When Antonio Banderas and Nicole Kimpel started dating

Banderas and Kimpel started dating in 2014, shortly after the ‘Zorro’ star ended his 18-year-long marriage with ex-wife Melanie Griffith. Since the start of their relationship, the pair have been inseparable, with the actor frequently posting adorable pictures of her on social media. Flaunting their bond, the pair have frequently graced red carpets with Kimpel proudly by Banderas' side. The couple recently attended the Talia Awards Candidates party, and the 95th Annual Academy Awards, where they looked stunning in their chic ensemble.

Previously, Banderas claimed that Kimpel was a little reserved in public at the beginning of their relationship. At the time, Banderas respected how Kimpel, a Dutch financial adviser, maintained a separate work life from his glitzy one. Kimpel was born in Germany but later moved to the US to pursue her undergraduate studies. Then, Kimpel earned her degree in Geneva, Switzerland, and after working briefly in banking and finance, she and her twin sister Barbara founded their own business, Baniki.

How Nicole Kimpel saved Antonio Banderas’ life?

Banderas is undoubtedly one of the most celebrated stars of showbiz but still, he cherishes simple, cozy date nights with Kimpel, without the glitz and glamour, according to Amomama. "For us? It's exactly the opposite of what we've done today," he said told US Magazine at the 70th Annual Primetime Emmy Awards, adding "Basically it's reading books, exercising, visiting family." Previously, the ‘Desperado’ star credited his girlfriend for saving his life by giving him an extra strength aspirin that she bought just a day before he suffered a scary heart attack.

"She bought this aspirin, which is the only thing that she found and she found the maximum one, I think it was five milligrams,” Banderas said in an interview on 'Jimmy Kimmel Live’, as per MEAWW’s previous report. When he started having heart attack symptoms the following day, Kimpel quickly put aspirin on his tongue, an act Banderas said saved his life. "The next morning, when I started having the symptoms and I clearly knew what was going on, she put one of those aspirins inside of my tongue and that saved my life. So I had a second chance, and some stuff changed in my life, since then,” he added further.
