Salma Hayek already loves being an abuela — and has given herself and the newborn a sweet nickname. The actor became a grandma after stepson François Pinault Jr. and his wife, Lara Cosima Henckel von Donnersmarck, welcomed their first child together. Hayek and husband François-Henri Pin ault share 18-year-old daughter Valentina. Pinault is also father to Pinault Jr., 28, Mathilde Pinault, 25, and Augustin James Evangelista, 19, from previous relationships. Sharing a first glimpse of Pinault Jr.’s newborn on her Instagram, Hayek posted a video of her cradling the baby while she spoke Spanish to him. The “Grown Ups” star shared that the little one is named after his father and grandfather — but has another name in mind for the baby. “We are blessed to welcome the fourth living generation of Francois’,” she wrote. “Although I will call him Panchito. He seems to love it, and I cannot love him more.” In Mexico, Panchito or Pancho is a common nickname for people named Francisco. The French equivalent of Francisco is François. In Hayek’s video she asks little “Panchito” in Spanish, “What are you dreaming about?” The baby coos and giggles in his sleep as she continues calling him by the moniker and speaking to him in Spanish. “Nos da mucha risa.” When she calls him “chiquitito hermoso,” he smiles and continues to laugh in his sleep. She also calls herself “abue,” short for abuela or grandma in Spanish. On Aug. 12, von Donnersmarck shared a slideshow filled with photos of her and her bundle of joy. It also included snaps of baby François with his father and one with Hayek holding him. “my husband (the world’s coolest françois) and our son (the world’s cutest françois)… our first month as parents,” the new mom captioned her post, adding a hatching chick emoji. Hayek has supported her stepchildren’s accomplishments over the years. When Augustin Evangelista graduated high school last year, she shared photos from the celebration and wrote how proud she was of him. She also congratulated his mom, model Linda Evangelista, for the parenting milestone. Linda Evangelista welcomed her son in 2006 after a brief romance with Pinault. In the comments section of her own post celebrating her son’s graduation, the supermodel wrote to Hayek, “Love you and all your support.” In a 2017 Red magazine interview, Hayek shared how she “always wanted to have a lot of children” and how becoming a stepmother was a “blessing.” “And I was not able to. My body, as a miracle, had one,” she said. “The huge blessing I’ve had is that my husband has three other children. So I have four. And they are all so different.” This story first appeared on TODAY.com.
