Penelope Cruz transformed by motherhood

Actress Penelope Cruz, who is awaiting the release of Pirates of the Caribbean: On Stranger Tides, is not the same person anymore since she gave birth to her first child in January. She said that motherhood has changed her life like never before.

“From the first second, you feel so much love. It is a revolutionary experience. That's the best way I can describe it. It transforms you completely, in a second. Nature is very wise and gives you nine months to prepare, but in that moment, when you see that face, you are transformed forever," US Vogue magazine quoted the actress as saying.

Penelope and her husband Javier Bardem want their children to live a normal life. “I want my son - and my kids if I have more - to grow up in a way that is as anonymous as possible," she added.
