Salma Hayek is a grandmother!

The actress, 59, took to Instagram Monday, Aug. 17, to announce that her stepson, François Pinault Jr., welcomed his first baby with wife Lara Cosima Henckel von Donnersmarck.

The post featured a sweet video of Hayek, who is from Mexico, cradling the baby boy and speaking to him in Spanish as he giggled. Hayek also revealed that his name is François, like his father and grandfather.

“We are blessed to welcome the fourth living generation of Francois’. Although I will call him Panchito. He seems to love it, and I cannot love him more,” the caption read.

Henckel von Donnersmarck shared a series of photos of the newborn in an Instagram post on Aug. 12, including several with his dad and another cute snapshot with Hayek.

“my husband (the world’s coolest françois) and our son( the world’s cutest françois),” Henckel von Donnersmarck wrote, going on to hint at when François was born: “… our first month as parents.”

Salma Hayak became a stepmom in 2009

Hayek is a stepmom to husband François-Henri Pinault’s three children from previous relationships: Mathilde, 25, François, 38, and Augustin, 19. Pinault shares Augustin with Linda Evangelista, who gave birth to their son in 2006, the same year the “Grown Ups” star and Pinault met.

Pinault’s identity as Augustin’s father, however, was not publicly known until the model filed a child support lawsuit five years later. The highly publicized case was settled in 2012, according to Reuters.

Hayek and Pinault, who tied the knot in 2009, also share 18-year-old daughter Valentina.

Hayek has opened up about her love of kids and her family’s dynamic in the past. During a 2017 interview with Red magazine, she said, “I always wanted to have a lot of children, and I was not able to. My body, as a miracle, had one.”

“The huge blessing I’ve had is that my husband has three other children. So I have four. And they are all so different,” she continued.
