Gwyneth Paltrow will soon be living life away from the spotlight. The Oscar winner revealed that she intends to exit the public eye after selling her wellness company, Goop, in a few years. But she has “no idea” who would purchase her business.
“We’re not ready to sell yet. I need a few more years,” she noted in a Bustle cover story out Oct. 18, adding that she’d be “happy” with the idea of making a big exit for her 55th birthday in 2027.
“I will literally disappear from public life,” Paltrow continued. “No one will ever see me again.”
While acknowledging that she doesn’t appreciate being a celebrity, the 51-year-old clarified that she does enjoy certain aspects of her work, such as “creating, collaborating, being struck with new ideas, innovating, thinking ahead, strategy, vision, that kind of thing.”
She made it clear that money is not her driving force, despite the fact that Goop was valued at $250 million in 2018, according to a person close to the business that informed The New York Times at the time.
“I could never get attracted to the really rich guy,” the actress, who is married to producer Brad Falchuk, told Bustle. “And I don’t make choices to build value in the wrong way. I’ve always done independent films. I don’t know. Money has never been my thing. It’s never been my driver.”
Her current priority is assisting her stepson Brody Falchuk and 17-year-old son Moses Martin with their senior year of high school and college applications, referring to it as a “full-time job in and of itself.”
Regarding her daughter Apple Martin, 19, who Paltrow has with her ex-husband Chris Martin and Moses, the 19-year-old has been making an effort to accept the typical college experience, which includes being a part of a sorority. despite the fact that “there’s this whole nepo baby culture, and judgment that exists around kids of famous people,” Paltrow claimed that Apple is “really just a student” that “wants to be a kid and be at school and learn.”
And as the daughter of Blythe Danner and Bruce Paltrow, the Avengers actress shared there’s “nothing wrong” with pursuing the same career as your family members.
