In a move that speaks volumes about their commitment to family, Hollywood power couple Ryan Gosling and Eva Mendes have made the decision to relocate away from the glitz and glamour of Los Angeles, opting for a quieter life to shield their daughters from the spotlight.
Sources close to the couple revealed to PEOPLE that the well-being of their daughters is their top priority, with everything else taking a backseat. “For them, the most important job is their girls. Everything else comes second,” stated one insider.
The couple, known for their efforts to maintain privacy despite their celebrity status, decided to move to a more secluded area further north, away from the hustle and bustle of Hollywood. “They didn’t want the girls to grow up around other celebrity kids,” explained the source.
This decision seems to have paid off, with reports suggesting that both of their daughters are thriving in their new environment. “Eva and Ryan love their life. It’s admirable how they’ve been able to create balance and boundaries,” shared another insider. “They care so much about their marriage and just want their girls to live a happy life.”
While Ryan continues to pursue his acting career, Eva has taken a step back from the limelight to focus on their children and her fashion line. Despite Ryan’s ongoing involvement in the industry, Eva has chosen to distance herself from the glamorous events of Hollywood, including her absence from the 2024 Oscars red carpet.
“It’s just not important to her,” revealed an insider. “She knows that it’s part of Ryan’s job but it’s not part of hers at the moment. She’s content doing her thing with her family.”
Their dedication to privacy and family appears to be a source of strength for their relationship, with the couple maintaining a strong bond amidst the pressures of fame. “They’re amazing as a couple and very happy together. There’s so much love,” noted the insider. “It truly seems they are surviving Hollywood as a couple, because of the way they have handled being famous. They try their best to stay out of the spotlight.”
As they navigate parenthood and fame, Ryan Gosling and Eva Mendes continue to inspire with their commitment to family values and their unwavering dedication to creating a balanced and fulfilling life for their daughters.
