Ryan Gosling and Eva Mendes Seen Together At Paris Olympics

Barbie actor Ryan Gosling, 43, and his actress/author wife Eva Mendes, 50, were spotted attending the gymnastics women’s uneven bars final at the 2024 Paris Olympics on August 4. While many celebrities have been spotted attending Olympic events, this one is extra special as the notoriously private couple haven’t been photographed together in many years.

Gosling, in a red checked shirt and green cap, and Mendes in large white shades, brought their young daughters, Esmeralda, 9, and Amada, 7, along to the event. Gosling sister, Mandi, was also in attendance.

“It was almost just like a non-verbal agreement [between Ryan and I] that it was like, ‘OK, he’s going to work and I’m going to work, I’m just going to work here [at home],’” Mendes recently told Today show in the U.S.. “I still worked, I just didn’t act because acting takes you on locations, it takes you away.”

Mendes—who is now spruiking a new cleaning product brand called Skura and is the author of a new children’s book Desi, Mami & the Never Ending Worries—met and fell in love with Gosling on the set of the 2012 film The Place Beyond the Pines, a high-octane tale of a motorcycle stunt rider who turns to robbing banks to provide for his former partner and their newborn.

“I have never experienced anything like that,” Mendes said in the same interview. “The way [Ryan] works, his commitment to his craft, how he wants to make everything as best it could be, and that means making his co-stars as best as they could be…But unfortunately, or fortunately, there is only one Ryan. So, I pretty much stopped just acting after that.”

Since The Place Beyond The Pines’ premiere 12 years ago, Gosling and Mendes have only been spotted out together a handful of times. One was a Saturday Night Live after party at Tao restaurant in New York City in 2017.

It’s nice to see the couple making memories with their young family at the Olympics. We’re hoping to see more of them in Paris!
