Today I have found this lovely candid of Rachel and her family while celebrating her 40. birthday on march 07. You can read a small article about the picture and her birthday below. Enjoy! Click the thumbnail or the link below to view the picture.

Happy 40th birthday to Rachel Weisz!

The Academy Award-winning actress was spotted celebrating her big day with her boys — director fiancé Darren Aronofsky and son Henry Chance, 3 ½ — last Sunday in New York City.

After enjoying lunch together, the trio strolled around the Big Apple before making their way home.

Is there any chance Henry will join Weisz and Aronofsky in the entertainment industry? Not if she can help it, the actress said recently.

“I hope he’s not an actor … I’d dissuade him as hard as I could,” Weisz explains. “The success level is so low. It’s very hard. The odds are so against you.”
