Chris Hemsworth and Elsa Pataky got married back in the days when almost no one knew about them. And hand in hand went to their most popular roles. She - to "Fast and Furious", he - to "Avengers".
How it all began?
It all started in early 2010. Agent William Ward invited both actors to the same party. Elsa was filming in Spain then, and Chris already enjoyed success in Australia. But on a global scale, they were both still newcomers.
The party had a simple task - to “go out to people” and make useful acquaintances. Well, got yourself! Chris later said that there was no flash at first sight. But he immediately liked the bright, cheerful and sociable Elsa. Pataki admitted that she was captivated by the actor's stunning voice.

Elsa was born in Madrid, the son of a Spanish biochemist and a Romanian-Hungarian publicist. She has a half-brother, Christian, a film director. The girl studied journalism and acting at St. Paul's University. In addition to Spanish and English, she speaks Italian, French and Portuguese.
From 2006 to 2009, Elsa met with Adrien Brody. They starred together in the Italian thriller Jallo. He even donated a 19th century estate to her in New York.
Her first role was in the TV series The Queen of Swords. Since then, she has played in the films "Nowhere Worse", "Werewolf Hunt", "Snake Flight", "I Want to Hollywood", and a dozen other roles.

Life after the wedding
Elsa and Chris got married on December 26, 2010, after 10 months of relationship. The wedding was unexpected for everyone, including their mutual agent. The couple got married during the Christmas holidays in Indonesia, and it was a spontaneous decision. By coincidence, their relatives were just resting with them - how can you not believe in the signs?
Since then, the family has three children - 8-year-old daughter India Rose and 6-year-old twin sons Sasha and Tristan. According to Hemsworth, looking at his wife as a mother, he only fell in love with her even more.
To hide from the persistent attention of journalists, the family moved to Byron Bay. It is a small resort town in Australia that boasts amazing beaches and nature. There the actors bought a house for themselves.
The whole family spends a lot of time on the beach and surfing, which Chris adores. Sport is an important part of their life. The house even has a separate gym, which helped out a lot during the quarantine. True, Hemsworth argues that this is not at all necessary - if you wish, you can do it without equipment. On Ellen DeGeneres' online show, he even showed different exercises with bottles, cans, and a laundry basket.
