Ryan Gosling and Eva Mendes: Hollywood's secret power couple
If only they had publicly disclosed their relationship, they would be one of Hollywood's hottest couples, another Brangelina. Meanwhile, the actor and actress have avoided inviting the media into their private lives for years.
The relationship between Ryan Gosling and Eva Mendes is a rarity: even though they could make a fortune and become even more popular as a Hollywood it-couple, they prefer to keep their love in the shadows. For example, a few months ago, although Mendes accompanied Gosling backstage at the Oscars, she did not walk the red carpet with him.
The actor posed for photos with his mum, stepdad, and sister. Meanwhile, the actress supported him in the dressing room, posting a picture of his costume. Ryan rarely talks publicly about his well-known wife. He made an exception, for instance, when he accepted the Golden Globe for "La La Land."
- I just would like to try to thank one person properly and say that while I was singing and dancing and playing piano and having one of the best experiences I’ve ever had on a film, my lady was raising our daughter and pregnant with our second - the star said at the time.
Eva Mendes and Ryan Gosling together in the stands in Paris
It was, therefore, a real treat for photojournalists to see the famous couple in the stands at Bercy Stadium during the Olympic Games in Paris, cheering on the gymnasts. They tried to hide from the cameras. Mendes wore large glasses, and Gosling added a cap. Their daughters accompanied the couple: nine-year-old Esmeralda and eight-year-old Amanda.
Eva Mendes and Ryan Gosling have never even confirmed that they got married. Once, the actress used the word "husband" in an interview, but she also has a tattoo on her wrist, "de Gosling," suggesting she is his wife and not his partner. It is commonly believed that they met in 2011 on the film "The Place Beyond the Pines," but Eva wrote on Instagram some time ago, "We did not meet on set. The magic started way before." Where and when? We will probably never know.
Ryan Gosling's career
Ryan Gosling began his entertainment career as a child. In the 90s, he appeared on the popular show Mickey Mouse Club, where he performed alongside future stars like Justin Timberlake and Britney Spears. It was there that he gained his first stage experience, which later proved crucial in his career.
A breakthrough moment in Gosling's career was his appearance in the 2001 thriller "The Believer." In the role of a young neo-Nazi, he showcased his acting skills, gaining critical acclaim. However, true fame came with his role in the 2004 film "The Notebook," where he starred alongside Rachel McAdams. One of his many significant roles is undoubtedly in "Lars and the Real Girl," where he played a very unusual character. Later, offers poured in from everywhere: "Crazy, Stupid, Love," "Drive," the Oscar-nominated "La La Land." Today, Gosling is among the highest-paid actors in Hollywood. His latest films are "The Stuntman" and "Barbie."
Eva Mendes' career
She debuted on the small screen in an episode of "ER," but the real start of her acting career was her performance in "Children of the Corn V: Fields of Terror."
