May 26 (UPI) -- Salma Hayek confessed this week that she once wrongly suspected her husband of cheating.

The 50-year-old American actress said on Friday's episode of The Graham Norton Show that she mistakenly thought Francois-Henri Pinault was unfaithful after she heard a "sexy voice" on the French businessman's answering machine.

"I trust him, but one day there was a message on his phone that said, 'Hi, if you want to improve your English why don't we practice now,'" Hayek recalled, according to Entertainment Tonight. "It was a very sexy voice and I thought, 'What the hell? Who is this Elisa coming after my husband?'"

"Anyway, about three hours later, I just screamed and shouted at him, 'Who is Elisa and why is she calling you?'" she said.

Hayek was chagrined to discover the message was actually from an app.

"He was laughing when he explained it was an app that was helping him improve his English accent!" she said.

Hayek and Pinault welcomed daughter Valentina in 2007, and married in Paris in 2009. The pair looked the happy couple at the 2017 Cannes International Film Festival this week, where Hayek has been trying out different hairstyles.

"Having your hair up all the time, it's very tiring and boring," the actress said Sunday while wearing a pink wig.

Hayek told Red magazine in 2016 that she considers her marriage and family her greatest achievement. She will next star in Beatriz at Dinner with Chloe Sevigny, and is also slated for Drunk Parents with Alec Baldwin.
