Sounds like the apple doesn’t fall far from the tree when it comes Chris Martin’s two kids, who are both featured on Coldplay’s new album Music of the Spheres.
Coldplay released their space-themed concept album on Friday (Oct. 15), featuring A-list acts from BTS to Selena Gomez, as well as two familiar guests. Martin’s 15-year-old son Moses can be heard singing alongside his father on the chorus of “Humankind.” “I say I know I know I know, We’re only human/I know I know I know /How we’re designed, yeah /I know I know I know /We’re only human/But from another planet/ Still they call us Humankind.”
And on the Gomez collab, titled “Let Somebody Go,” the lead singer’s 17-year-old daughter Apple receives songwriting credits. And in the handwritten album’s credits, the Coldplay frontman drew small hearts next to both of his gifted children’s names.
Martin shares both children with his ex-wife Gwyneth Paltrow. After tying the knot in 2003, the superstar couple separated in 2014 before finalizing their divorce two years later.
This isn’t their children’s first foray into music. In 2015, Paltrow posted a video of a then-11-year-old Apple playing guitar and singing as she performed with a holiday choir. They also accompanied their father during a 2016 Boys and Girls Club benefit, with Apple performing a cover of Ariana Grande’s “Just a Little Bit of Your Heart” and Moses taking over Twenty One Pilots’ “House of Gold.”
