The 'Place Beyond The Pines' star couldn't help but gush about the '2 Fast 2 Furious' actress, with whom he has 14-month-old daughter Esmeralda.

He said: "I know that I'm with the person I'm supposed to be with."

When asked about the qualities he looks for in a woman, he added: "That she's Eva Mendes. There's nothing else I'm looking for."

The 35-year-old actor also revealed he was looking forward to his first proper Christmas with his little girl.

He told HELLO! magazine: "This will be our first Christmas where [Esmeralda is] sort of taking it all in, so that's exciting."

Meanwhile, Eva previously revealed the couple named their daughter after the heroine from 'The Hunchback of Notre Dame'.

She shared: "We love 'Hunchback of Notre Dame', we loved the name, the cartoon and the novel, you know it just kind kept coming back to us.

"It's actually a very popular Latin name so it's easy for my father and certain family members that still don't speak English to pronounce. That was a good selling point."
