Supermodel Linda Evangelista has taken Salma Hayek’s billionaire husband François-Henri Pinault to court demanding $46,000 support a month for their lovechild.
Pinault was revealed as the father of the four-year-old son recently and the supermodel now wants the astronomical sum as child support.
The 46-year-old claims she needs the money to pay for around-the-clock nannies and armed chauffeurs to take care of little Augustin as a working single mother, the New York Post reported.
Pinault, 49, is the CEO of luxury brands firm PPR, which owns Gucci, Yves Saint Laurent and Balenciaga, and others. He has a three-year-old daughter, Valentina, with Hayek, born 11 months after Aug-ustin. The executive, whose family is worth an estimated $11.5billion, is fighting the expenditures. Pinault’s lawyer, David Aaronson, questioned at a deposition last Tuesday Ms Evangelista’s need for a team of drivers who are former police detectives at a cost of $175,000 a year. —PTI
