Salma Hayek has denied claims she is set to spend $2m on a second wedding.

The actress — who wed Francois-Henri Pinault at City Hall in Paris on Valentine’s Day — insists reports she is planning a lavish follow-up ceremony and reception at the end of April are “ridiculous”.

“I think a wedding is about love, friends, family and fun,” the 42-year-old tells People magazine. “I think spending millions of dollars on a wedding is ridiculous and it has never been my dream. I would never do that.”

Hayek and Pinault — the CEO of luxury-goods company PPR — welcomed daughter Valentina Paloma in September 2007.
