Ryan Gosling Dreamed Of Starting A Family With Eva Mendes On Set: "I Didn't Really Want It To Be Pretend Anymore"
Eva Mendes' first pregnancy was a surprise, but Ryan Gosling says becoming a father was the best thing that could have ever happened to him.
Born on November 12, 1980, in London, Ontario, Canada, heartthrob Ryan Gosling was in the entertainment industry from a young age. He started out on Disney Channel's Mickey Mouse Club alongside future pop icons like Britney Spears, Christina Aguilera, and Justin Timberlake. He later transitioned into more serious roles, demonstrating his versatility and establishing himself as one of the finest actors of his generation. His most popular movies include The Notebook, Drive, and La La Land. But there's one movie in particular that played an important role in his personal life. He starred in The Place Beyond the Pines in 2011, and shortly after he started dating his costar Eva Mendes. In a recent interview with GQ, Gosling opens up about how this romance changed his life forever and gave him the greatest gift of all: fatherhood.
