The mega star says marriage and family have been her biggest accomplishments
Salma Hayek, who shares a daughter with François-Henri Pinault, says that family is her biggest blessing and is far more important than success.
“It’s not success in this or in that, or money or things, or beauty. What if you’re really beautiful and you’re not loved? That’s not gonna make you happy. But what makes you happy is, for me, my family. They are the biggest blessing I have,” she told Entertainment Tonight.
The actress, along with daughter Valentina, is also stepmother to her partner’s children, Mathilde, Augustin and François. She did, however, admit to having no desires in having additional children.
“I’m very blessed because I have three stepchildren, so I have a family of four kids. Four is enough.”
The 49-year-old beauty also believes that marriage has been her biggest accomplishment to date.
“A good marriage, full of love, is my biggest accomplishment. Home is where my husband is. He is home. Everything outside of the family nucleus is an adventure that you’re living together [as a couple].”
The From Dusk Till Dawn star also shared some opinions on keeping children more productive, adding: “You have to drag children into participating in life. It takes a lot of work and mummies are very tired because most of us work and life is exhausting, especially if you are an older mum like me, but you have to make the effort.”
She continued: “Now it’s so easy to just entertain them [with a screen], and you don’t have to go through the complaining for an hour about dragging them places. Drag them, and make them a part of your life. It’s about the human connection, and the things they can learn from participating in life. Otherwise, isolation starts to happen.”
