Mendes confessed she has been thinking about getting back to work for a while now, revealing that “as far as my ambition, it didn’t go away, it just shifted onto the children,” adding that she feels happy to be able to see her daughters grow up, “but now they are four and six, I‘m starting to feel like my ambition is coming back.”

The couple have been quarantining together amid the ongoing coronavirus pandemic, and referring to their life at home with their kids the actress said that it feels “like we are working in a hotel, and the guests are angry and bossy and demand food brought to them.”
The successful pair feel really happy to be “together and safe” no matter the circumstances, as they continue to keep most of their relationship and family life in private.
