Eva Mendes Gives Rare Insight Into Her and Ryan Gosling’s Kids’ Summer

For Eva Mendes, this summer isn’t turning out exactly how she’d planned.

The Hitch actress recently shared that despite her plans for an “easy” summer, her and Ryan Gosling‘s daughters Esmeralda, 8, and Amada, 7, had other ideas. 

“So this summer was supposed to be easy,” Eva said on her July 5 Instagram Story, “I was like, ‘Bring boredom back.'”

She continued, “But you know things happen, and the kids want to do certain classes and things. So now I am just a chauffeur. A chauffeur, a water girl. It’s hot, so I bring them water.”

And in addition to those unexpected roles, the 2 Fast 2 Furious star added that she’s also become “a wiper-downer” when her two girls become “sweaty all over each other.”

So with her relaxing summer plans gone out the window, Eva finished with, “I just wanted to say that this summer of boredom that I had planned, turned.”
