Elsa Pataky has revealed she ‘doesn’t know’ how her marriage to Chris Hemsworth ‘survived’, explaining the pair were under a lot of pressure at the beginning of their relationship.

The couple married back in 2010, after just months of dating and have since gone on to have three 𝘤𝘩𝘪𝘭𝘥ren together – India, 𝐛𝐨𝐫𝐧 in 2012 and twin boys Tristan and Sasha, who were 𝐛𝐨𝐫𝐧 in 2014.

The pair married back in 2010.

Naturally, every couple who have been together for so many years go through all kinds of challenges and changes.

And being in the public eye can make things all the more intense.

“In the beginning it was beautiful,” Pataky, 47, told Vogue Australia.

“When I met him, he wasn’t known at all and I grew with him and experienced all his successes and changes, and then he became just so huge and I’ve been sharing that too.”

She explained she doesn’t know how they ‘survived as a couple’ after moving so quickly in the early years of their relationship.

“We did everything very quickly – I don’t know how we survived as a couple. We were married and then a year after we had kids,” Pataky added.

“It puts a lot of pressure on a marriage, but we came out good because there is a lot of love between us and we are very strong personalities but love each other so much. We make it work.”

Chris Hemsworth recently received a star on the Hollywood Boulevard.

Over the years, Hemsworth, 40, has also spoken about their marriage, explaining from the moment they met it ‘just made sense’.

In an interview with GQ back in 2017, he also spoke about the beginning of their marriage and the challenges of having kids.

“My wife and I fell in love, had kids, didn’t really see each other for a few years, then fell back in love,” he said.

Just recently, Hemsworth gave a speech while receiving a star on the Hollywood Boulevard.

The accolade makes him the 2,781st person in the industry to receive one.

In his speech, he thanked Pataky for ‘putting her dreams aside’ to support his.

“I want to say thank you to my beautiful wife, who has been here for my entire career basically by my side, endlessly encouraging and supportive,” he said. “And it doesn’t get lost on me that she put aside her own dreams in order to support mine and, again, [I am] forever in your debt.

“The fact [is] that nothing that I do, any of these moments, these special occasions and events, none of it is special without you by my side. I love you.”
