The famous actress Salma Hayek has never been in a hurry to get married. She married billionaire François-Henri Pinault when she was 42 years old.

A year after she gave birth to his daughter. By the way, the couple have more than one wedding anniversary, and recently the actress told why it happened.

Hayek and Pino got engaged in 2007 and only got married in 2009. So why did it take them so long to make this move?

Although two years is not so much. Jennifer Lopez and Ben Affleck walked down the aisle for 20 years.

Salma Hayek admitted that she was very afraid of marriage and could not decide on it: ‘In fact, I did not believe in marriage.

And I didn’t want to marry him [Pino].We set a date for the wedding several times, I agreed, and then did not come. But the worst thing is that he continued to insist on his own.

After several unsuccessful attempts to become Salma’s husband, Pino decided to work together with the bride’s family. Together, they came up with a plan that helped them become legal spouses in love.

‘I had no idea that I would get married that day. My parents and brother conspired against me. They just took me and dragged me to the ceremony. I was categorically against marriage,’ said the actress.

Relatives Pino and Hayek, in secret from the bride, organized a marriage registration at the registry office and a small party immediately after.

The actress did not take any part in this, for her that day everything was a big surprise.

‘They just dragged me there.I was so nervous. And then we went to dinner with his parents, said Salma.

‘My mother-in-law, who has great taste in such events, has already prepared everything. So I just didn’t have a choice.’

After Salma managed to cope with her fears and finally marry the man she loved, she even agreed to a more magnificent wedding:

‘I used to just say yes, and then I didn’t come. But since I was already officially married, there was no difference.

Moreover, after a while I even liked being a wife. And then he said: ‘Maybe then we’ll have a real wedding?’

Hayek and Pino officially got married in Paris on Valentine’s Day. And after 2 months, they had a big celebration

in Venice and invited many famous guests, including Penelope Cruz, Woody Harrelson, Charlize Theron and many others.

And then there were two more wedding parties. Hayek said that she and Pino had a third party because

she didn’t like the cake at her second wedding. And at their fourth ceremony, all relatives and friends gathered.

At all weddings, the actress looked simply gorgeous. Her own life hacks help her keep herself in shape.

Not so long ago, in an interview, the actress told a funny story. Salma found a message from a woman on her beloved’s phone.

At first she did not show it, and then made a huge scandal right at dinner. The husband suddenly became confused, and then began to laugh out loud.

It turns out that Pino decided to get rid of his accent and improve his English pronunciation. He did not have time for a live tutor,

so the businessman resorted to the services of a virtual assistant with a female voice. It was this message that Hayek listened to.

Everything ended well, but the actress admitted that her husband was clearly pleased with her jealousy.

Salma Hayek and Francois-Henri Pinault have been married for 14 years. The couple lives very happily and has a 15-year-old daughter, Valentina. Salma became a mother at 41.

Like many other celebrities, she was not afraid to give birth after 40. Fortunately, now women are moving away from imposed stereotypes and become happy mothers at any age.
