Salma Hayek, 54, continues to flaunt her bikini body

Salma Hayek has been sharing several bikini photos to Instagram during lockdown.

And on Tuesday the 54-year-old movie star was at it again as she posted two images while in a black string bikini as she sat in the shore of a sandy beach.

‘We need to keep our cool. Hay que mantener la calma #instamood #calm,’ wrote the mother of one in her caption for her 17M followers.

The beauty looked half her age as she had slender arms, a very small waistline and sculpted arms that made her look great in the bikini.

Her long black hair was wet and slicked back as she wore minimal makeup for the pinup shoot.

Last year she said her career is doing better than ever. 

‘It really invigorated me that they are finding me. I always found them. But they didn’t want me. And that now they’re coming to me, that’s what’s been really invigorating,’ the beauty told OK! magazine.

‘It’s difficult to make sense of it, you know? But that’s what’s been really strange. And you know what? Strange things happen to strange people.’

In the past few years the actress has starred in Drunk Parents, Like A Boss and The Roads Not Taken. Next she will be seen in The Eternals, The Hitman’s Wife’s Bodyguard and Bliss. 

Hayek rose to fame in the Mexican telenovela Teresa before moving to Los Angeles to pursue a big screen career.

However, when the Hollywood actress first started out in 1988 she had no idea how things would end up.

She believes any struggles over the years have given her the possibility to choose the right path, having dubbed her life ‘completely unimaginable’.

The cover girl explained: ‘The things that have happened in my life are completely unimaginable. Even in my greatest ideas of my most extraordinary destiny, I never imagined how I feel right now.

‘At some point in your life you just settle for doing the right thing and the best you can, instead of think about what you want and what you can didn’t get get or what you’re not getting or how someone’s getting it and you’re not getting it.

‘It gives you the possibility to take roads that you never wanted to take, and you have the adventurous spirit to go and discover instead of planning so much. You may end up on roads that are much better than in your imagination.’

The wife of billionaire François-Henri Pinault has proved with several bikini shots this year that she looks as good as ever. 

Salma and her French businessman husband have been married since 2009, after tying the knot in a lavish Paris ceremony on Valentine’s Day. Their nuptials are said to have cost an eye-watering $3.5 million.

Their big day took place in the famous Venice opera house Teatro La Fenice, and the lovers were joined by an A-List group of well wishers, including Penelope Cruz, Woody Harrelson and Bono.  

Last year, it was reported that François-Henri is worth an estimated $33.2billion. (He is the chairman and CEO of Kering since 2005, and president of Groupe Artémis since 2003.)

The Oscar-nominated actress remains tight-lipped about their relationship, but last year she did address trolls who apparently criticized the union.

‘A lot of people are very shocked that I married who I married,’ she said in an interview with Town & Country. 

‘And some people are even intimidated now by me. But it’s another way of showing racism. They can’t believe this Mexican ended up in the life that she has, and they’re uncomfortable around me.’

Salma added: ‘[Pinault] is the best husband in the world. I get to be who I am with him, and I don’t feel that somebody tries to limit me.’
