The Australian actor has shared his sentiments and love of life as a family man. He married his wife, Spanish actress Elsa Pataky, in December of 2010 and have three children together.

What else do we know about Chris Hemsworth?

The “Thor” actor was reported as having a net worth of $90 million last year. He’s a Leo who loves to surf and enjoys a good pizza. Fans may already know about his brothers, Luke and Liam Hemsworth, but may not know about his aunt, Joanna Van Os.

She was married to Rod Ansell, a man who was the prototype for “Crocodile Dundee.” Chris Hemsworth has had a blockbuster film career, but also once starred in an Australian version of “Dancing with the Stars” in 2006.

The recent announcement from wife, Elsa Pataky

Chris Hemsworth’s wife, Elsa Pataky, recently shared a big announcement during a trip to her native Spain for a lingerie promotion. She said their family would be spending Christmas this year in their new Australian home.

She was excited to talk about moving and discussed the new location feels Mediterranean, and like home. She’s already planted her olive trees, one of her favorite things. Chris Hemsworth has a few favorite things of his own as well.

Some of his favorite, and most expensive things

It’s not uncommon to see wealthy Hollywood stars spend large amounts of cash on blings and things. True Chris Hemsworth fans might be able to recite some of the more popular buys the actor wears, like his Chrome Hearts sunglasses.

The luxury shades retail for $1,500. He also once hired an indigenous artist, Otis Hope Carey, to commission a custom mural in his home. The work of art is reported to have cost thousands. He has a few sweet rides in his garage, too. He has been seen driving a $200,000 Cadillac Escalade. He also owns sleek, $90,000 Audi Q7 in his favorite color, black.

Hemsworth says it’s impressive and functional. His surfboards and three kids all fit nicely.

Chris Hemsworth partners with Audi

Chris Hemsworth teamed up with Audi Australia in 2015 as a brand ambassador. Andrew Doyle, managing director for Audi Australia, shared the partnership with Hemsworth “exemplifies its love of film.” He goes on to say that the “Thor” actor is a laid back family may and personifies the “true essence of Audi style and sophistication.”

Audi has made a huge market impact with its Marvel Cinematic Universe marketing partnership, too.

Chris Hemsworth is loved by fans globally. He’s a megastar who, to many, is larger than life. But it’s clear; he keeps himself grounded and at his core is a dedicated family man. That doesn’t mean he doesn’t take advantage of his success and enjoy a few luxuries, though.

Lucky for him, he’s found one such luxury with his Audi Q7, that speaks to both his upscale stardom and his practical need for car seats and surfboards.
