Eva Mendes addresses rumours she’s secretly married Ryan Gosling and speaks about mysterious tattoo

Eva Mendes, 48, addresses rumours she has secretly married her long-time partner Ryan Gosling, 42, and speaks about that mysterious wrist tattoo which sparked the speculation

She sparked rumours she secretly tied the knot with her partner of 11 years, Ryan Gosling, when she shared a photo of her ‘de gosling’ wrist tattoo. 

And Eva Mendes had a cryptic response when she addressed the speculation during a radio interview with the The Kyle and Jackie O Show on Friday. 

‘There’s a rumour that you guys might have secretly tied the knot. Is that true?’ fill-in co-host Brittany Hockley asked the Hitch star, to which she replied ‘But who says we weren’t already?’

‘I do have a tattoo,’ she added. ‘No, it’s not a press on. But I got it years ago. I posted a picture and I’ve gotten a lot of funny questions.’

Eva sent social media into a meltdown on Tuesday when she shared a stunning snap of herself holding her arm up to show off the inking on her inner wrist.

Many believe the body art is an indication that notoriously private Eva has married the hunky 42-year-old star she has been dating since 2011 as in Hispanic culture, married women will often add their husband’s name to their own using ‘de’ which means ‘of’ in English.

This is done in order to separate the two names so if this was the case, the talented actress would go by Eva Mendes de Gosling if she tied the knot the Oscar nominee.

Eva has showed off the tattoo numerous times on social media including back in September as she snapped the body inking in a beautiful field of flowers. 

Back in September 2016, rumors swirled that the power couple had secretly married as a source told Us Weekly at the time that they had quietly tied the knot and explained: ‘Eva and Ryan have always felt like a married couple. They are infatuated with each other.’

A rep for the couple later denied that report and the stars had never confirmed the rumors.

Eva and Ryan have two daughters Esmeralda Amada, eight, and Amada Lee, six.

The couple were friends for a ‘long time’ prior to their romantic relationship.

Eva is currently Down Under with her long-time partner Ryan Gosling, who has been filming The Fall Guy in Sydney. 

The stunner has been busy promoting McHappy Day. 

Although McHappy Day isn’t until Saturday, Eva was out on Friday to drum up publicity and raise awareness.

Eva, who was the virtual McHappy Day Ambassador in 2020, met with families staying at Ronald McDonald House and will visit a local McDonald’s restaurant on McHappy Day.

‘I am incredibly honoured to once again partner with McDonald’s to raise awareness of McHappy Day and support the truly invaluable work of Ronald McDonald House Charities,’ she said in a statement.
