Gwyneth Paltrow called her grandmother a c*nt on national television.
Smiling as they posed up next to each other, Gwyneth Paltrow and her grandmother Katharine Danner looked every inch the picture of family contentment at the premiere of Great Expectations in 1998.
But things were clearly not as happy below the surface, as Gwyneth proved earlier this week when she labelled Katharine a 'c*nt' on a U.S. talk show Chelsea Lately.
Katharine, who died in 2006 aged 96, was the German mother of Gwyneth's mother Blythe Danner.
Married to bank executive Harry Earl Danner, Katharine lived in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, and became a housewife after raising her children - Blythe, Harry and Dottie.
She is believed to have followed the Quaker faith, as Blythe has previously spoken about being raised a Quaker and attending a Quaker secondary school.
However, just weeks after tracing her family tree in the U.S. version of Who Do You Think You Are?, Gwyneth revealed on showbusiness chat show Chelsea Lately that Katharine had been at the centre of a family feud before her death.
Stunning viewers with a C-word outburst, Gwyneth and host Chelsea Handler were discussing their respective German grandmothers, whom they both called Mutti, the German for mother, when Gwyneth said: ‘My Mutti was a real c*nt.’
The expletive was bleeped out but the actress could clearly be seen mouthing it.
After Gwyneth made the comment, Chelsea began laughing and some of the audience cheered.
Explaining the fractured relationship, Gwyneth said: ‘She just hated my guts, basically. She tried to poison my mother against me but it didn’t work because I have a great mother.’
'She was just tough. You look back and you think she must not have been very happy and she must have had a lot of pain because she was as mean as hell.’
Earlier this month, Gwyneth looked into her family tree on Who Do you Think You Are - the U.S. version of the hit British programme - and travelled to Barbados to find out about her heritage.

well sometimes your parents or grandparents can be cunts. Lets not act like everyone has the perfect family and everyone gets along. Some families are ean as hell to each other and cant stand one another.
^^^*mean*
Gwyneth is an arrogant asshole! Raised in wealth & spoiled rotten she has no fucking manners & is self absorbed. Her grandmother isn't alive anymore, the least she could do was give her spirit respect...but NO she goes on TV and calls her a c*nt for public entertainment. When her sorry ass marriage ends and its on it's last leg...we can all laugh. She makes me sick!
What happened to respecting your elders. Hell my mothers mom was mean as hell. But I had much respect. I did not call names or label her period.
Not only that I would of had no teeth. My family does not play when it comes to respecting an elder alive or dead.
I don't care how ignorant rude or mean the woman was you do not call your granny a fucking cunt - Gwyneth is a dumb bitch with emotional issues... why else owuld she name her child after a fucking fruit....
The woman could have been the biggest bitch on legs but that is some shit you keep private cause if that cunt didn't have your momma your ass wouldn't be here now and for that alone you owe her.
co-sign with posters 12:07pm to 1:30pm down because you all have said the same thing i would have typed here on this blog.
A cunt is cunt so be it ! Chelsea called her grandmother a bitch so what's the difference. Hell she proably gave her respect when she was alive, she now so fuck it.
What an ill mannered ho!
Hey, she was probably right, look at her.
Those genes come from somewhere.
^^^LOL!
if you don't have something nice to say, don't say anything.

you people don't know her relationship with her grandmother.
I hate that word; WORST word ever!
I WOULD NEVER call any one from my family a cunt let alone on national TV, I think she just wanted Chelsey to think shes cool!

My first real memory of my great grandma is of her wipping my but. Don't know what for but I wouldn't call her a cunt. One needs to ask why her granny would try to "poison" her mother against her there's always 2 sides to a story. Plus old people tend to be loopy and irrational. Gwens the one who seems like a cunt.

You sound so crude. That's what happens when you're raised by a pack of wolves. Hope you never have children. What an example you would be.
