Chris has also found happiness since his divorce from Gwyneth three years ago, dating actress Dakota Johnson.
Dakota and Chris regularly spend time with Gwyneth and Chris, with the two actresses pictured hanging out together after the Avengers: Endgame premiere in LA last month.
Gwyneth kick-started the birthday messages for Apple as she wished her 'strong, funny, and gorgeous' daughter a happy 15th on Tuesday.

But the post had to be approved by her feisty teen first, as the actress also shared a screenshot of her hilarious text exchange with Apple.
The messages saw Gwyneth's daughter send 'options of Apple approved birthday posts,' for her mother to share with her 10.2m followers.
'Oh why thank you,' Gwyneth wrote back, while teasing, 'Don't need to break the old Internet again, now do we?' 'Yeah let's not,' Apple replied.
'Happy 15th birthday my angel @applemartin!' the 46-year-old Oscar winner captioned the approved snap liked by supermodel Naomi Campbell, Paris Hilton and Selma Blair among others.

'I will never be able to put into words how much I love you. You are so strong and so good and so damn funny and sooooo gorgeous inside and out. I am the proudest mama ever. Feliz quinceañera mi vida!'
The text exchange comes after Gwyneth got into trouble back in March when she shared a rare selfie with look-a-like daughter on Instagram.
Apple commented on the selfie, which was taken as the pair were riding a ski lift up a mountain: 'Mom we have discussed this. You may not post anything without my consent.'
Gwyneth replied: 'You can't even see your face!'
