Elsa Pataky will celebrate her 43rd birthday on July 18, but her hunky husband Chris Hemsworth got the party started a few days early with a special trip to the Spanish party island of Ibiza.
The celebrity couple – who are parents to daughter India Rose, seven, and twin boys Tristan and Sasha, five – were joined by a cohort of their close friends aboard a yacht chartered by luxury travel agency Roman Fortunato for the festivities.
WATCH Chris Hemsworth is left speechless by a very awkward interview question!
Taking to social media, Thor star Chris posted a series of snaps from the lively weekend on Instagram stories.
Spanish-born Elsa shared an album of photos with her 3.1 million followers, branding the group her “favourite people”.
“Early birthday celebrations with my favourite people,” the Tidelands actress captioned the post in English and her native Spanish.
Chris and Elsa are well used to the laid back beach and ocean lifestyle, spending most of the time raising their three children at their sprawling mansion in bohemian Byron Bay.
The Hemsworth’s Byron neighbours, Hollywood actor Matt Damon and his Argentinian wife Luciana Barroso, joined them on the fun filled Mediterranean getaway.
The couples often enjoy trips and days out together, taking their gaggle of kids on holiday to Rottnest Island in Western Australia in March.
Matt and Luciana share daughters Isabella, 13, Gia Zavala, 10 and Stella, eight, as well as raising Luciana’s 20-year-old daughter Alexia from a previous relationship.
Elsa Pataky spoke to People Magazine about her and Chris’ close friendship with the Damons in 2016.
“They are such amazing people,” she said.
“We have three kids, they have four kids, so we ended up making the same plans because everything we do with our kids, so it’s easier to do things with people that understand you.
“Chris has been a big fan of Matt Damon, me too – and then when I met his wife I’m even more a fan of his wife!
“[Luciana] is Argentinian, so we speak Spanish. So for me, it’s a relief yes, somebody I can speak Spanish with! We’ve become very good friends.”
