Salma Hayek recently shared photos from her elegant wedding to her billionaire husband Francois-Henri Pinault, marking their 15th anniversary. The couple had a small courthouse ceremony in Paris on Valentine’s Day 2009, followed by a grander celebration in April of that year. Hayek expressed gratitude for finding her soulmate and encouraged others not to give up in their search for love. The actress shared pictures of herself in a white corset, her two wedding gowns, and at the altar with Pinault.
Friend Jessica Alba commented on the post, noting the love between Hayek and Pinault. Viola Davis also showed her support for the couple. Hayek, who initially rejected two marriage proposals from Pinault out of fear, admitted in recent interviews to having a phobia of marriage. She revealed that her family intervened to ensure she went through with the wedding. Despite her nervousness, Hayek eventually said yes and started a family with Pinault.
The couple now has a 16-year-old daughter named Valentina. Pinault, the CEO of Kering, which manages luxury brands like Gucci, Saint Laurent, and Balenciaga, enjoys spending his $7 billion fortune on lavish trips and stunning mansions for his famous wife and family. Hayek had previously spoken about feeling nervous and hesitant to go through with the wedding, despite agreeing to marry Pinault. Ultimately, with the support of her family, she overcame her fears and began a life with Pinault.
The photos shared by Hayek provide a glimpse into their special day, showcasing the love and elegance of their relationship. It is evident that Hayek and Pinault have a strong bond, with support and admiration from their friends and fans. Their unique love story and journey to marriage highlight the importance of overcoming fears and doubts in pursuit of true love.
