Elsa Pataky sat down last night on El Hormiguero to talk about her relationship and how she is handling her separation from Chris Hemsworth. Given both of their professions, the host wanted to know how a couple deals with being apart for so long. In Elsa and Chris's case, although they promised each other "not to be apart for more than three weeks" (3 weeks), they have ultimately had to get used to it.
The Spanish actress confessed that they have even gone as long as two months (2 months) without seeing each other, much more than they would desire. Pataky admitted that these absences are difficult and that, most worryingly, one can end up getting used to the distance. However, the couple has managed to adapt and overcome the difficulties, and their relationship remains one of the strongest in Hollywood.
Elsa Pataky reveals how she feels about being apart from Chris Hemsworth
Elsa Pataky is promoting her new television project and last night she appeared as a guest on El Hormiguero. On Pablo Motos's set, she showed her most approachable side and shared juicy information about her marriage to Chris Hemsworth.
One of the things she revealed was how she deals with being apart from Chris. Both Elsa and Hemsworth are well-known actors and their work leads them to spend time away from home. In the Spanish actress's case, although her husband is the one with more film commitments, she also often travels for image projects.
In this regard, Pataky confessed that when they decided to be together, they promised each other "not to be apart for more than two or three weeks" (2 or 3 weeks). However, much to their regret, "it's been difficult to keep it," due to what filming a movie entails. In fact, she acknowledged that once they were "apart for two months" (2 months).
Regarding how it is possible to cope with this distance, both Elsa and Chris have learned to accept it. For the actress, the most worrying thing is "that you end up getting used to the absence." Contrary to what many might think, the truth is that the couple has overcome the difficulties and they remain as in love as on the first day.
Elsa recalls that it was Hemsworth's voice that made her fall in love, and that he was impressed when he saw her on a motorcycle on their first date. Since that day, they have strengthened their relationship, being one of the most solid couples in Hollywood.
This is how Elsa Pataky's life has changed with Chris Hemsworth
In her interview, Pataky also reflected on the family she has built with Chris and the radical change her life has taken. She acknowledged that, at certain times, she has prioritized her children's well-being and family stability over her professional career. However, she emphasized that these decisions were made consciously and that she doesn't regret them.
Hemsworth has also made sacrifices for his family and for the good of their three children, being a fully committed father to them. Both have worked as a team to raise their children and keep a balanced home. Pataky highlighted that the key to their relationship is mutual respect and understanding each other's needs.
Now that their children have grown, Elsa has experienced a new turn that allows her to resume her work pace. While they were young, she put part of her professional career on hold to take care of them, but now she is gradually accepting commitments. For example, the new series that will premiere soon on a well-known platform.
Elsa plays a psychologist who has to deal with her own traumas while assisting her patients. This return confirms the actress's new plans and represents a new challenge for the couple, who will have to face upcoming separations.
