Salma Hayek and Alfonso Cuarón have been friends for years, which they happily inherited from their children, with whom they have traveled, vacationed, red carpeted and even graduated together.
Lately Elm Teodoro Cuaron, the Mexican filmmaker’s youngest son, shared some photos and videos from the graduation ceremony at ACS International School in Hillingdon, UK. In it he is seen wearing a cap and gown, accompanied by his father and sister Tess Bu, who cheered him on as he received his diploma.
But the following picture caught everyone’s attention: Graduation Ceremony in which he took part accompanied by Valentina Paloma PinaultHayek’s eldest daughter.
Bu (20 years old) and Valentina Paloma (15) are the most active on their social networks and have left in them testimonies of the friendship that has united them for several years.
For his part, Olmo (18) is more reserved, but his degree must be very meaningful for him, so he decided to share this success.
The first photo shows Olmo in a dark suit, white shirt and red tie and Valentina in a black dress with a bustier and holding a white rose. In a second picture, they’re having fun like the teenagers they are: they donned hats and plastic goggles and pretended to play the inflatable saxophone and guitar for a fun photo. Most recently, they showcased their lip-synching skills with a video for 2Pac’s “Hit ‘Em Up.”
Though some claim there’s more to them than just friendship, many others describe them as perfect friends, charmed by their youthful freshness and taste in music. But Bus’s comment wins everyone over: he’s called Olmo a “baller,” something like the boy who lives tall. You know, brotherly love.
Olmo Teodoro and Tess Bu are the result of Alfonso Cuarón’s marriage to actress Annalisa Bugliani, to whom he was married from 2001 to 2008. Both are known for appearing alongside their father at the Oscars.
