“I am ashamed to admit how many times he had to ask me,” she said in a 2021 interview with the Times of India, joking she had to be “dragged” down the aisle at their courthouse wedding.

She added: “I was nervous. … I had said yes to the marriage, but I just wouldn’t actually show up on the day or do it.”
The couple share a daughter Valentina, now 16. French-born Pinault, who is the brand Kering’s CEO, which manages the likes of Gucci, Saint Laurent, Bottega Veneta and Balenciaga, spends his $7 billion fortune on stunning mansions and luxury trips around the world with his famous wife and family.
