Elsa Pataky and Chris Hemsworth celebrated their 15th anniversary earlier in December. For the occasion, Pataky shared a video recapping her holiday season, showing her alongside Hemsworth and their family as they enjoyed themselves on a beachy location. 

Throughout the clip, Hemsworth and Pataky were seen having a great time, holding each other and laughing, with them enjoying the sunset. A clip also showed Pataky tackling Hemsworth to the ground and plying him with kisses. "Happy holidays!!" she captioned the post, adding a heart eyes and a Santa Claus emoji. 

The couple married 15 years ago, in 2010, after being set up by Hemsworth's agent. Over the years, the two have opened up about their dynamic and the hard work that it takes to keep a long-term relationship going. 

"There was no light bulb moment," said Hemsworth in an interview with Elle. "From the first time we met, we just made sense. She's fun. She's outgoing, and she has a sense of humor and a passionate attitude toward life, which is nice to try and keep up with."

The pair have since welcomed three kids: India, Tristan, and Sasha, sharing frequent updates from their life in Australia through their social media.
