Salma Hayek Calls Off Engagement with Billionaire!

Salma Hayek and Francois-Henri Pinault

Salma Hayek's rep has confirmed that she has called of her engagement with French billionaire and father of her child Francois-Henri Pinault (shown above). Us Magazine reports:

Salma Hayek and French billionaire Francois-Henri Pinault — the father of her daughter Valentina — have called off their engagement.

"We are sad to announce the engagement of Salma Hayek and Francois-Henri Pinault has been canceled," Hayek's rep said in a statement to USA Today. "There will be no further comment."

Well that's kind of random and abrupt. Salma had always said that she never felt the "need" to get married, but it looked like she at the very least "wanted" to get married at some point. Now poor Francois-Henri Pinault will be showing up to his own wedding alone! Well, okay, maybe I'm just saying that for effect. I'm assuming he probably won't show up at all. But you get the idea! It's more poetic this way!
