Pinault, whose philanthropy and charity donations are remarkable, is likewise a doting father of four, including daughter Valentine with Hayek.

In 2006, Pinault initially met Hayek at a gala at the Palazzo Grassi in Venice. As reported by The Oprah Magazine, Hayek said in an interview:

"It's such a romantic, amazing story, but it is mine. I don't want to vulgarize it by making it into a story to make myself interesting."
