Linda Evangelista asks $46,000 for child support from Hayek’s hubby

It has been learnt from the sources that the sexy siren supermodel Linda Evangelista has asked the bigger chunk $46,000 (£28,275) per month from the hubby of the sex bombshell Salma Hayek, François-Henri Pinault who is the father of Linda’s 4 years old son. Linda asks this amount for the child’s support.

Reportedly both Salma and Pinault had tied the knot in February 2009. He has a son aged 4 years from Linda Evangelista. The son’s name is Augustin James. Reports say that François-Henri Pinault and Salma Hayek have temporarily broken up.

As per the famous newspaper of the USA, the lawyer of Linda William Beslow has asked for this higher chunk of the amount from Pinault because he has been paying zero and just sitting back and enjoying life.

It is being said that the amount asked would go for the payment of the several round-the-clock nannies appointed for the child, drivers and for the security of Linda and her kid.

On the side of Pinault, his lawyer David Aronson has kicked off the monthly amount’s request, saying, “She testified that she wants to have a 24-hour nanny because she does not want to be alone with the child… Miss Evangelista, you should understand, has a worth of more than $8 million (£4.9 million), and she earned, last year, $1.8 million (£1.1 million).”

The initial hearing for the case happened in Manhattan, New York where the judge seemed sympathetic to Linda’s needs but mentioned that $46,000 seemed higher amount.

Both Evangelista and Pinault are scheduled to appear in court again next month to zero in the approved amount.
