“The summer is coming to an end, and the best moment of it all was when my husband surprised me with a vow renewal,” Salma wrote in her Instagram caption. “It wasn’t what I’d have picked to wear to my wedding—I thought I was going to the spa! But hey, that’s love for you.” She added a playful hashtag: #luckyinlove. And if you’re wondering, the sentiment was mutual in both English and Spanish. Salma captioned the post in both languages, ensuring her global fanbase could feel the love.

Salma’s Family Joins the Celebration

Salma and Francois’s daughter, Valentina Paloma Pinault, was there to witness the magic. The 10-year-old looked absolutely thrilled, even catching her mom’s bouquet in one of the cutest moments captured from the event. As Salma prepares to celebrate her 52nd birthday next month, you can bet that Francois, who’s 56, will pull out all the stops to make her feel extra special again. This man clearly knows how to keep the romance alive, and Salma couldn’t be happier about it.

Salma has always been open about her feelings for Francois, telling Entertainment Tonight that she feels her sexiest when she’s with him. “Even after all these years, my husband is really good at making me feel like I’ve still got it,” she said with a smile. “But honestly, feeling sexy isn’t the most important thing in my life. Love and family? That’s what truly matters.”

Family: The Biggest Blessing of All

For Salma, family is everything. In a candid interview, the star of 11th Hour revealed that her family is her greatest blessing. “It’s not about success or money or beauty. What’s the point of being beautiful if you’re not loved? That doesn’t bring happiness. For me, happiness comes from my family,” she shared. And when it comes to choosing the right partner, Salma knows she hit the jackpot. “I married the right guy,” she told reporters at a 2017 Harper’s Bazaar event. “That’s probably the most important thing I’ve ever done.”
