Gwyneth Paltrow admires single parents.

The Hollywood star - who has two children, two-year-old Apple and Moses, four months, with Coldplay frontman Chris Martin - says she doesn't know how one parent families cope.

She told Harper's Bazaar magazine: "I do not know how single mothers have more than one child with no help.

"It requires so much of my life, and I don't have to change sheets and clean toilets, you know. My hat goes off - no, my clothes go off to the single mother with no help. I stand naked, bowing before her."

Meanwhile, the actress has revealed her daughter is a huge Madonna fan.

The 'Shakespeare in Love' actress says Apple can't get enough of the singer's latest hit.

She said: "My daughter loves Madonna's 'Hung Up', but she calls it 'So Slowly'.

"We have to listen to it again and again."
