Date of Birth: March 5, 1974

Mendes is also the creative director and face of Circa Beauty; she owns her own businesses that range from the fashion to beauty line. She is a passionate supporter and active participant in fights against breast cancer. She is a mother, a sister, a daughter and is in her dream relationship with fellow dapper actor Ryan Gosling.
