Bestselling author Amy Odell takes readers inside the world of one of the most influential, aspirational and polarising celebrities of the last thirty years.

Love her or hate her, Gwyneth Paltrow has remained magically entrenched on the A-list, her influence spanning entertainment, fashion and wellness. After winning an Oscar at just twenty-six years old, her immense privilege turned her into a target of backlash. She channelled that interest into valuable endorsement deals and film roles and eventually the founding of her controversial wellness company, Goop. She has participated in hundreds of carefully managed interviews, but the real Gwyneth - her unrelatability, privilege, motives, strengths and faults - has never been fully revealed until now.

Based on in-depth conversations with more than 215 sources, including close current and former friends and colleagues, this deeply researched biography provides insight and behind-the-scene details of her relationships, family, friendships, films and tenure as the CEO of Goop. Gwyneth offers a definitive look at how she got to where she is today and how she has managed to impact culture - for better and worse - for so long.
