Eva Mendes and Ryan Gosling Are Raising Their Kids to Defy ‘Gender-Specific’ Stereotypes

Eva Mendes and Ryan Gosling are raising their kids to defy ‘Gender-Specific’ stereotypes at home with their two daughters.

Eva Mendes and Ryan Gosling don’t maintain gender-specific roles while at home with their two girls. The couple is raising 7-year-old daughter Esmeralda and 6-year-old Amanda.

The couple considers raising them a ‘team effort’ when it comes to cooking, cleaning, and taking care of the house.

She explained,

“I’m not an amazing cook — I leave that to Ryan,”. “Hopefully it’s showing my girls that there are no gender-specific roles that one must take on and that we are partners in this and that we’re all partners in this, not just Ryan and I, but our children as well.”

The costars of ‘Place Beyond the pines‘ are living in harmony in their Canadian house. Mendes said,

“If they see him and I switching off doing certain things that, again, aren’t specific to stereotypical gender things, I think that just creates balance,”

The 48-year-old star did not want the child in the first place when she met the ‘Notebook’ star in 2011. However, their feelings about their relationship ultimately changed.

In 2019, she told women’s health that,

“Motherhood was the furthest thing from my mind. Then Ryan Gosling happened. I mean, falling in love with him. Then it made sense for me.”

On Monday, Eva Mendes turned on Instagram to inform her fans that her mother is ill.

During her appearance on Fridays, the actress Eva Mendes cried. Hoda Kotb then wished Mendes’ mother, Eva Perez Suarez, a Happy Mother’s Day.

Thank you for your kind, thoughtful words. Because my mother isn’t doing well, what you said truly struck a chord with me, and I appreciate it.

“I know that you’re a survivor in every sense of the word. And I appreciate it.” No matter how much life knocks her down, she gets back up again and fights for what she believes in.

She’s able to turn negativity into positivity, and she inspires me to make each day my best one yet.

Eva’s thoughts about children before she met Ryan

Mendes has previously stated that she had no desire to have children until falling in love with Gosling, 41, in her late 30s. In April 2019, she told Women’s Health that having children was the “furthest thing” from her thoughts.

Since becoming a mother in 2014, she has been on an acting rest to invest more time and energy with daughters Esmeralda and Amanda.

After returning back to work, Mendes revealed to ‘The view’ co-hosts that she is avoiding sexuality and violence in future projects. She is interested in nice and clean films and calls Disney the perfect match.

“Before kids, I kind of was up for anything — I mean, if it was a fun project. Now I have such a short list of what I will do.”

Well, she is in the process of good parenting for her two daughters with her loving partner Ryan. And we wish them all the best for their exciting journey of parenthood. May they be an inspiration to all the new parents out there.
