I used to wonder why someone so cute and desirable like Salma Hayek would be single. Looks like I was not the only one. French billionaire Francois-Henri Pinault was wondering the same and decided to find out. On the other hand, I simply kept wondering.

Good for me. More than two years and one child later, he finds out that she is not wife material after all and decided to end the relationship. Oh these French; they are so far ahead of us and have figured out that marriage is only for losers.

Maybe it was the long distance relationship or the fact that Salma is such an independent woman or that Salma was just desperate to become a mom before her biological clock ticked away.

The only person I feel bad for is Valentina Paloma.

Salma Hayek and François-Henri Pinault relationship

I used to wonder why a woman as beautiful, sensuous, and seductive as Salma Hayek was single for so long (she split with Josh Lucas in 2006 and prior to that dated Edward Norton). Well, while I was sleeping under a rock, she was having a full-fledged romance with François-Henri Pinault. And not just dating, they were pretty active in bed; Salma Hayek is also pregnant at the age of 40; I wonder if she was really worried that her biological clock was running out.

So who is this lucky man? well, he is not your regular Hollywood celebrity, though he still has a strong connection to the world of fashion by way of being the CEO off PPR that owns Gucci and Yves Saint Laurent. So don't expect to see Salma Hayek use Valentino in the future.

To everyone's surprise, she was able to keep her relationship quite secret because he lives in Europe. Plus, she has been pretty busy with Ugly Betty.
