Fame and celebrity

  • Salma Hayek is private about her daughter but occasionally shares glimpses of her on Instagram, even wishing her a happy 14th birthday on the social media platform
  • Valentina’s dad is billionaire François-Henri Pinault, the CEO of luxury fashion group Kering that owns Gucci, Yves Saint Laurent and Balenciaga

The Los Angeles premiere of Marvel’s Eternals on October 18 was a star-studded event. But for Angelina Jolie and Salma Hayek Pinault, the glamorous affair was more of a bring your children to work day. Jolie graced the red carpet with her five kids in tow while Salma was accompanied by her mini-me, Valentina Paloma Pinault.

When Valentina stepped on the red carpet with her mum, many were surprised at how grown up she looked. After all, the 14-year-old seldom makes public appearances. According to W Magazine, this is the first time Valentina has joined the red carpet since 2015 when she attended a screening of The Prophet.

Much like Jolie and her daughter Shiloh Jolie-Pitt, the mother-and-daughter duo’s sartorial choices were in sync. Salma showed off her svelte figure in a black Gucci dress with a plunging neckline while Valentina looked sophisticated in a mini black and white polka dot Saint Laurent dress.

Now that she’s in her teens, will fans see Valentina in public more? And, other than being Salma Hayek’s daughter, what else should we know about her?

Her mum is very private about her

Salma values privacy when it comes to her daughter. But there are times when she lets her guard down and shares glimpses of Valentina on Instagram.

Recently, in September, she wished Valentina a happy 14th birthday on Instagram. In 2017, she shared on The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon that she once had breakfast on a hot-air balloon with Valentina in Morocco.
