Elsa Pataky on the joy and the chaos

Elsa Pataky may be known in Australia as the wife of national treasure/our greatest export, actor Chris Hemsworth. But she’s actually more famous than her Thor-star husband in her home country of Spain. And we think the more that Australian gets to know this horseback-riding, yoga-loving mum of three, the more we’ll think of Chris as ‘Elsa Pataky’s husband’.

We caught up with Elsa on set for her Body+Soul cover shoot in Byron Bay’s hinterland, and she was surprisingly candid about the chaos of motherhood, the realities of ageing, what self-care means to her now, and what the silver linings of COVID have been for herself, Chris, and her family.
