Famous actors first worked together on the film «Place Beyond the Pines», - but as it turned out, they met even before filming began. The film’s director, Derek Cianfrance, told Us Weekly: «I asked Ryan who he thought would be a good fit for the role of Romina… We thought a lot about it. He knew Eva a little and said, 'You should meet Eva, she’s amazing; I think she has a lot of what people may not have seen yet, and that would be great.' I said, 'Okay.'» Soon, his future wife confirmed that they had met before filming, telling Oprah Daily in 2019: «We had known each other for a while, so working together was really exciting».
Rumors that there might be something more between them than just a collaboration began to surface when they were spotted together at Disneyland in September 2011. A source told Us Weekly at the time: «They were very playful. Eva was bouncing around like a little girl… She leaned into him and held his hand the whole time». Although on the red carpet at the 2012 Toronto International Film Festival they claimed to be just colleagues, Eva later confessed to Kelly Clarkson that she was feeling something different at that moment. «I was literally telling myself, 'I am not in love with him. I am not in love with him.' We were just trying to be very professional».
Photos from paparazzi showing the couple kissing seemed to confirm their romance, but they kept the details of their relationship private for a long time. In 2017, the «La La Land» star finally opened up to Hello! Canada about Eva. «I know I’m with the person I’m supposed to be with», - he said. «She is Eva Mendes. I don’t need anything else».
Eva and Ryan’s relationship with the press has sometimes been complicated, as they insisted that their children not become public figures without their consent. «I've always had a clear boundary when it comes to my man and my kids», - Eva explained on Instagram in 2020. «Of course, I will talk about them, but with limitations, and I won’t post photos of our everyday life. Since my kids are still little and don’t understand what it means to publish their images, I don’t have their consent. And I won’t post their images until they are old enough to give me consent».
She added, «As for Ryan and me, it just works for us this way—staying private… I will only post memories of things that have already 'come to light' (like photos from movies we’ve been in or something like that). My man and kids are private life. That’s important to me, so thank you for understanding that».
The couple has two charming daughters: Esmeralda, born in 2014, and Amada, born in 2016. The news of their first child’s birth was confirmed by Us Weekly after Eva gave birth on September 12, 2014. A couple of years later, they welcomed their second daughter, naming her after the Spanish word for «beloved». She was born just two weeks after Eva’s brother, Juan Carlos Mendes, lost his battle with cancer. «We had a funeral service for him, and that same week I had a baby. It was very, very intense and, of course, incredibly sad, but at the same time somehow beautiful», - the «Hitch» star told Latina later that year.
Since then, their growing family has only strengthened. Ryan expressed his gratitude to his three «leading ladies» at the 2017 Golden Globes when he won the award for Best Actor in a Musical or Comedy for his work in «La La Land». «While I was singing, dancing, and playing the piano, experiencing one of the best moments of my life on set, my woman was raising our daughter, being pregnant with our second, and trying to help her brother fight cancer», - the actor shared, dedicating his award to Juan. «If she hadn’t taken all that on so I could have that experience, someone else would be here instead of me. So, sweetheart, thank you»
