Even celebrity mums like Gwyneth Paltrow embarrass their teenagers sometimes.

Gwyneth Paltrow, 48, has left her daughter Apple, 16, embarrassed after posing completely naked in a celebratory birthday post.

The actress and businesswoman turned 48-years-old over the weekend, and decided to celebrate by stripping into her birthday suit.

Posing naked in a garden, the youthful star smiled as she showed off her incredible figure.

Sharing the picture on her Instagram page, Gwyneth wrote: "In nothing but my birthday suit today... thank you all so much for the birthday wishes and thank you to @goop ‘s insanely amazing brand new body butter for making me think I can still get my kit off."

Gwyneth's celebrity friends were quick to compliment her confidence, while her daughter Apple appeared less than impressed.

Apple – who the actress shares with ex-husband Chris Martin – commented on the post "MOM", to which Gwyneth replied cry-laughing emoji faces.

As it turns out, no matter how famous you are, parents are still embarrassing.
