How Eva Mendes and Ryan Gosling Are Surviving Quarantine with Their Kids
As the world continues to navigate through the challenges of the coronavirus pandemic, many celebrities, like Eva Mendes and Ryan Gosling, are finding themselves practicing social distancing just like the rest of us. With their daughters, Esmeralda, 5, and Amada, 3, stuck at home, we were curious about how this power couple manages to keep their little ones entertained and engaged. A source close to the family exclusively shared with Closer Weekly that it all comes down to one key strategy: keeping the kids busy and boredom-free.
“That’s their No. 1 goal,” the insider explained on Thursday, April 2. The source went on to elaborate that both Ryan, the beloved Notebook actor, and Eva, his longtime partner, are taking full advantage of the extra time they have at home with their daughters. These days, family time is everything for them.
Family Time Takes Center Stage
“Ryan and Eva are really enjoying this unexpected pause from their busy lives,” the source continued. “They’ve shifted their focus entirely to family time, cherishing every moment they spend with Esmeralda and Amada.”

A Rare Glimpse into Family Life
Eva Mendes, known for her role in Hitch, recently gave fans a rare peek into her day-to-day life while quarantining with her adorable children. On March 24, Eva shared a super rare video of her youngest child showcasing her piano-playing skills on Instagram. The video not only highlighted the family's efforts to keep things light and fun but also offered a heartwarming glimpse into their lives.
In the caption, Eva wrote, “Trying to keep things light at home with my two little ones. Nothing like some old Cuban music to bring joy. And yes, that’s my 3-year-old on the piano.” Although Amada wasn’t visible on screen, her musical talent was evident in the background. This is a rare moment for Eva and Ryan, who generally prefer to keep their daughters out of the public eye, allowing them to grow up privately.
Eva has expressed how much she loves this time at home, especially since her daughters inspire her creativity. At an event in February, the brunette beauty discussed the powerful women in her life who inspire her. “Besides my mom, there’s my two sisters, Ryan’s sister, his mom. We’re all females,” she said. “There’s all girls in my family. I can go to everyone for inspiration because they’re all amazing.”
Eva even revealed the most special part of watching her daughters grow up. “My two little girls are already these two little self-empowered little women. I’m like, ‘Oh my gosh, I need to get out of the way and let you guys lead,’” she gushed. “I take great inspiration from them.”
