The Frida star also included a version of the message in her father-in-law’s native French.

Francois is a billionaire French businessman whose company Kering bought Gucci and Yves Saint Laurent in the Nineties. His company also owns Boucheron, Balenciaga, and the British fashion house Alexander McQueen.

The Academy Award-nominated performer has been romantically involved with Francois’ son, Francois-Henri, ever since 2006, when they initially met.

Prior to meeting the actress, the 61-year-old businessman was married to Dorothee Lepere, with whom he shares a son and daughter named Francois and Mathilde.

The CEO of Kering later began a short-lived relationship with Linda Evangelista, and the pair welcomed a son named Augustin following the end of their romance.

Pinault eventually met Hayek, and the two became engaged in March of 2007 before welcoming their daughter Valentina, 15, that September.

The happy couple went on to tie the knot in February of 2009, and they held a larger wedding ceremony that April.

The actress recently spoke about her marriage during an interview with Glamour, during which she expressed that she had to be forced to attend her first wedding ceremony.

‘The reason why it was a courthouse wedding was because they dragged me there,’ she said.

Hayek recalled that her family members took it upon themselves to ensure that she made it to her wedding.

‘It was like an intervention…they just took me to the court. My parents, my brother, they were all ganging up on me. I had a phobia of the marriage thing,’ she stated.

However, the performer remarked that she eventually warmed up to the idea of being married.

She stated: ‘It was because I had said yes to the marriage, but I just wouldn’t actually show up on the day or do it. And then afterward I said, “Oh, it’s okay. I don’t feel any different.” And then a little bit later I said, “Okay, this is kind of exciting.”‘
