Salma Hayek parents: Sami Hayek Dominguez, Diana Jiménez Medina

Salma Hayek Jiménez was born in the Mexican city of Coatzacoalcos, Veracruz.  Her father is of Lebanese descent, Sami Hayek Dominguez.

His ancestors are from the Lebanese city of Baabdat, which Salma and her dad visited half a decade ago to promote her film Kahlil Gibran’s The Prophet.

However, her mum Diana Jiménez Medina on the flip side is an opera singer and talent scout of Spanish descent.

Sami Hayek Dominguez owns an industrial-equipment company and works for an oil company in Mexico. He once ran for mayor of Coatzacoalcos.

During a visit to Madrid over a half a decade ago, Hayek described herself as 50-50 Lebanese and 50-50 Spanish, stating that her grandmother and her maternal great-grandparents were from Spain.

Does Salma Hayek have any siblings?

Sami Hayek, her only younger brother, is a furniture designer. Because of their resemblances, they are frequently misidentified as twins. Salma Hayek and her younger brother Sami are rarely seen together in public, but when they are, it’s obvious they’re related.
