Eva Mendes was active on Instagram recently, posting photos from a clothing launch with New York & Company. While she looked totally adorable, a fan asked for a little more. According to People, someone wrote, “wouldn’t mind an [appearance] by Ryan on this page.” Mendes decided to reply and explain both kindly and clearly that a Ryan Gosling sighting was not going to happen anytime soon.
The actress admitted she sometimes struggles with social media, but wrote, “As far as Ryan, I’ll only post flash backs of things that are already ‘out there’ (like pics from movies we did or stuff like that). My man and my kids are private. That’s important to me so thanks for getting that. Have a beautiful day. Sending so much love!”
For Mendes, having kids wasn’t even a specific dream until she met Gosling. In an April 2019 interview with Women’s Health, she spoke about her personal journey into motherhood and said, “Ryan Gosling happened.” (If that’s not bumper sticker material, I don’t know what is.) Mendes continued, “I mean, falling in love with him. Then it made sense for me to have…not kids, but his kids. It was very specific to him.”
Of course, every person’s journey is unique, and while some feel comfortable sharing photos of their loved ones online, that has not been the case for Mendes. And we totally respect her decision to keep her family life private.
