"Happy birthday Augie, you are such a blessing in our lives, that your fiery character is making a big difference this year," the Desperado star wrote. In addition to this message, a photo and video accompany the post. It shows François-Henri Pinault and his son Augustin together, as well as a video in which the latter is seen performing a backflip at sea from a boat.
Married since 2009, François-Henri Pinault and Salma Hayek have a daughter, Valentina Paloma, born in 2007. Also the father of François, 26, and Mathilde, 22, from a previous union with French woman Dorothée Lepère, the CEO of the luxury group Kering only revealed in 2011 that he had a son with supermodel Linda Evangelista. He declared in the pages of Elle: "I recognized him as early as 2007. Augustin was born on October 11, 2006, when his parents had been separated for more than eight months, and, at every possible opportunity, I involve him in my family life in the United States or France, especially with his sister Valentina, born in September 2007; He's totally integrated into my family."
Since then, the young man has lived between France, with his father, and the United States with his mother. While he recently accompanied Linda Evangelista to a recent Kering gala, he is now rumored to have ambitions as a model, as he looks more and more like the latter. A path all mapped out, on or around the podiums.
