#EvaMendes #Acting #Motherhood
A homemaker is the most underrated vocation. Thank you Eva, for celebrating us unapologetically. Happy Mothers Day.
👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼🥰
She sold out. She acted like she didn't want kids. I no longer see her the same way.
@@zechariahcameron3645, then don’t. You do you and find happiness in your decisions. She’s not a sell out to want and love her own family.
@@zechariahcameron3645 people can change? I know I did!
I’d say it’s a luxury as well. What I wouldn’t give to be able to do that but can barely survive with two incomes..
I so admire women who wait for the right kind of love to have children because to raise balanced children it s soo much easier with two balanced parents
Absolutely
Yes!! Some women say you should have kids in your 20’s because that’s the best time for your eggs and it’s less riskier. Although it is true, finding the right partner is much more important in my opinion. It’s not impossible to get pregnant in your 30’s. I’d rather take the lower chance(not significantly lower than 20’s either) and risks of conceiving a baby later, knowing it’ll have 2 healthy balanced parents. It’s not common to find a fit, healthy and balanced partner in your 20’s. Most people in their 20’s are still in school, living with parents, haven’t found out what they want in life and who they are. I believe making such a huge commitment like having kids when you don’t even know what you want with your life,who you are, not financially stable and don’t have a good partner is not a good idea. It’s not fair for the child. A child’s childhood determines the child’s future and adulthood. A child’s childhood is usually determined by the type of parents that raised them. It is our duty to choose the right partner and become fit(mentally, emotionally and financially) ourselves before raising children. They cannot chose who their parents are. So don’t let them down. Don’t ruin their lives because of your incompetence.
OMG If I'd met Ryan Gosling I too would want to have children with him...and I'm 60 LOL!
Right? She said "I want your babies"
Hilarious! Lol! I’m in my 40s and have 3 kids I’m done too. Unless it’s with Ryan lol
Thar sounds desperate
Eva is such a fascinating woman. Good for her. I'm glad she and her family are well. I really hope she comes back to acting, too! :)
Her mother isn't doing well that's why she cried at the end
Literally got emotional at the end. Eva is glowing from her choices. I love it. People underestimate how important those first few years of childhood are! Never thought I'd have kids until I met the right person. I think people want to create good in the world and when we meet a person who wants to do the same, kids can be such a wonderful choice.
I don't think people underestimate those first few years. For a lot of people, however, they don't have the option of not working. Now sure, you have those CEOs that have the nanny raise their kid. But for every one of those, there are a million families just struggling to keep a roof over their head. For those families, deciding not to work is not an option.
@@dontbanmebrodontbanme5403 if you’re struggling, DON’t have children!
I love Eva! She looks really authentic and good hearted.
she's looking old like you
I'm 44 with a 4-year-old, I wasn't mature enough in my 20's and I also had PCOS. I guess she waited for me like I was waiting for her, and when she came it was the BIGGEST surprise, she is so wanted and loved and I am glad I waited. being an older mum though is hard. BUT so rewarding. I'm glad ladies like Eva speak out about older mums having kids. Because it feels like you get frowned upon for doing so. with all the questions like. 'why did you wait so long' 'you not having anymore' one is all that I wanted and one was what I received. MOST don't get that opportunity.
I am suprised in your experiences people have asked such invasive questions! Sorry to hear that
This comment means so much to me. I will be 38 in December with no children. Gives me hope. I would really like to be a mom one day ❤
@@evaramirez2946 You're likely not too old at all! Law of attraction baby! Also the way of life. Ask, believe, affirm, receive.
You give me hope. I am 36 and TTC. I also waited to be super in love and financially stable.
I love this! I've never seen her so real an alive in an interview 💜 new mom working mom here rooting for us, I love how she didn't miss anything we love those kiddos!❤ Praying for ur mom Evawe love u
She's always been a bit of a Raquel Welch doppelganger.
Maybe 50 % @@4seeableTV
Aww that was lovely segment and I wish her mum a speedy recovery ❤
I love Eva, as a human and actress and mom! She’s beautiful and humble. She’s definitely all about family. ❤️💪🏽❤️
Ryan nailed it, "he lives with angels". So grateful to God they are safe with Ryan xo (Love you Eva Mendez, class Act babe.
She’s beautiful. I love how she protects her family!
Men are never asked why they had kids later. Love how she answered.
