Linda Evangelista reunites with ex Francois-Henri Pinault and his wife Salma Hayek as they celebrate son Augustin, 18, graduating high school
Linda Evangelista reunited with ex Francois-Henri Pinault and his wife Salma Hayek as they came together to celebrate her son Augustin graduating high school.
The supermodel, 60, looked every inch the proud mother as she posed with her lookalike son, 18, on his big day.
Taking to Instagram on Monday, she uploaded a slew of snaps which showed Augustin proudly posing with his diploma before celebrating with a personalised cake and enjoying a cigar with his billionaire father.
In one sweet snap, the graduate hugged his stepmother Salma, 58, and mum Linda as they posed alongside his father Francois, 63.
Linda captioned the snaps: 'Then this happened. ♥️✨I'm one proud momma. Blessed blessed blessed…'

Linda and Francois-Henri briefly dated from September 2005 until January 2006.
The Kering CEO started dating From Dusk Till Dawn star Salma in April that year, when Linda was pregnant with Augustin.
In 2007, Linda and Francois-Henri announced their engagement and welcomed their daughter Valentina in September.
When Augustin was first born, Linda initially kept his paternity a secret.
Years later she publicly revealed the father was French billionaire François-Henri, in a child support battle that was ultimately settled out of court in 2012.
Linda previously gave an insight into her co-parenting relationship with Salma in an interview with Vogue.
She explained that she spends time with Salma and her ex during the holiday season. However, one Thanksgiving, she was ill and not able to join the festivities.
'I was sick at Thanksgiving. And Salma got on the plane with her daughter, came here, and made Thanksgiving dinner,' she explained.
Linda then humorously revealed she had given Hayek an 'eclectic wish list' for what she wanted to eat.
'I wanted her Mexican chicken with truffled potatoes. And she spent the day in the kitchen and cooked it herself. No help.'
'The kids helped her at the end. She made a feast - a beautiful, beautiful meal. I had told her that I wasn't going to have Thanksgiving; I wasn't feeling well. And she said, "Oh yes you are: I am coming." And poof, she was here.'
Linda also opened up about her son and wanting to give him a 'normal upbringing' - despite her celebrity status.
She revealed both she and Augustin sit in the nosebleed seats at events after offers for front row seats at venues at Madison Square Garden dwindled down.
'Now we buy our tickets and we sit with the fans in nosebleed. We're fine with that. I wanted to have a very normal upbringing for my child.'

Miley Cyrus flashes sideboob in tiny halter top as she steps out in NYC with much-younger boyfriend
Miley Cyrus narrowly avoided a major wardrobe malfunction as she left her New York City hotel with her rocker boyfriend Maxx Morando on Wednesday. The three-time Grammy Winner, 32, flashes plenty of sideboob while wearing a glitzy sequin halter top that exposed her toned back. She styled the risky top with belted cutoff denim shorts, fishnet stockings and sexy color-blocked Christian Louboutin boots. Miley — who recently released a new album — rocked designer sunglasses as she eagerly signed autographs and snapped selfies with fans. The tattooed star was led to a nearby SUV by her security team as well as boyfriend Maxx, who she's been dating since late 2021. The drummer, 24, looked stoic in a navy blue Gucci polo shirt, baggy black pants and white lace-up sneakers. Miley appeared to be heading to Wednesday night's taping of The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon, where she'll promote her new album Something Beautiful. Something Beautiful, Miley's ninth studio album, was released on May 30 and has been largely promoted as the singer's 'psychedelic' music era. The album has received mixed reviews from critics, with Rolling Stone awarding it four out of five stars. Meanwhile, Pitchfork offered harsh words as they branded Something Beautiful as 'directionless and thematically vague.' Along with 13 brand new tracks, Miley is also releasing a corresponding film that will play in theaters for one night only in the United States on Thursday, June 12. Miley has been out in full force to promote Something Beautiful, including a recent appearance on Jimmy Kimmel Live! and exclusive album listening parties across the United States and Paris, France. This press tour has also seen Miley partake in some of her most personal interviews to date. She recently appeared on the New York Times podcast The Interview, where she opened up about her reconciliation with dad Billy Ray Cyrus and his shock new romance with Elizabeth Hurley. As for her glam, Miley had a noticeable sun-kissed glow to her complexion and her shiny, brunette hair was worn in her natural waves She eagerly signed autographs and snapped selfies with fans She said that seeing her dad — who divorced Miley's mom Tish Cyrus in 2022 — move on has allowed her to love both her parents 'as individuals' and that seeing them happy has helped her finally 'grow up.' 'As I've gotten older, I respect my parents as individuals instead of as parents because, you know, my mom really loved my dad for her whole life,' said the pop icon. She added, 'I took on some of my mom's hurt as my own, because it hurt her more than it hurt me as an adult. So I owned a lot of her pain as mine.' 'But now that my mom is so in love with my stepdad, Dom, who I completely adore, and now that I see my dad finding happiness outside of that too, I can love them both as individuals instead of as a kind of parental pairing. I'm being an adult about it.' Miley's mom Tish, 58, split from her father in 2022 after 28 years of marriage, and their divorce was finalized in 2023. She married Australian actor and Prison Break star Dominic Purcell in August the same year. 'At first, it's hard,' Miley noted of her dad's new romance, 'because the little kid in you reacts before the adult in you can go, yes, that's your dad — but that's just another person that deserves to be in his bliss and to be happy. So my adult self has caught up. My child self has caught up.' Billy Ray, 63, debuted his romance with Elizabeth, 59, in April. It came after the end of his short-lived marriage to 36-year-old singer Firerose, which was settled in August 2024. Reflecting on the relentless scrutiny surrounding her famous family and why today's media cycle makes those moments easier to weather - Miley continued: 'The thing I like about the new way that the world works is that everything is so fast, it's forgotten really quickly. In the Nineties when something happened... it would just last for a year. Now it's just gone. 'Social media moves so fast. It just eats everything. Something may seem really important for a couple hours but then there's a meme that goes viral - somebody scats at Walmart or something - and that becomes the next thing.' Also during her sit-down for The Interview, Miley opened up about why she hasn't had children. She revealed she isn't 'passionate' about motherhood as she got candid about being child-free at 32. Miley used a conversation about celebrity make-up brands to explain her position on having children. 'My stepdad asked me the other day, 'Why are you the only one without a makeup line?'' she said. 'I was like, 'Cause that's not my passion.' He goes, 'That's the right answer.' And it made so much sense. It's like, 'I don't have a makeup line because I'm not a makeup artist.'' She continued: 'I feel that way about motherhood. It's just never been something that I've been overly passionate about.' 'It's a lot of responsibility and devotion and energy, and if you're not passionate about that, I don't know how you do sleepless nights and 18 years of what my mum dealt with,' Miley added. 'And when I say 18 years, I mean 33, 'cause I'm still a baby. So I've never felt the burn, you know? And I think for me, the burn is everything.'
