So she will have something to celebrate when back in the UK too - and will no doubt have some lovely plans involving her famous family.
The teenager is Salma's only child with husband Francois Henri Pinault. Valentina was primarily kept out of the spotlight during her childhood but is appearing in public more and more now that she's older.

The actress opened up about their experience in lockdown and admitted that Valentina found it hard being away from her friends.
"Lockdown was very difficult for a teenager. My daughter Valentina was very independent and did her online schoolwork on her own, but she didn't enjoy it. she also really missed her friends," she said.
Salma also revealed that she was glad she had her daughter when she did, aged 41, as it has allowed her to be a better person.
"I got to do a lot of things that were important to me first. Most crucially, I had her with the right person at a time when I could really focus on [motherhood]," she added.

During an appearance on The Ellen DeGeneres Show last year, Salma and her daughter discussed why their living situation is quite unique, revealing that their London home is haunted. "It's not [haunted] like before," said Salma.
"I didn't see these but somebody didn't want to work there anymore because the piano played by itself, and he wouldn't go to the third floor because he saw..." She added: "Lights go on and off, or the doors and windows open and close. I've seen some of it."
Valentina is growing up fast!
Valentina was in the audience and Ellen asked her to confirm if she'd seen anything spooky happening at their house. "Oh yeah, I get it the worst. I've seen the actual things, [the ghosts] twice," she confessed.

"But a lot of people in the house have seen it," added Salma, explaining: "My husband thinks it's absolute nonsense, I'm always the negotiator in the middle so I said, 'I'm going to bring somebody, even if it's not true, at least they might psychologically think it's over.'"
