The 21-year old model posted a message on her Instagram story, dismissing the rumours which she said had "gotten so out of hand".

Rumours began to swirl in 2024 when videos circulated online of Martin at her debutante debut ball in Paris.

One of the videos showed Martin appearing to jump into the photo of a fellow debutante, causing her to step to the side.

Martin shared a screenshot of a comment she left on the social media platform, appearing to respond directly to someone making claims about her.

The post said: "I didn't wanna respond but this narrative is completely false and has gotten so out of hand.

"I have never been expelled from any school, especially not for bullying anyone.

"I completely understand ppl not liking me and that is okay! The internet is a place where ppl can share their opinions.

"But this rumour is completely untrue, I am not that type of person and anyone who is close to me knows that."

Her mother, Paltrow, is the Oscar-winning actress known for Shakespeare in Love, the Iron Man franchise, Sliding Doors and the new sport drama Marty Supreme who she stars alongside Timothee Chalamet.

Martin's parents announced their divorce in 2014 which made headlines for describing it as a "conscious uncoupling".
