Billionaire heiress Peyton Spaht shares what really happened with Apple Martin at ‘nepo baby’ ball

San Francisco billionaire heiress Peyton Spaht has revealed what really happened with Gwyneth Paltrow’s daughter Apple Martin during the ‘nepo baby’ ball in Paris this past weekend.

Spaht joined Martin at Le Bal des Débutantes at the Shangri-La in Paris on Saturday, an annual gathering that invites young women from some of the prestigious – and wealthiest – families from Europe, Asia, Africa and the U.S. to make their debut into society.

However, Spaht and Martin made headlines when the red-haired high school student ‘stole the attention’ from the famous teen. 

Hello! Magazine shared a snap of all the ladies dressed in their glamorous ball gowns to Instagram, and many people took to the comment section to gush over how beautiful they looked. 

And while some users praised Martin, who donned a strapless blue Valentino Haute Couture gown, many of the complimentary comments were for the mysterious redhead – who has been identified as Spaht – who stood next to her. 

But interestingly enough, the redhead was the only debutante not featured in the Hello! Magazine article. 

Now, however, onlookers have been given a look into what really happened that night in Paris – and it looks like there isn’t any bad blood between the two.

In a post on her TikTok, Spaht gave a behind-the-scenes look of the night, including a few moments where she posed with Martin.

She and Martin leaned into the camera together and made kissy-faces, with the Goop goddess’ daughter even sticking her tongue out to the side at the end.

Later, Martin also entered the back of another clip Spaht took, alongside fellow debutante Lucia Ponti – who is Sophia Loren’s granddaughter – as she threw her arms up in the air and began to dance. 

Spaht donned a Dolce & Gabbana velvet, strapless gown for the party, which came complete with a long, flowing skirt that contained a pattern that featured a painting.

Spaht was accompanied by Constantin d’Orléans, the son of Duke Charles-Louis d’Orléans, at the ball. 

A previous article by Hello! said that she ‘hails from one of the richest families in San Francisco.’

Her family reportedly founded EWG:HS, a ‘national club focused on influencing global brands to ban harmful chemicals in products that are still approved by the FDA.’

According to Forbes, her 50-year-old father, Holden, is worth a whopping $3.7 billion and is the managing partner of private equity firm, Thoma Bravo.

The company is ‘one of the largest software-focused investors in the world with a 40+ year history and approximately $166 billion in assets under management as of September 30, 2024.’

Her father is also board chair of Spaht’s school and is married to Claire, who is an artist, philanthropist, and art collector.

The debutante ball isn’t the only part of her life that Spaht has shared on social media.

In another video posted to TikTok recently, she shared some clips from her lavish eighteenth birthday party spent with her friends.

In addition to being treated to matching navy blue patterned pajama sets, gift bags with custom makeup pouches, and other goodies, the ladies appeared to attend a Sabrina Carpenter concert together.

Her birthday also featured a gorgeous sit-down outdoor dinner, with the table covered in colorful, lush flowers, as well as a night in wearing the pajamas.

They also indulged in a s’mores bar, popcorn in adorable movie-theater containers, an array of sushi rolls, and her birthday cake, which was made in the shape of a heart, frosted with pink icing and covered in flowers that matched the venue’s tablescape.

Later in the clip, Spaht also showed viewers a couch full of wrapped presents, and a decorated kitchen for her special 18th birthday.
