Eva Mendes is allegedly plotting her Hollywood comeback after years of not being able to act because she was busy tending to her husband, Ryan Gosling, and their kids.
But now, Mendes is finally ready to hit the big screen. The only problem is Gosling doesn’t support his wife’s plans 100 percent.
According to National Enquirer, the Barbie actor is worried that his marriage would be destroyed if Mendes returns to acting because this means that she would be too busy to spend time with him.
A source claimed that Cameron Diaz was the one who convinced Mendes to return to her craft. And the latter was so inspired because Diaz has not acted in years but she’s still ready to return to the big screen.
“Cameron told Eva it’s time for the two of them to shine on the screen once again and she’s really been encouraging. But Ryan wishes Cam had stayed out of it – because they grew closer than ever during Eva’s self-imposed hiatus,” the source said.
The insider claimed that Mendes and Gosling’s marriage has been thriving because they get to spend quality time with each other. And they’re always round for their daughters.
“They managed to hold their relationship together and at one point even talked about ditching Hollywood altogether and moving to Ryan’s native Canada. She didn’t think leaving her acting career was a permanent thing, but Ryan seemed happy with the status quo of her staying home to raise their children while he became one of the busiest actors in the business,” the source said.
As such, Gosling is allegedly begging Mendes to not try her luck in acting again. After all, he’s earning more than enough to support their family and give them a good life.
The actor is also insisting that if Mendes is committed to making their marriage work, she wouldn’t consider accepting an acting gig.
However, one should take the tabloid’s claims with a grain of salt. The tabloid seemingly made Gosling look like a selfish husband who cannot support Mendes on what she wants to do. But this isn’t necessarily the case.
In fact, Mendes has not expressed any desire to return to acting anytime soon. But if she does, it’s highly likely for Gosling to support her and root for her.
