The charming and talented actor Ryan Gosling is closed and laconic in matters related to his personal life. His beloved actress Eva Mendes adheres to the same position. Therefore, journalists still do not know the details of the novel of the two stars. However, the couple managed to hide from the public and more significant events, such as the birth of two daughters and, according to unconfirmed information, even a wedding.
Towards each other
Ryan grew up in the Canadian city of London. From an early age, he wanted to become an actor. He was especially inspired by the images of action heroes so popular in the 80s and 90s. For example, under the impression of Rambo performed by Sylvester Stallone, young Gosling once brought a set of knives to school. During recess, he decided to have fun, showing his classmates various tricks with melee weapons and inviting them to act as a target. Fortunately, his dangerous games were stopped before anyone was hurt.
The artistic Ryan made his screen debut at the age of 13, fulfilling his long-held dream. Soon he was invited to the famous television program "The Mickey Mouse Club", where the young Gosling starred side by side with other future stars - Britney Spears, Justin Timberlake, Christina Aguilera. After the closure of the popular show, he returned from the United States to his native Canada and began an acting career.
A real star breakthrough for Ryan was his role in the romantic drama "The Notebook" (2004). This film also brought him his first serious relationship: on-screen love with partner Rachel McAdams continued in real life. True, according to the director of the picture, at first the actors were hostile to each other, constantly arranging clashes and clarification of relations on the set. However, soon mutual hostility was replaced by no less passionate love. Gosling and McAdams' romance lasted three years, after which the actors, absorbed in their own careers, decided to leave.
Eve's life before meeting Ryan was no less intense. She was born into a family of immigrants from Cuba who moved to the United States shortly before her birth. Mendes was brought up in severity, although now the actress is even grateful to her parents for saving her from many of the mistakes of her youth. Despite her bright appearance, the girl always adhered to a rare constancy in love. From 2002 to 2011, she was in a relationship with Peruvian director George Augusto. However, their life together was no less secret than the current relationship with Gosling. After parting with her long-term lover, Mendes, according to rumors, did not meet with actor Jason Sudeikis for long, until fate brought her to Ryan.
Secret romance
The fateful meeting of the two actors took place on the set of the drama "The Place Beyond the Pines", where Ryan and Eve got the roles of spouses with a little son growing up. They spoke very warmly about the collaboration, and soon the paparazzi caught the couple on a date at Disneyland. In the pictures, the actors held hands, looked happy and in love. However, none of them answered direct questions about the novel. On the contrary, Mendes and Gosling assured curious journalists that they were not ready for marriage or a serious relationship. In addition, at social events, they also preferred to appear separately, making an exception only for the premiere of "Places Beneath the Pines", where they posed together on the red carpet, surrounded by other film actors.
The more unexpected was the news that appeared in the press in July 2014. A source from the couple's entourage said that Eva was in late pregnancy. Quite naturally, the actors themselves left this information without comment. The fans learned that Mendes and Gosling actually became parents almost a month after the birth of their eldest daughter, namely in October, while the joyful event took place on September 12. The girl was named with the beautiful name Esmeralda Amada. Later, Eva explained that the baby received the first name in honor of the main character of the famous novel Hugo, and the second - in honor of her grandmother. And Amada translated from Spanish means "beloved."
Friendly family
The birth of a daughter together did not make the actors' relationship more open and public. But the star couple did not miss the opportunity to work together again when Ryan decided to shoot his directorial debut - the film "How to Catch a Monster". He entrusted his beloved with the role of a cabaret dancer named Kat. This work Mendes called "a magical experience." The film premiered at the Cannes Film Festival.
The pair of actors again managed to surprise the audience when in April 2016 the news of the birth of their second daughter Amada Lee appeared. Like last time, there have been no official reports of Eve's pregnancy. By the way, the name of the youngest girl is similar to that of her older sister. Mendes admitted that they went through many options, but each time they returned to Amada. However, in the traditions of the Latin American culture to which the actress belongs, they do not see anything criminal in the repetition of names in children. Therefore, the happy parents decided to ignore the prejudices and named their daughter whatever they liked.
Shortly after the birth of Amada, the tabloids reported about the secret wedding of two celebrities, which took place in the backyard of their family mansion. The ceremony was allegedly held in secrecy in the presence of 30 closest people from the environment of the newlyweds. Moreover, the guests until the last moment did not know about the upcoming wedding and were invited to a house party. The actors denied the sensational information, however, knowing their desire for privacy, not everyone is inclined to believe these statements.
