Lawyers read deposition excerpts from Moses and Apple Martin, Paltrow's two children from a previous marriage with Coldplay frontman Chris Martin, who had been unable to testify in court due to scheduling issues.
They both claimed not to have witnessed the collision but recalled some colorful reactions post-crash from the "Goop" creator at a ski lodge, before she jetted off to a spa.
In a deposition, Paltrow's daughter Apple Martin, 18, said that she did not witness the crash but heard "some sort of screaming," in the distance, and was debriefed when her mother joined her and her instructor at the ski lodge at the end of the ski run 5 to 10 minutes after the collision.
"She told us what happened," Apple Martin said in the deposition. "She came in and I noticed she looked a bit shocked, and said 'this A-hole ran into me, ran right into my back.'"
At the ski lodge where they ate lunch after the collision, Apple Martin said they were joined by Paltrow's then-boyfriend and now-husband Brad Falchuk, her brother, and their ski instructors.
"She said she wouldn't ski for the rest of the day…she always stays on," Apple Martin said. "I never see her shaken up like that, and she had some sort of pain, and I remember that's why she went to the spa to get a massage."
