Penelope
Cruz Doesn't Believe in Marriage
3/5/08
Actress Penelope Cruz has no plans to get married anytime soon, because
she doesn't understand the significance of the union.
The sexy Latina, who is rumored to be dating Oscar winner Javier Bardem,
admits she would love to join her best pal Salma Hayek and become a mother
in the future - but insists you don't need a wedding to be a happy family.
She says, "I would love to have children some day, but not for
now. I don't know if I believe in marriage.
"I believe in family, in love, in children. It depends on the
situation but nowadays I am not sure what marriage is for."
Cruz's comments echo fellow Latina Hayek's stance on marriage - the
Frida star recently claimed she has "no need" to make her
relationship with businessman Francois-Henri Pinault official, saying:
"I don't have a need for marriage. You want to grow old with someone,
you want to have a partner and to have children - we have all those
things. Some people need the commitment.
Maybe we'll just make the party!"
