Penelope began to film, being very young, and admits that the question of age began to arise at that time and does not subside to this day. "When I was 22 years old, journalists were constantly asked, I'm not afraid of aging? At 22 years! This is a stupid question for this age. My parents worked not to give up hands to put children on their feet. I am very grateful to them for the realism they gave me. As soon as someone begins to talk to me about aging, I immediately stop this conversation. It does not deserve discussion. Of course, a lot has changed in my life after the birth of the daughter. In the yard of 2017, and ask questions about aging, I consider madness, but, unfortunately, they become more frequent with the advent of children, "says Cruz.
