“I wasn’t thinking about kids before I met her, but after I met Eva, I realized that I just didn’t want to have kids without her,” he told the outlet.
Gosling and Mendes, 49, started dating in 2011 after starring in the crime drama “The Place Beyond The Pines” together. His feelings toward wanting fatherhood for himself originated from scenes in which their characters were “pretending to be a family,” he said.

Shortly after filming was finished, the two were caught getting intimate at Disneyland and exchanging a passionate kiss in Paris, showing that their on-screen romance had carried over to their daily lives.
Mendes and Gosling rang in 2012 together at Manhattan’s Bowery Hotel, sharing a New Year’s kiss. They saw a movie at an AMC theater in Manhattan the following day to ring in the new year with Gosling’s mother, Donna.
In 2014, Gosling and Mendes reunited on the set of Lost River, a film that Gosling wrote, directed, and starred in. The bond between a single mother and her sons, who are attempting to survive in the midst of an economic crisis, is the main subject of the movie, which is somewhat autobiographical for Gosling.
The encounter, in Gosling’s opinion, increased their mutual regard for one another. According to Ryan Gosling, “They know what is at stake for you personally, and all the work that’s gone into getting there.” Gosling said this to Sunday Style.
Mendes and Gosling both became first-time parents with the birth of their daughter Esmeralda Amada Gosling, who was born on September 12, 2014. Mendes gave birth to their second daughter on April 29, 2016, after keeping her pregnancy a secret until its final months. Amada Lee Gosling, who was born in Santa Monica, California, was given Mendes’ grandmother’s name.
