How late motherhood changed the life of Ryan Gosling’s wife, Eva Mendes

Today, Eva Mendes is 48 years old and the father of her two daughters, Ryan Gosling, is 41. The family has changed them both: from sex symbols, the actors have become ideal family men.

The Sacred Motors Inc star called parenthood “the most creative thing” she’s ever been involved in.

“I’m an actress, I’ve designed clothes, I’ve done different things. But life with kids is like nothing,” she says of her daughters Esmeralda Amada, 7, and Amada Lee, 6.

“It seems to me that now I have returned to my childhood,” she explains. “My mother was always by my side until I was 9 years old and the years spent with her shaped me as a person.”

Eva is sure that she is very lucky not to be able to work and be with her daughters. She says she is “obsessed with children and motherhood”.

However, Ryan Gosling is attracting attention. Sometimes Eva will even shoot with him so that she and her husband can be together as a couple and remember that they are not just parents. Parting with girls is always dramatic – after all, actors’ children!

Mendes admits she’s not exactly missing out on acting, but that doesn’t mean she’s completely ruling herself out of returning to the screen.

“I think that might be fun. But the list of what I’m ready to play in has become so short! I no longer want to participate in films with scenes of violence and sex. There’s not much left,” Mendez laughs.
