Eva Mendes’ brother says she’s a "great" mother.
The ‘Hitch’ actress gave birth to a baby girl with boyfriend Ryan Gosling by her side in Los Angeles last month, and her sibling Juan Carlos Mendes has revealed the couple have taken to parenthood very well.
The seafood shop owner told In Touch Weekly magazine: "Of course, I’ve held the baby.
"We went to visit them in the hospital – the whole family was there.
"We’re a very tight, tight family, and Ryan, his family is the same way – very supportive."
He added: "They’re great parents. Ryan’s going to be a great father. He’s just such a down-to-earth, nice guy. You couldn’t ask for anything better."
Juan declined to reveal his newborn niece’s name something Eva and Ryan are yet to announce – as he admitted the couple are "very private", despite their celebrity status.
But he hinted the tot’s moniker incorporates Eva’s Cuban heritage, saying: "Well, there’s the family name."
