Gwyneth Paltrow made her iconic debut on “Glee” as substitute teacher Holly Holliday in 2010 during the aptly named episode “The Substitute.” This was in the show’s second season, during its heyday. Holly was a flighty, cool substitute that kind of flitted around the school, filling in for various subjects and lending her relaxed teaching style to each. She has a steamy tryst with Will Schuester after substituting for his Spanish classes with her well-known greeting, “¡Hola, clase!” Paltrow ended up appearing in a total of five “Glee” episodes. Brad Falchuk was one of the executive producers and creators of the series, and as he told Harper’s Bazaar in 2020, the two of them had “similar enough backgrounds,” so they “developed this really lovely friendship.”
When she was first a guest star, Paltrow was still married to Chris Martin, lead singer of Coldplay, according to People. Falchuk was also married at the time, to Suzanne Bukinik, an executive producer on “According to Jim.” Paltrow famously announced her and Martin’s divorce in 2014, saying they had a “conscious uncoupling,” and Bukinik divorced Falchuk in 2013. After the two were both single at the same time, Paltrow and Falchuk started publicly dating in 2015 and got married in 2018. As Page Six reported, they both had two kids from their previous marriages, which can come with its own set of challenges.
