Salma Hayek gushes over 'beautiful photos' from first magazine cover with daughter Valentina
Salma Hayek put a high-fashion spin on Take Your Child to Work Day, posing with her daughter Valentina Pinault on the cover of a magazine for the first time.
Hayek, 55, and Pinault, 14, appear on the May cover of Vogue México, which features a simple close-up shot of the mother-daughter duo staring confidently into the camera. They also posed for a series of stunning editorial shots, many of them in black and white.
Hayek shared some of the photos from the shoot on Instagram Wednesday.
“What a great early Mother’s Day present,” Hayek captioned the post. “Loving these beautiful photos by (Nico Bustos) and this special moment with my Valentina.”
Hayek’s peers flooded the comments section with messages of support.
Zoe Saldana and Julianne Moore posted a series of hands-raised emojis, while fashion icon Linda Evangelista included a bundle of red and pink hearts in her comment.
“My baby girl!!!,” Blake Lively wrote.
“Beautiful mother and daughter,” Anthony Hopkins commented.
“Valentina!!!!!!,” wrote Edward Enninful, editor-in-chief of British Vogue.
This isn’t the first time Hayek and Pinault have collaborated in fashion. In October 2021, Hayek brought her daughter to the world premiere of her Marvel film "Eternals," where the two stunned in elegant black attire.

Vogue México also shared an additional pair of photos from the cover spread, including a sweet shot of Hayek leaning her head on Pinault’s shoulder. The other photo shows the Oscar-nominated actress and her daughter posing in a lush outdoor space.
“I became a mother very late,” Hayek told the outlet in Spanish. “I did it since I found the love of my life, who had a stable career, but I already had so much desire to have (a) daughter that nothing else mattered to me.”
Pinault also opened up about the role social media plays in her life, as well as the socially conscious approach her generation has toward online visibility.
“I think how many likes you have doesn’t matter much to my generation or my friends, but (to) have something to say,” Pinault said in Spanish. “We do not put everything of our lives (online); in my case, I want to put things on my (social) media about who I want to be, but the important (things are) also out there. What we are talking about today are problems that everyone seeks to address in a different way: It can be the environment, the importance of sexuality, race or beauty standards.”
