Ryan Gosling confides for a rare time about his role as a father

Ryan Gosling is one of the big names in Hollywood, but he made it clear that his number one role is that of a father, not a big actor.

The 48-year-old actor keeps his personal life VERY private, but he opened up a bit about being a dad and how he deals with that role and being a movie star.

Ryan Gosling and his partner Eva Mendes (48) have two daughters, Esmeralda Amada (seven) and Amada Lee (six). Both girls need parental care, which remains a priority for the couple.

By the way, this is one of the reasons why the Canadian star opted for her latest role in The Gray Man on Netflix, when filming allowed for a good work-life balance.

“I’m a father first and part of the reason I chose the movie [The Gray Man] was this opportunity for us to go to these interesting places and be there with my kids!” he said

Funny thing: Eva contacted her partner during an explosion scene near the hotel where the whole family was meeting to ask him when the explosions were going to stop since one of the girls had a piano lesson via ZOOM.
