Relationship with Elsa Pataky

Hemsworth began dating Spanish actress Elsa Pataky in early 2010. The couple married later that year and have three children together, including twin sons. Despite initial rumors of a brief courtship, the two were reportedly introduced by talent agent William Ward and quickly developed a strong bond. Although some reports confuse the timeline, Chris and Elsa’s engagement and marriage occurred within the same year.

Divorce Speculations and Media Attention

In 2014, soon after news emerged that the couple was expecting twins, rumors began circulating about possible marital issues. These speculations were often fueled by public sightings of Elsa without Chris and the actors attending events separately. However, no reliable sources confirmed any significant marital discord at that time.
