The beautiful Salma Hayek claims that she had many wrong choices until she met the right one.

“I wish I knew when I was younger that I was going to fall crazy in love with the perfect man,” the actress told Allure magazine five years ago. “I was so worried, and I dated some people I shouldn’t have dated,” the 53-year-old star said.

She admitted it wasn’t easy for her to find a perfect partner in the past.

“You get desperate, and you start seeing wonderful things in, like, the wrong guys. I also found some pretty good guys. But I wish I could say to myself, ‘Hey, chill out. You’re going to get a great husband that’s going to adore you.’ I would have saved myself a lot of personal drama”, Salma said.

Although they already had the chance to meet at various social events, Hayek and Pinault had not had the opportunity actually to talk until that evening in Venice. They had been talking all night, and soon they fell in love. As Selma pointed out, for them, it is the most important thing to have the same point of view.

The couple has a 12-year-old daughter Valentina Paloma Pinault.
