Chris Hemsworth Shares Family Photo With “Gorgeous” Wife Elsa Pataky and Their 3 Kids

Chris Hemsworth is feeling the love, hold the thunder. 

The Thor star recently shared a sweet birthday tribute to his wife of 14 years Elsa Pataky, which also included a glimpse into their family life with kids India, 12, and twins Sasha and Tristan, 10. 

Chris, 40, captioned the post, alongside photos of Elsa, newly 48, and their kids, “Happy birthday to this gorgeous lady.” 

In the family photo, Elsa poses with a dessert—complete with a birthday candle—at a restaurant. India, Sasha, and Tristan also surround the table smiling as Chris snaps the family selfie moment. Other pictures in Chris’ sweet post include the couple in full costume for Mad Max: Furiosa and Thor: Love and Thunder. There is also a solo shot of Elsa posing among rocks and seashells with a black and white filter. 

And the adorable post isn’t the only instance the family of five spend time together, of course. In fact, Elsa has previously shared that she and Chris made it their priority to get their kids into outdoor activities they could do as a family from an early age.

“We’ve got the kids into surfing,” Elsa shared to body+soul magazine in 2020. “Any hobbies to get them outside, and not on social media and computers. My daughter has been horse riding with me since she was two-and-a-half.”

Elsa and Chris have also emphasized the importance of raising their kids out of the spotlight—they primarily reside in Australia to maintain privacy—but they have stepped out for more public family moments recently, too. 

Upon receiving his star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame in May, Chris and Elsa stepped out at the ceremony alongside all three of their children to commemorate the occasion in Hollywood.

“Thank you to the @hollywoodchamberofcommerce and the @hwdwalkoffame selection committee for this honour,” Chris wrote in a post at the time. “To all the incredible people that have helped, encouraged and supported me over the years on this crazy adventure!”
