Salma sported a strapless crochet dress for the outing while her French husband who went for a casual look in a white T shirt and patchwork jeans with Gucci sneakers.

Valentina was born in 2007 shortly after she met Francois-Henri. She is their only child together.

Lepère and the businessman tied the knot in 1996 but the relationship ended in 2004. Dorothée currently owns a freelancing company, Madame Dorothée, in France.

Though their eldest child, François, stays out of the limelight, his younger sister has already modeled for prestigious brands and has a large following on social media.

Mathilde has previously explained that she does not want to pursue career in modeling, but has already worked for some brands such as Olgana and Miasuki. 

François-Henri is the son of Pinault SA founder, François Pinault, 86. Following its launch in the 1960s, the company was then known as Printemps-Redoute, then PPR, before the name finally changed to Kering in 2013.

The successful French businessman handed over management of his companies to his son in May 2003, and his son is now worth an estimated $33.5 billion, thanks to the success of the family’s many companies.

Francois-Henri, 61, has been the chairman and CEO of Kering since 2005, and president of Groupe Artémis since 2003. Under his leadership, the retail conglomerate PPR was transformed into the luxury fashion group, Kering.

He was named Harvard Business Review’s third best-performing CEO in the world in 2019. 

Despite the vast amount of wealth associated with her family, Salma recently revealed that she keeps her kids ‘humble’ at Christmas by giving them modest presents.

She told Page Six: ‘My kids are humble. I don’t know how I did it, but I think that what was great is that they have a big spectrum of things.

‘So for Christmas, I like them to open millions of presents, but some of them are very small and meaningful, some of them are very silly and playful, and then they get one or two really nice ones.’

Valentina’s father Francois-Henri has three older children from previous relationships before he met her mother, Salma.

He shares daughter Mathilde, 22, and son François, 25, with French interior designer Dorothée Lepère.

Francois-Henri met Salma in the Spring of 2006 while attending a gala at the Palazzo Grassi in Venice.

The Frida star announced that she was engaged to the French businessman in March 2007 and also confirmed that she was pregnant. 

She then gave birth to their daughter, Valentina Paloma, in September 2007.

Salma and François-Henri went on to tie the knot in a low-key civil ceremony on February 14, 2009 with only family in attendance, before rolling out the lavish celebrations two months later for an A-list wedding bash. 

François-Henri surprised Salma with a vow renewal disguised as a spa day on the tropical island of Bora Bora in 2018, with their daughters both seen in pictures from the occasion.

Valentina stepped out into the spotlight in style after she scored her first-ever Vogue Mexico cover at the tender age of 14.

In an interview conducted in Spanish, it was revealed how Valentina often liked to take her mother’s clothes and her hopes to work in Hollywood.  

Though the pair were dressed to the nines in designer clothes for the photoshoot, Valentina insisted she often wears sweats. 

‘We fight over clothes because she takes everything from my closet,’ Salma teased.

‘Since she was little she never let me choose her clothes, and I always liked that,’ Salma added. ‘[And] she’s very good with makeup. I’m good at makeup, but now she teaches me.’

The pair have more in common than just clothes: They also both speak Spanish and like to do so to speak privately in public.

Valentina stressed the importance of helping others, which she does through volunteering at a soup kitchen.

‘I learned that each person who is homeless has a different story,’ she said. ‘Everyone assumes they are homeless because of drugs or because they don’t work.

‘What’s more, when you see someone sleeping on the street they have the same reaction: you’re sorry, but you don’t want to get close. I think it’s important to get closer and listen rather than ignore them and believe that it’s not your problem or our problem.’

Valentina also revealed her dreams of becoming an actress and a director in the future. As well as highlighting her love for photography.

Though Salma is still cautious about sharing too much of Valentina’s childhood on social media, she has allowed her daughter to be pictured by the paparazzi.

The youngster is no stranger to being photographed and is often seen making her way through airports with her family, or dining out at popular restaurants across the globe.  

In recent years, Valentina has since gone on to become a regular red carpet companion for her superstar mom.

In November 2021, she was on hand to help her mother celebrate the moment when she received a coveted star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame. 

Indeed, the teen is her mom’s biggest cheerleader and often attends glamorous premieres for films such as Marvel’s Eternals and Puss in Boots: The Last Wish.

Around 2019, she began to make regular appearances with her mother at fashion week shows.

She’s attended catwalk shows for luxury brands such as Gucci, Bottega Venetta and many more.
