Penélope's younger sister, Mónica Cruz, was born in March 1977 in Alcobendas, Spain. The sisters were extremely close growing up and remain tight to this day.
Just like her older sister, Mónica developed a passion for dance and performance at an early age, studying traditional ballet and flamenco at The Royal Academy of Dance. She joined Joaquín Cortés' flamenco dance company upon graduation and stayed with them until 2002.

She decided to pursue a career in acting, appearing in three seasons of the Spanish TV drama Un Peso Adelante quickly after. She has continued to make appearances in several TV shows, movies and music videos in a variety of languages, earning her best reviews for the 2006 Italian drama The Inquiry.
Mónica is also a prominent part of the fashion industry, making her foray in 2007 when she designed a collection for Mango with Penélope. The two have worked on several campaigns and collections together, most recently for Geox in 2023.
Mónica has also worked with Loewe and Agent Provocateur and has dabbled in modeling as well. The actress welcomed a daughter named Antonella Cruz Sánchez in May 2013 through artificial insemination.

Penélope and Mónica's youngest sibling is their brother Eduardo Cruz, born in February 1985, and also a part of the entertainment industry.
Unlike his two sisters, Eduardo found his passion in music and began composing and creating music as early as 14 years old. He initially found success in the latin music industry.

However, he then decided to venture into film composition, and made his splashy debut while working with Hans Zimmer on the music for 2011's Pirates of the Caribbean: On Stranger Tides. The project turned out to be a family affair, with Penélope starring in the film and Mónica acting as a double for her sister when she was heavily pregnant.
Eduardo carried forward his work to several other smaller, independent projects that he composed for, including TV shows, video games and documentaries. He is currently based in Los Angeles and also lists himself as a film producer.
He dated Eva Longoria from 2011-12, and in 2018, he began a relationship with Argentinian actress Eva De Dominici, 29. In 2019, they welcomed their first child together, a son named Cairo, now five years old.
