The secret for keeping romance alive in a marriage? Salma Hayek's recipe includes getting hot and heavy with a cell phone.

The 46-year-old Mexican actress recently spoke with Canadian magazine More about spicing up her relationship with CEO husband Francois-Henri Pinault by exchanging steamy text messages.

“Of course, I can show you a text that would surprise you,” said Hayek to More. “I can show you a thousand things. But I’m not going to.”

People Magazine is also reporting that the Oscar nominee, who married Pinault on Valentine’s Day in 2009 and gave birth to their 5-year-old daughter Valentina in 2007, also revealed how marriage has made her more confident than ever.

“I really enjoy having somebody that I can be weak with,” said Hayek. “If I’m insecure or afraid, I can talk about it, and he’ll give me strength and courage. With us there’s no power struggle. I don’t mind doing things for him because he does so much for me, and he feels the same way.”

Hayek is currently promoting her new film “Savages” in Europe, which also stars Benicio del Toro.
