Report: Linda Evangelista's Son Fathered by Salma Hayek's Husband

It looks like Salma Hayek's husband has some explaining to do. According to new reports, the actress' husband, Francois-Henri Pinault, is the father of supermodel Linda Evangelista's 4-year-old son.

According to the New York Post, news that the French billionaire fathered the model's child was confirmed yesterday when Evangelista went to Family Court to figure out a child support agreement for her son, Augustin 'Augie' James.

To make matters more complicated, Pinualt, who is the CEO of the $28 billion fashion group that owns Gucci, Bottega Veneta and Yves St. Laurent, also has a 3-year-old daughter, Valencia, with Hayek.

So was the billionaire two-timing his then-girlfriend, now-wife Salma Hayek? Not quite. Though Pinault and Hayek started dating in 2006, it wasn't smooth sailing all the way to their 2009 wedding.

Evangelista and Pinault reportedly conceived their child in early 2006, when the billionaire and Hayek were reportedly on a break.

Evangelista's son was born in October 2006, and she refused to name the father at the time. Meanwhile, Hayek's daughter was born in September 2007.

And it looks like the daddy drama isn't over just yet. An agreement couldn't be reached in this week's hearing, so Evangelista and Pinault are most likely headed for a fall support trial.

Evangelista can now say, "That's mah' baby's daddy". Sounds alittle different when daddy is a billionaire.

Old guys with billions are very attractive to some women! Can you say "gold diggers"?
To me a young buff man is much sexier than an old guy with everything sagging!!!That gives me the creeps!

I bet his son is a lot better looking than that ugly little girl Salma had. Valentina looks like a 40 year old MESSYCAN woman who sells pencils from a cup in downtown Juarez, she is one ugly little girl.

I totally agree! She's actually scary looking for such a little girl. At least she will always be rich.

Wow. That's an innocent three-year-old child you're talking about in such racist and cruel terms. Couldn't you just say "I think she's not a pretty child" and leave it at that? What a disgusting, sad human being you must be.

By Evie

You are very foolish in making fun of a child. What is wrong with you? Children are innocent when born to the crazy lives of their adult parents. Don't make fun of this baby - she has nothing to do with this mess. In addition, your prejudicial words say a lot about you - you are ignorant, spiteful, a bigot and ugly. Ugly in soul and perhaps physically, too.

Agree with Evie, knock it off.

Cheating on Selma Hayek with a supermodel; Charlie Sheen doesn't know what "winning" is!

How anyone could even consider cheating on someone as hot as Salma Hayek is beyond me. I think she is one of the most attractive women on the planet.

This man is spreding his millions around. C'est la vie
