“I will sometimes say, ‘I am 50 years old! Why do I have to look good? I already got my guy!'” says Hayek to The Edit. The Mexican actress married her husband, François-Henri Pinault in 2009 and has a 9-year-old daughter with him.
“The worst part of the aging process has been my eyes. Not the wrinkles — the eyes themselves,” she reveals. “I’m such a visual person and [now] I cannot read without depending on glasses … It has been really, really sad. The eyes, for me, that’s worse than the menopause.”
