Imagine if someone in your group chat was seen kissing Timothée Chalamet in Central Park. Chaos, right? That’s exactly what happened in Gwyneth Paltrow’s mom group chats last year and, based on her version of the story, it still hasn’t really recovered.
In October 2024, paparazzi photos of Paltrow and Chalamet kissing while filming Marty Supreme surfaced online and apparently caused her group chats to descend into pandemonium. “All my mom group texts were like, oh my God!” she told Jimmy Fallon a month after the photos dropped. “They were on fire.” Paltrow also told Entertainment Tonight that the chats were “blowing up.” Now, as the actress is doing press for the release of the film, it sounds like her group chats are still in disarray.
Earlier this month, she again described the chaotic aftermath of the kissing photos hitting the internet. “I have my L.A. mom close friends and my English mummy friends, and they were all texting me,” she told The Hollywood Reporter. “They know I don’t look at any rubbish sites, so they’re all sending me these pictures, like, ‘Yessss, G.P!’ Everyone was thrilled.”
Then on Monday, she appeared on Good Morning America where she brought up how the moms were “pretty stoked” about the whole thing. “My British school moms, too,” she added. “It was like a global event, apparently.” I would love to know what these ladies thought of the Coldplay couple.
Paltrow brought a few members of her mommy group chat on the Goop podcast back in May to yap about parenthood and how having a child allows a mother to “birth into” themselves. On second thought, I’m sure they’ll get through this just fine.
