Gwynnie’s Christmas goodies? A £213k book and £400 handcuffs

- By Dominique Hines

SHE’S been accused of being out of touch with reality due to the bizarre products of her ‘natural health’ company Goop.

But that hasn’t stopped Gwyneth Paltrow laughing all the way to the bank as sales soared. The lifestyle brand is now worth nearly £200million after only 11 years in business.

And Hollywood star Miss Paltrow, 47, is still coming up with a baffling range of products. Her new festive gift guide includes a £213,000 book and a £400 pair of handcuffs. Goop’s 2019 Christmas list features the Shakespear­e in Love star’s pricey picks in sections such as ‘The Lover’s Gift Guide’ and ‘The One Who Has Everything’. There’s also a section called ‘The Ridiculous But Awesome Gift Guide’, which

‘£58,000 for holiday photos’

includes a £194,000 reservatio­n for Virgin Galactic’s trips to space, a £1,000 leather bondage kit, a £194 brass fire extinguish­er and a £100 marijuana joint roller. There’s also a £85,000 treehouse and a £12,000 tin of caviar.

The £213,000 book is a limited- edition copy of US author Norman Mailer’s MoonFire – about the Apollo 11 mission. It comes, apparently, with a piece of ‘lunar meteorite’. Other Goop offers include a £58,000 experience where photograph­ers document a family holiday and an ‘immersive music installati­on to make your plants sing.’

The Iron Man actress also recommends a £75 sex cushion. Goop was fined more than £100,000 in 2016 for misleading customers about the benefits of a jade vaginal egg.
