The summer is coming to an end and my best moment was when my husband surprised me with a vow renewal – it was not what I would have chosen to wear to my wedding but I was told I was going to the spa! #luckyinlove #wedding El mejor momento de este verano fue cuando mi marido me organizó una ceremonia sorpresa para renovar nuestros votos matrimoniales. Yo hubiera escogido otro vestido pero me dijeron que íbamos al spa #sorpresa

Do you think you’re built to be a trophy wife? I go back and forth on whether I could handle it. I think I would enjoy the stability of “being taken care of” by an older man who has been around the block. But I also know that I prize my independence and doing whatever the hell I want all the time. Salma Hayek is not like that though – she ended up with a billionaire and never looked back. She got together with Francois-Henri Pinault circa 2006-07. They welcomed their daughter Valentina together, and Francois and Salma were married in 2009. They’ve been pretty happy ever since, because sh-t, she married a billionaire. They have homes all over the world, they travel all the time, and they’re living the good life. Well, nine years after their wedding, Francois “surprised” Salma with a vow renewal. Hm…

Salma Hayek is one lucky woman. She revealed the sweet and romantic surprise her husband organized for her while on vacation by the beach. In a series of photos shared on Instagram, the producer shared the adorable photos of herself and husband, Francois-Henri Pinault, renewing their vows in an intimate ceremony, with their daughter Valentina Paloma Pinault as a witness. “The summer is coming to an end and my best moment was when my husband surprised me with a vow renewal,” the 51-year-old gushed.

Clad in a red casual dress, the actress joked, “it was not what I would have chosen to wear to my wedding but I was told I was going to the spa!” And while the Mexico native would’ve liked a mariachi band to perform, her husband got the next best thing. “There were no mariachi band on the island but my husband found this one man band,” she shared.

A surprise vow renewal after nine years of marriage… sketchy or fine? Romantic or suspicious? Or all of the above? Salma always talks up Francois as a total romantic who adores her and respects her and whatever. But I do wonder. Nothing says “guilty conscience” like a surprising romantic gesture, at least to me. That’s probably why I’m not built to be a Trophy Wife. I would be side-eyeing Francois and yelling “WHAT DID YOU DO?”
