'Eva Mendes reveals the surprising No.1 Cause of Divorce': Sweatpants

Throwback to Eva Mendes' Controversial Sweatpants Statement!

Back in 2015, a Hollywood beauty known for her discretion gave the world a tantalizing glimpse into her private life. Eva Mendes, often lauded for her prowess in maintaining privacy, especially when she kept her pregnancy with heartthrob Ryan Gosling under wraps, decided it was time to share a whimsical insight.

Sweatpants: A Relationship's Downfall?

So what did Mendes serve up? A sizzling take on casual wear. When asked by Extra about her choice of home attire, Eva didn't merely pass on the question. Instead, she exhibited a deep aversion. As if one had inquired about consuming nails for breakfast or appointing Justin Bieber as her toddler's guardian. "No no no, sweatpants, no no no... you can't do sweatpants," she exclaimed. "Ladies, number one cause of divorce in America, sweatpants—no, you can't do that!" she added, semi-jokingly.

Fact or Fiction?

Sure, this claim hasn't been underpinned by rigorous scientific research (to our knowledge), but Eva's word on this quirky association had fans and readers in splits. The Internet, as expected, went on a frenzied roller-coaster. Conversations spiraled around whether Mendes' secret for relationship harmony was merely avoiding those comfy cotton blends.

In fact, while the vast majority of couples weren't about to toss out their cozy wear in a bid to maintain marital bliss, they certainly entertained the notion. After all, the statement did come from the very woman who had snagged Ryan Gosling! Perhaps ditching the loungewear was the first step to attracting your own version of "The Notebook" star.

Looking back, it's endearing to see celebrities, despite their elevated status, indulge in such playful banter. Whether there's any truth to Mendes' claim or not, one thing's for sure – her statement will go down in the annals of Hollywood's wittiest moments, making us smile and ponder all at once.
