that movie, they’d be quite shocked,’ she said.

Gwyneth launched her own wellness and lifestyle brand Goop in 2008.
The company started as a weekly health newsletter which she wrote while she lived in London with her family.
She took the title of CEO in 2016 and promotes the brand frequently on social media.
