Salma Hayek, 57, shows off her toned figure in a skimpy black bikini as she praises daughter Valentina, 16, for taking stunning beachside photo

Salma Hayek showcased her incredibly fit physique while rocking a black bikini in a stunning photo taken by her 16-year-old daughter Valentina Pinault. 

In the image, shared to her Instagram on Saturday morning, the 57-year-old actress looked at peace as she stood in the middle of the ocean during golden hour.

'It always helps to have a photographer in the family,' the performer captioned the image as she informed her 28.4 million Instagram followers that her teen was responsible for capturing the moment. 

The star, who was born in Coatzacoalcos, Mexico, wore her long brunette locks in a wavy ponytail and could be seen looking at the shore, with her back to the sea.

In addition to being a skilled photographer, Valentina previously revealed her dreams of becoming an actress and a director while appearing on Vogue Mexico's May 2022 issue with her mom. 

During the interview, Salma opened up about coming to motherhood later in life while Valentina stressed the importance of helping others.

Although the pair have a close relationship, the Oscar nominee admitted: 'We fight over clothes because she takes everything from my closet.' 

'Since she was little she never let me choose her clothes, and I always liked that,' Salma added. '[And] she's very good with makeup. I'm good at makeup, but now she teaches me.' 

Additionally, the mother daughter duo like to talk to each other in Spanish to speak privately in public. 

'When we are with more people I like it because it is like a secret because nobody speaks Spanish, because with my dad I speak French,' Valentina said. 

In March, she accompanied Salma to both the 95th Annual Academy Awards and the Vanity Fair Oscars afterparty.

Salma and François-Henri have been in a relationship since 2006 and tied the knot in Paris in 2009.

He is the son of billionaire French businessman Francois Pinault, whose company Kering bought Gucci and Yves Saint Laurent in the 90s.

His company also owns Boucheron, Balenciaga, and the British fashion house Alexander McQueen.

François-Henri took over from his father as CEO of Kering in 2005 and also owns Stade Rennais FC, a French soccer team.

Prior to meeting the actress, François-Henri was married to Dorothee Lepere, with whom he shares a son and daughter named Francois and Mathilde.

The CEO of Kering later began a short-lived relationship with supermodel Linda Evangelista, and the pair welcomed a son named Augustin following the end of their romance.

Salma previously spoke about her marriage during an interview with Glamour, during which she expressed that she had to be forced to attend her first wedding ceremony.

'The reason why it was a courthouse wedding was because they dragged me there,' she said.

The actress recalled that her family members took it upon themselves to ensure that she made it to her wedding.

'It was like an intervention…they just took me to the court. My parents, my brother, they were all ganging up on me. I had a phobia of the marriage thing,' she stated.

'It was because I had said yes to the marriage, but I just wouldn't actually show up on the day or do it. And then afterward I said, 'Oh, it's okay. I don't feel any different.' And then a little bit later I said, 'Okay, this is kind of exciting.''
