Eva Mendes just revealed how she is grateful to have lived till the age of 50 and did not give up on her journey.
In an exclusive conversation with PEOPLE magazine, Mendes expressed that even though she never imagined her life at 50, she couldn’t be happier.
The Training Day actress, who now shares daughters, Esmeralda Amada and Amada Lee with husband Ryan Gosling, continued, “I certainly didn’t think I’d have kids and be locked down. So I’m really happy that a certain man came into my life and made me change my mind about all that stuff.”
Reflecting on her life till now, Mendes added, “At 50, I define beauty as not definable. It can be anything and everything. It's all around you. If you're open to seeing it, it's everywhere.”
“I don't think I imagined my life over 30 when I was younger. I thought 30 was old then. I don't think I had a picture of what I wanted my life to look like. I never did, but I'm pretty happy it's turning out the way it is,” Eva Mendes told the outlet, as she expressed gratitude over the life she has lived.
