Hollywood actress Eva Mendes wants kids after 41

London: Eva Mendes 37, has no plans to start a family anytime soon, and says she will think about it only when she turns 41.

"I have to be honest, I don`t feel the urge yet. Maybe I`ll do it when I`m 41 or something, that`s happened to a lot of people I know who decided not to. I don`t feel the ticking clock," Mendes told Stylist magazine. Mendes, who has been in a relationship with filmmaker George Augusto for nine years, admits that she wants to master certain skills before becoming a parent, reports contactmusic.com. "Not knowing how to cook would worry me if I became a parent. There are so many things I need to get together before I do that. Cooking is one, but I also need to learn to swim. We just got a pool," she said. IANS
