• Hayek shared a carousel on Instagram with a family portrait alongside husband François‑Henri Pinault and videos from the festivities, writing, “We ate, we danced, we laughed, we loved… and we kept the party going all weekend.”
• Clips show the mother‑daughter duo dancing in silky dresses, including to Elvis Crespo’s “Suavemente,” plus a moment where Pinault carried the birthday girl as guests sang and a three‑tiered rose‑topped cake.
• Multiple outlets identified England’s Chilham Castle as the setting for the celebration based on details visible in the photos and video.
