Eva Mendes and Ryan Gosling’s Under-the-Radar Romance, in Pictures

Ryan Gosling and Eva Mendes have been together for over a decade and have a habit of keeping their relationship extremely private. While it’s unclear exactly when these two started dating, the couple was first linked back in September 2011 when they were spotted enjoying a magical date at Disneyland. Since then, Eva and Ryan have shared a handful of sweet moments, starred in a movie together, and welcomed their two kids, daughters Esmeralda and Amada.

After taking some time away from the spotlight, the couple are back with new projects. Mendes recently launched a new kitchen product company called Skura Style. “During the pandemic, I was like a lot of people, cleaning obsessively. I’m not a clean freak by any means but I love having a clean house, and especially a clean kitchen and a clean sink. I feel like it’s part of mental wellness for me,” Mendes told Forbes in June. “I was going through so many sponges and so many cleaning products and I basically found through a friend Skura Style sponges, and I instantly loved it.”

Meanwhile, Gosling is starring alongside Chris Evans, Regé-Jean Page, and Ana de Armas in Netflix’s “The Gray Man,” which debuts in theaters on July 15 before hitting Netflix worldwide on July 22. He’s also currently filming Greta Gerwig’s upcoming “Barbie” film, which premieres in 2023.

Ahead, take a look back at how their romance came to be.
