Salma Hayek and Linda Evangelista Had a Rare Red Carpet Co-Parenting Moment
We love when the red carpet turns into a family reunion.
Supermodel Linda Evangelista and her son, Augustin Evangelista, had a sweet mommy-and-me moment at the WSJ. Magazine Innovator Awards last night, but there was an even cuter moment when Salma Hayek joined the duo. Of course, Hayek is Augustin's step-mother and the trio proved that co-parenting can be stylish and supportive as they posed on the red carpet together.
Evangelista wore a crisp white suit with matching wide-leg pants paired with a black turtleneck top. Augustin coordinated with his mom in an all-black suit with a slimmer silhouette but the same tailored vibe. Hayek wore a custom red Balenciaga creation with a strapless neckline and sleek, column skirt. The event marked the first red carpet appearance from Evangelista and her son since the Kering Caring For Women Dinner earlier this year.
In addition to Augustin, Hayek is stepmom to François Henri Pinault's other children, Mathilde and François, who are from his first marriage to Dorothée Lepère. In the past, Evangelista has been open about the close-knit relationship the Evangelista-Hayek-Pinault family share.
Speaking to Vogue, she recounted a situation where she was ill over the Thanksgiving holiday and Hayek was ready to help.
“I was sick,” Evangelista said. “And Salma got on the plane with her daughter, came here, and made Thanksgiving dinner. Spent the day in the kitchen and cooked it herself. No help. The kids helped her at the end. She made a feast—a beautiful, beautiful meal. I had told her that I wasn’t going to have Thanksgiving, I wasn’t feeling well. And she said, ‘Oh yes you are. I am coming.‘ And poof, she was here.”