My ❤️ to Eva and her mom. My mothers birthday would have been tomorrow and the weekend of course all for her. She passed a year ago in June our first birthday and Mother’s Day without her. 🙏🏼❤️
I’m sorry for your loss! My heart and prayers to you and your family!
So sorry for your loss. Sending you so much love.
Sending you love. That's always a difficult 1st anniversary after the passing of a loved one. Something only those whom have experienced that type of loss understands. Sending you love, light, & strength.
This is the 1st interview i've seen of Eva, and wow i'm blown away by her. A true class act, honest, and wonderful mother and person.
It’s my first interview watching Eva! She’s amazing
Eva, I lost my mom in January and it makes me so happy that you are able to be with your kiddos and still care for your mom. I wasn't so lucky. I'm Latin from Brazil, and I'm here, in my birthplace, curating what was left from my mom's well lived life. The last I saw Ryan he was accepting an award and thank you you for inspiring him with your devotion to family. I can see that now. May God continue to give you the strength and the means to care for your beautiful mom ❤🙏
I am sorry for your loss. I lost my mom years ago as well. I am sending you love and strength and virtual hugs. You are not alone💕
Awwwe. 😥. Glad she lived such a good life.
❤❤❤❤❤❤
A great interview by an authentic individual. I hope her mom gets better. ❤️
That was beautiful, had me crying.
Positive, healing energy to Eva’s Mother ♥️
Loved the interview but loved the hug at the end even more! Eva is so sweet and I’m glad she has a great family and husband like Ryan! Gorgeous family!
I dont have any faith in TV personalities but I can feel how good a heart and soul Hoda has.....she is a diamond in the rough
Yes, indeed.
❤❤❤
Oh Eva! I wanted to hug her at the end there. She's such a great (and hilarious in comedy roles) actress, and just a beautiful woman. I hope she will return to acting when she's ready!
Awe her mom not doing so well is so hard . My mom passed away last September , and I think and miss her every second to every Minute of Every-hour every day.. love you mama ❤️♥️
Aww that was a sweet little hug at the end! 🥰🥰
Omg I loved when she talked about meeting Ryan and knowing it was time to make a family. That was so beautiful! They are a nice couple.
Eva, a class act as always and beautiful. Hope your mom gets better and blessings being able to have her in your life.
I LOVE her! Did not realize I would adore Eva so much :). Giving her a virtual HUG!!!
Oh my word she is the definition of classy period!!!I love her!!
Love love love her!!!. Especially the fact that she said she doesn’t miss anything about acting. She knew she was ready to be a mother when she met her husband…ugh its all so similar to my story with my husband. She really should be interviewed more and show young women a more refreshing view on family.
Eva, you're so beautiful ❤️ & an amazing woman 👠. Love your story & Happy Mother's Day. You & Ryan are lovely together! God bless you & your family 🙏
Hoda is so pure.
It was a such cheerful interview. Had me smiling ☺️ till the end.
Love her! She’s a class act. 💕
Wow she’s so real and the ending part about her mother was so touching 🥹🥹🥹
I hope that your mom’s health improves, Eva❤️
Aww I hope her mama is fine!
Good for Eva for following her own path. She didn’t let anyone or society dictate when she should be become a mom
I love this interview, I don't not why but I felt like I had a conversation with some friends about our houses and our kids lol
HAPPY 50TH BIRTHDAY EVA MENDES !!!!
Your family is supposed to be your priority. It’s ok to be fulfilled by your role :)
Awwwww ! I love Eva prayers of Strength & Healing to her mother and family 🙏
Staying home with your kids is a very personal decision, I wasn't able to stay home when my kids were babies and I know I can never make up that time. The time I had with them when they were little was so valued and precious. I have two wonderful twenty something kids today and we are extremely close. Thank you Eva! Loved the interview such an intelligent woman.
Eva has her priorities straight. Her heart is in the right place. And clearly she is afraid of losing her mom. Eva, God is with you❤️ you are so so so stunningly gorgeous inside and out forever
Eva Mendes was born on March 5, 1974, in Miami, Florida, to Cuban parents Eva Pérez Suárez and Juan Carlos Méndez, and was raised by her mother in the Los Angeles neighborhood of Silver Lake, after her parents' divorce. She celebrated her 49th birthday on March 5, 2023
God bless you precious and your beautiful marriage.
"Oh right! I want your babies!" 😂 I love her!
