Eva Mendes And Ryan Gosling Share Rare PDA Moment On Jimmy Fallo

Over the course of their relationship, Ryan Gosling and Eva Mendes have become known as one of Hollywood’s most private couples, only ever making a handful of public appearances together and largely keeping their marriage out of the spotlight.

However, they made a rare exception on Thursday night, when the Oscar nominee surprised his wife with a very special birthday treat.

During an interview with Jimmy Fallon, Ryan pointed out that it was Eva’s birthday, and asked the studio audience if they’d mind “singing happy birthday” to the 2 Fast 2 Furious star, who happened to be backstage in the green room.

After sharing a special message to the teachers in the audience, a marching band then led the rendition of Happy Birthday To You, as the entire studio – including the host and her husband – joined in.

Watch the very sweet moment for yourself below:

Ryan and Eva began dating in 2011, after meeting on the set of their film The Place Beyond The Pines.

At some point, the couple tied the knot, but kept it private from the media, with Eva joking during an Australian radio interview: “I like to keep it all mysterious. I’m a very mysterious woman.”

She later alluded to her marriage to Ryan when she showed off a “de Gosling” tattoo on her wrist, and later referred to her former co-star as her “husband” during an interview in 2022.

The couple share two daughters, 11-year-old Esmeralda Amada and nine-year-old Amada Lee.

More recently, the couple have been a lot more open about their relationship, particularly during the promotion of Barbie in 2023.

Ryan was spotted wearing a sweet tribute to his wife at the film’s premiere, with Eva loudly voicing her support when he was nominated for an Oscar for his work as Ken.
