Linda Evangelista 10 Fast Facts, Biography, Wiki
In 1987, Evangelista married Gérald Marie, who was the head of Elite Model Management’s Paris office.
They were divorced in 1993.
She also dated actor Kyle MacLachlan, whom she first met on a photoshoot for Barneys New York in 1992.
The couple became engaged in 1995 but broke up in 1998.
Afterwards, she dated French football player Fabien Barthez.
She became pregnant but miscarried, six months into the pregnancy.
The couple broke up in 2000, reunited in 2001, and then officially ended their relationship in 2002.
In October 2006, Evangelista gave birth to a son, Augustin James, refusing to name his father, sparking rumours.
While pregnant, she appeared on the August 2006 cover of Vogue.
In late June 2011, Evangelista filed court papers that revealed her son was fathered by billionaire Frenchman François-Henri Pinault, whom Evangelista had dated for four months in late 2005 and early 2006.
Pinault later married actress Salma Hayek.
After several court appearances aimed at establishing a child-support agreement, on August 1, 2011, Evangelista formally filed for a child support order in Manhattan Family Court, seeking $46,000 in monthly child support from Pinault.
It was reported that if granted, this amount “would probably be the largest support order in the history of the family court”.
A heavily publicized child support trial began on May 3, 2012, and included testimony from both Pinault and Evangelista, with Evangelista’s attorney claiming that Pinault had never supported the child.
Several days into the trial, on May 7, 2012, Evangelista and Pinault reached an out-of-court settlement.
In a 1997 interview, Evangelista said that she was a practising Roman Catholic and that her favourite book was the Bible.
Linda Evangelista is one of the original supermodels alongside Claudia Schiffer, Cindy Crawford, Christy Turlington and Naomi Campbell.
The internationally recognised beauty was born on May 10th 1965 in Ontario, Canada.
Linda was raised in a traditional Catholic family and by the time she was 12, knew she wanted to pursue a modeling career.
An agent from Elite Model Management discovered her when she entered the 1988 Miss Teen Niagara beauty pageant.
Though she didn’t win the pageant this turned out to be the vital step towards her hugely successful career.
She later moved to New York City and signed with Elite Model Management, eventually then moving to Paris to further her career.
Her beautifully defined facial structure and blue-green eyes have appeared on the covers of nearly every fashion magazine including Elle, French Vogue, W and Harper’s Bazaar, totally over 600 covers and counting.
On one of better known covers, Vogue features a heavily pregnant Linda, aged 41.
Linda’s fame and modeling prowess has led her to walk for an enviably long list of high profile fashion houses, including Chanel, Versace, Christian Dior, Valentino, Hermès and Dolce & Gabbana.
During one traumatic haircut Linda had her long brunette tresses chopped off into a style she described as “a bowl cut with sideburns”, she reportedly cried during the haircut but it became one of the defining moments of her career as her look became even more standout, and was soon replicated by women worldwide.
Following this Linda rapidly progressed to be arguably one of the most successful models of all time thanks to her sleek and modern look.
George Michael even featured Lind Evangelista in two of his music videos ‘Freedom’ and ‘Too Funky’ such was the extent of her success.
Linda once famously said, during an interview with Vogue: “We don’t wake up for less than $10,000 a day…”, speaking of her and the other “supers” paving the way to models having more control over their own careers.
Supermodels go famously hand in hand with high profile, well off men and Linda’s love life is no exception.
She was married to Elite Model Management executive Gerald Marie, dated actor Kyle MacLachlan, French football star Fabien Bathez and Hard Rock Café founder Peter Morton.
In 2011 scandal surrounded Linda and Salma Hayek and her husband François-Henri Pinault as Linda claimed child support from Pinault for her son.
Though not completely retired from modeling, Linda now acts mostly as an activist for campaigns such as Mac’s Viva Glam and HIV/AIDS research fund.

From 1995 to 1998, she was engaged to actor Kyle MacLachlan. She was also in a relationship with football player Fabien Barthez till 2006
Although initially Linda Evangelista’s 1988 haircut led to cancellation of runway shows, the style soon picked up and the haircut began to be referred to as “The Linda” and inspired the creation of a wig, which became known as “The Evangelista”.
In 1990, while talking to Jonathan Van Meter on money matters, she had jokingly said, “We don’t wake up for less than $10,000 a day”. Published in Vogue, the quote became famous and continues to be referred till now.
Former supermodel Linda Evangelista took to Instagram to share that she was left “permanently deformed” and “unrecognizable” after undergoing two unsuccessful corrective surgeries five years ago.
“To my followers who have wondered why I have not been working while my peers’ careers have been thriving, the reason is that I was brutally disfigured by Zeltiq’s CoolSculpting procedure which did the opposite of what it promised,” she wrote.
