Two years later, the couple married, soon followed by the birth of son Leonardo (now 15) and daughter Luna (12). As the 16th anniversary of their July 13, 2010 nuptials approaches, the now-52-year-old Penelope Cruz tells People that even now, the mystery between the couple is alive and well. “I feel like I’m still learning [in my relationship], you know?” she said. “And I am with somebody that I’ve known for 33 years.”
The star is currently promoting Olivia Wilde-directed sex/relationship comedy The Invite, in which she stars alongside Wilde, Seth Rogen, and Edward Norton. And according to Cruz, in between artistic experiments she continues her journey of exploration with her spouse. “I really know that person, but it’s like, is there a day where you really get to know yourself?” she asked. “No. So the same with your partner.”
Now 57, Bardem just seems mystified that he’s actually married to Cruz. “She’s a woman I’m so blessed by having had the chance to be at the same time, in the same place, in life,” he said in May. “Penelope is an amazing, beautiful, good human being—the way she relates to her family, to her friends, to our kids, to me, to herself. It’s been a lot of years, and I haven’t seen a hint of malice in her.”
“On top of that, she’s amazingly f***ing beautiful!” he added. “When I see her being photographed on some magazines, I go, Is that my wife? Jesus, is it? It must be!”
