Ryan Gosling has made a rare remark about his love life with his wife, Eva Mendes.
The Oscar nominee and the former actress are usually private about their relationship, but Gosling recently switched things up when he brought her on stage as part of a surprise for her 52nd birthday.
Eva Mendes previously shared that she never wanted to have kids, but when she met Ryan Gosling, she had to reconsider her stance as she found herself wanting to have his children.
Ryan Gosling Makes Rare Confession About His Romance With Eva Mendes
Ryan Gosling gave a rare insight into his bedroom escapades with partner Eva Mendes during Wednesday’s episode of Travis and Jason Kelce’s “New Heights” podcast.
The “Barbie” star was asked if he makes love to the soundtrack from his movies, but he emphatically shared that he doesn’t.
It appears the host wanted to know if he shared something in common with his “Blade Runner 2049” co-star Harrison Ford, who confirmed to Jimmy Kimmel earlier this month that he had “of course” done this before.
“That’s an easy, easy no,” Gosling said, before Jason admitted he had asked a “dumb question,” while Travis couldn’t stop laughing.
The Golden Globe winner then said of his friend, “Of course, Harrison has [done that]. I always say, ‘Never meet your heroes unless they’re Harrison Ford.’ He’s as cool as you want him to be.”
Gosling then described a time on set when Ford “housed half a bottle of Advil as a joke,” adding that the 83-year-old is “not like us. He’s that guy. … He’s the real deal.”
The Actor Surprised Eva Mendes For Her Birthday
Gosling and Mendes have been together for more than a decade now, as they began dating in 2011 while filming “The Place Beyond the Pines.”
The couple has remained tight-lipped about their relationship and are rarely seen together since they got together. However, Gosling took it upon himself to break tradition to celebrate her 52nd birthday in a special way.
Earlier this month, the 45-year-old actor had Mendes brought out while filming “The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon” so that the audience could sing her a happy birthday song, per CNN.
Gosling was on the show to promote his new film “Project Hail Mary,” where he plays the role of a school teacher who lost his memory and woke up on a spaceship.
Eva Mendes Had ‘No Idea’ About The Surprise From Ryan Gosling
As a sweet tribute to the movie and his wife, Gosling had the audience filled with teachers and revealed that Mendes “loves teachers,” adding that she flaunts her Hall Monitor sash in their home.
As the actress walked up onto the stage, where she gave an impromptu speech, Fallon quipped that she had “no idea” that the surprise was going to happen.
“We owe so much to you guys,” Mendes told the audience of teachers, adding, “and you’re so underpaid!” prompting laughter from them.
The Actress Quit Her Career To Look After Their Daughters
The couple now shares two daughters, Esmeralda and Amada, but Mendes told Australian Nova 96.9 in a 2019 interview that she didn’t want children until she met Gosling.
“I never wanted babies before until I fell in love with Ryan, and it kind of worked out to where I was 40 and having my first baby,” she said at the time, per Page Six.
She also shared that she was always focused on her career, but when the “La La Land” actor later came into the picture, everything fell into place organically.
“I think I was 42 for the second [kid], so it worked out in that way that I had a career and then I changed my focus to my family,” she said.
Mendes has since slammed the brakes on her Hollywood career to raise their daughters.
Ryan Gosling Shares Update On His Desire To Play Ghost Rider
Meanwhile, Gosling is seemingly doubling down on his desire to play Ghost Rider in the Marvel Cinematic Universe.
The actor, who has previously said that he wants to be the new Ghost Rider, appeared on the “Happy Sad Confused” podcast to promote “Project Hail Mary,” and was asked by Josh Horowitz what the situation was with the MCU.
“We’ll keep hope alive”, he said. “Some discussions have been had. It’s a complicated situation.”
