Gossip: Linda Evangelista, Selma Hayek
The former supermodel filed a court action seeking child support from French billionaire François-Henri Pinault, who is Selma Hayek’s husband.
Court papers have revealed that the father of former supermodel Linda Evangelista’s 4-year-old son is Selma Hayek’s husband, said the New York Post. Evangelista, 46, had previously been extremely secretive about her son’s paternity, but filed a court action last week seeking child support from French billionaire François-Henri Pinault, who wed Hayek in 2009. Pinault, 49, has a 3-year-old daughter with Hayek. Evangelista said she and Pinault conceived their son while Pinault was briefly separated from Hayek in 2006.
