Eva Mendes Gushes Over Ryan Gosling’s “Dreamboat” Dad Skills!
Looks like Ryan Gosling is not just Kenough—he’s the ultimate dad, too!
Eva Mendes recently opened up about what makes her longtime partner, Ryan Gosling, an absolute pro in the parenting department, and fans are totally swooning. The couple, who share daughters Esmeralda, 9, and Amada, 8, have always been low-key about their relationship, but Mendes couldn’t resist giving credit where credit is due.
Ryan Gosling: Hollywood Icon and Superdad?
In a recent interview, Mendes didn’t hold back when praising the Barbie star’s hands-on approach to fatherhood. While he’s known for stealing scenes on the big screen, at home, Gosling is fully committed to his most important role yet—being a dad.
“He’s just the most incredible father,” Mendes gushed. “Watching him with our daughters is the most beautiful thing.”
The Hitch actress revealed that Gosling isn’t just present—he’s deeply involved in every aspect of their children’s lives. Whether it’s bedtime stories, school drop-offs, or building epic pillow forts, the 43-year-old Canadian heartthrob is giving full-on dad goals.
The Sweetest Love Story in Hollywood
Eva and Ryan first sparked romance rumors in 2011 while working together on The Place Beyond the Pines, and the rest is history. Despite being one of Hollywood’s most beloved couples, they’ve managed to keep their family life out of the spotlight.
But when it comes to her man’s daddy duties? Mendes just had to share.
She even credited Gosling’s upbringing for his natural parenting skills. “Ryan had such a beautiful relationship with his mom and his sister growing up. It really shaped the way he treats people,” she said. “And now, to see him with our girls—it’s beyond beautiful.”
The Secret To Their Parenting Success? Teamwork!
Mendes also revealed that she and Gosling take a true partnership approach to raising their little ones.
“We don’t have nannies,” she shared in a past interview. “It’s just us. And we love it.”
Fans have always admired the couple’s dedication to keeping their family life as normal as possible, despite their A-list status. While Mendes took a step back from acting to focus on motherhood, she’s been Gosling’s biggest cheerleader—especially during his recent Barbie resurgence.
Ken-Energized and Killing It as a Dad!
Speaking of Barbie, Mendes LOVED watching Gosling channel his inner Ken—not just for the abs (hello!), but for the fun energy he brought to the role. The film’s success only proved what she’s known all along: Gosling can do anything.
“If Ryan wants to be Ken, then of course, I support him,” Mendes playfully posted when the movie first dropped. “He’s my Ken, forever.”
And, judging by the way she talks about him as a dad, he’s also a real-life Prince Charming.
Fans Are Obsessed!
As if we needed another reason to love Ryan Gosling, fans are eating up Mendes’ latest comments.
“He’s the perfect man,” one fan commented on social media. “Hot, talented, and an amazing dad? Goals.”
“Where do we sign up for a Ryan Gosling parenting class??” another joked.
Honestly, same.
What’s Next for the Power Couple?
While Gosling continues stacking up career wins (hello, Oscar buzz!), Mendes has hinted at a potential comeback of her own. But one thing’s for sure—their priority will always be family first.
And we wouldn’t want it any other way!