Happy Mother’s Day Eva & Hoda!! 💕💜 prayers for Eva’s Mom 🙏🏽
wow she had a baby at 47!!! So awesome!!!!
She had them at 40 and 42
Such a beautiful interview
Very.
Awe Ava Mendes!! ☺️
It was nice to hear about your girls & Ryan. I hope your mom is okay. Sending love!♥️♥️
She is absolutely gorgeous!
“Oh right I want your babies” lol that was so sweet it is really special to decide to build a family with someone 😌
That was a beautiful touching moment, send you lots of love and well being 🤗
She’s always been my favorite! So beautiful and smart.
Choose to wait until she was ready and met the right partner... that's a concept most don't get.
Eva made the perfect choice for her family- motherhood before career.
Should Eva return to acting, she will be welcomed back with open arms!
On another note, I need the sponge she mentioned!
I love the compassion and the humanity this interview !!! Viva Los Latinos even though they want us out of the country
Happy Mother's Day! Eva u look beautiful! 😃
She is so beautiful and sounds like a wonderful mother xx
"I met Ryan Gosling, I fell in love with Ryan Gosling and I was, like, wait, I want your babies!"
Completely believable scenario really.
GORGEOUS WOMAN ❤❤❤❤😊
Eva Mendes is beautiful funny and compassionate. I wish her and her mom well. If she returns to acting she should do a sitcom easier work schedule and she’s fantastic 🙏🙏🙏
This is SO inspiring coming from you who I was called a look a like in high school by a couple.
I’m 34 and feel very mature and ready at this age to have a child. In every aspect and I feel good about this late age when I’m fully attentive to the idea. Passionate about being a mother and wanting to be a mother over everything. 🤎
Love Eva Mendes. Happy to know you are a real human to stop to live for what you love.
Eva is such a beautiful woman. Motherhood is a 24/7 job with no off days, I admire her for picking such a hard job.
I like her, & she has a wonderful, truly sweet & kind husband too. They are both very fortunate.
Love u Eva. Godbless
I love she feels so happy with her beloved family ❤️💕
Love this interview 🙌
That was sweet of Hoda!❤️
She's a proud mom of two girls ♥️
Prayers for your mom Eva 🙏🏽
A woman embracing motherhood is the single most incredible thing. Screw everything else. Good for her!
stupidest thing i ever heard anyone say, procreation is stupid and immoral. hundreds of thousands of people all say they never asked to b born. it's stupid. it's basically a selfish act
But you have to be able to afford it most women would probably love this
I just love her ! 💖
Beautiful. Family is so important.❤️🙏🏼
I applaud her for choosing motherhood!!!
Ryan is one lucky dude. She is a gorgeous woman who loves to take care of her kids and clean?? God bless. I know my husband would love to switch but I'm a couple of decades too old. PS, I wouldn't mind a one-day switch myself (insert wink here).
Prayers for Eva’s mom. I hope she’s ok. ❤️🙏
So lovely to see you again.
She’s very blessed that she was able to stop working (for the most part) and focus on raising her children.
Edit: I realize she HAS been working: clothing line, the sponge, but I’m glad acting isn’t taking up her time and she can spend with her kids.
I agree beautiful interview
So pure I love this.
Praying for your beautiful momma 🥰
She's so beautiful. Really love her acting. Moms are wonderful humans! Happy belated Mother's Day. Every day is Mother's Day!🌸🌺🌻
Eva is so sweet😊. Love her whole being
She is BEAUTIFUL n motherhood is the hardest job u will ever had. It's a lot of work starting in the tummy. Us women go thru it. Ryan we love u.
I hope she comes back. I loved her in movies
Hope your mom is well Eva. 😊 and hope all of your moms are well too!!
That was refreshing! Hats off to Eva living the life she loves (and it shows)
Eva is so levelheaded and beautiful ♥️
Great interview! 💖
Eva has always been one of my favorite.
She seems very cool n nice person Unexpectly.😮
this interview is precious
I wish I had a woman like Hoda, their hard to find👼🏽
i cried with them at the end.
Cool to see a recent interview with her and to know she still stays busy being a mom and all. so now can tell she more selective what roles she takes anytime and at some point she do a movie or a show maybe later but now she focused at home.
Love her. Hope Momma Eva is on the mend. 🙏
HER first ROLE WAS training DAY!! SHE'S beautiful
I love Eva….. she is so natural!
This interviewer is amazing
Hoda Kotb
