Eva Mendes is in "no rush" to have children. Despite being very happy in her private life, the 34-year-old actress - who is in a long-term relationship with producer George Gargurevich - does not feel ready to start a family.

She said: "It's great that women can work and have kids but I'm in no rush. I was joking the other day that everywhere you look there is a celebrity having a baby - and I said I hoped I didn't catch it. There are just so many things I want to do." Eva has also explained her decision to enter a rehab facility earlier this year to be treated for "personal issues".

She revealed: "Basically, I can't deal with everything life throws at me on my own - I need tools and people around me to help. I don't want to sound like a victim because, come on, I'm one of the luckiest women in the world. "

But I have trouble dealing with the fame side of things, so now I see my therapist every week. For me, it's a healthy thing to do."
