Penelope Cruz has revealed she and boyfriend Matthew McConaughey are discussing starting a family together - they are looking at the pros and cons of having a baby.

"It would be hard keeping up our nomad life with a baby, we don't like staying in one place for too long. But it might work," she was quoted as saying.

The Spanish beauty also hinted she would like to marry McConaughey, who she met on the set of their film "Sahara" last year after she broke up with Tom Cruise.

"Me and Matthew will be apart for four months while I go to Europe. But when I'm back it would be really nice if we could be together forever," she said.
