Eva Mendes, 50, says she has come out of 'hiding' for fashion campaign... after announcing she may NEVER act again

As a follower who appreciates both the glamour of Hollywood and the quiet simplicity of home life, I find Eva Mendes’ journey truly inspiring. Having been a big name in Tinseltown with hits like Hitch, it’s heartening to see her embrace a more private life and reemerge when she feels ready, such as in Stella McCartney’s winter 2024 campaign.

The 50-year-old wife of Ryan Gosling is the face of Stella McCartney’s winter 2024 ads.

Mendes, previously a renowned Hollywood actress known for movies such as Hitch, expressed gratitude towards Stella for helping her emerge from seclusion by securing a prominent new opportunity.

The star, identified as Eva de la Caridad Méndez, further remarked that the role she took on was ‘something I didn’t realize I was longing for.’

Over the last ten years, this person is well-known for having stayed primarily at their home in Los Angeles, where they’ve been raising their two children together with Ryan.

In her latest advertisements, she appears more stunning than ever, dressed in shades of pink and black. These ads are part of McCartney’s compassionate winter advertising campaign against animal cruelty.

In the picture, the actress is spotted wearing a sleek, strapless black dress and holding a bag that coordinates with her attire.

Under her image were the words: ‘It’s about f**king time.’ 

Eva was also seen in a pink fake fur coat over a sparkly dress with her hair down. 

Eva shared the ads on her Instagram with the caption: “Thanks, Stella, for helping me emerge from my seclusion!

‘So incredibly proud of this one. Working with designer @stellamccartney

‘Was the job I never knew I needed. 

Engaging with this eco-friendly, cruelty-free company has fundamentally transformed me at a cellular level. Stay tuned for more updates!

Speaking from my perspective as a lifestyle expert, I’ve got some intriguing insights to share. Recently, during an appearance on Good Morning America, she hinted at stepping away from the silver screen of Hollywood films, potentially forever. This could signal a shift towards unexplored creative avenues for her.

During an interview with George Stephanopoulos on Tuesday, the actress stated: ‘I’m unsure about my return [timeline]. If there are compelling roles available. I departed around a decade ago… and at that point, I felt like I had accomplished enough.’

She appeared on Good Morning America to announce and discuss her first children’s book titled “Desi, Mami, and the Never-Ending Worries.

In her allocated time, Mendes discussed the theme behind her illustrated book, a narrative centered around a young girl grappling with persistent fears and anxieties.

As a lifestyle expert, I’d express it this way: I shared that I wrote the narrative as a tool for Esmeralda, age 10, and Amada, age 8, to navigate the intricacies of managing anxiety and unwanted thoughts, offering them guidance along their journey.

She told George Stephanopoulos that the book has aided her in guiding her daughters to avoid accepting everything as true when their minds are working excessively.

Mendes also opened up about taking some time off of acting to raise her family. 

When queried about potential future appearances, Mendes acknowledged that she was unsure yet amenable to intriguing acting opportunities.

10 years ago, I reached a point where I felt like I had truly accomplished something remarkable – I had the privilege of working alongside Ryan Gosling. Let me tell you, it was an indescribable career high! The work we produced together made me think, “This feels like the perfect moment to, in a sense, channel Seinfeld and call it quits.” Who knows what the future holds?

Mendes and Gosling met while filming The Place Beyond the Pines in 2012. 

After two years had passed, the pair found themselves back together on the set of “Lost River,” a film both written and helmed by Gosling, with Mendes in the cast.

Over the course of their relationship, the couple has managed to keep things fairly private – however, during the last twelve months, particularly after Ryan Gosling’s portrayal of Ken in Barbie, there have been more open discussions about their bond than previously.

In 2020, Mendes expressed on Instagram her choice to maintain her personal relationship and family life private by stating: “I have consistently set a clear boundary regarding my partner and children. I will certainly discuss them, within certain constraints, but I will not share photos of our everyday routine.

As my kids are too young to grasp the concept of sharing their photos online, I don’t have their explicit approval. I will wait until they mature enough to make that decision for themselves before posting any of their images online.

In the world of cinema, I’ve had the privilege of walking the red carpet hand-in-hand with my partner, an experience we’ve shared only a handful of times, primarily to promote our film, “The Place Beyond The Pines,” which graced the big screen in 2013.

Eva had shared in the past her rationale for not attending red carpet events alongside Ryan, as evidenced by an Instagram post featuring clips from the movie “Place Beyond The Pines.

She wrote: ‘Magic is Real. We did not meet on set. The magic started way before, but here’s a little magic captured on camera.’

2022 saw the official confirmation that she had been married to Gosling for over a decade, putting an end to years of secret nuptials speculation.

On the Today show on Channel Nine in 2022, she nonchalantly called Gosling her “spouse.
