Eva Mendes is still in crazy, stupid, love with her Ryan Gosling tattoo.
Four years after she debuted the ink, the Ghost Rider actress shared a sweet detail about her first and only tattooâa tribute to the Crazy, Stupid, Love actorâwhich features the words âde Goslingâ on the inside of her wrist.
After Mendesâwho has been in a relationship with Gosling since they met on 2011âs The Place Beyond the Pinesâposted black-and-white shots from a photoshoot, including one that showed her tattoo, on Instagram Aug. 28, a fan commented, âThe tattoo, I canât!â
âItâs the only one I have,â Mendes replied, âthe only one Iâve ever wanted.â
The 52-year-oldâmom to Esmeralda, 11, and Amada, 10, with Goslingâadded a heart-eyed emoji to her comment.
Mendes first publicly unveiled her tattoo in 2022, with her inkâwhich translates to âof Goslingâ in several languagesâmaking appearances in multiple posts on her Instagram that summer and fall.
Yet, the Hitch actress hinted that she got the tattoo much earlier than people may believe.
Indeed, after she showed off her inked Gosling tribute once again a few months later, a makeup artistâwhom she previously worked withâasked if the ink was âreal,â to which Mendes replied, âummmâŚit's old. You've seen it many times. I love you."
As for the tattooâs meaning? While the words on her wrist sparked speculation that she and Gosling had possibly tied the knot, Mendes has never officially confirmed her and Goslingâs marital status.
But that didnât stop the Training Day actress from casually referring to Gosling as her âhusbandâ during a TV interview in November 2022.
"I'm loving it here," she said when asked about her time Down Under on Today Australia at the time. "My husband Ryan is here and our children are here, we're having the best time."
And while the couple keeps their relationship rather private, Mendes did offer insight into the secret to her and Goslingâs long-lasting romance.
"Yeah, we do have date nights regularly," she told People in an interview published April 17, sharing that the pairâs âtogether-timeâ includes of âall the unmentionables.â
"I don't know what else to say,â she added. âWe like movies and we like going to the movies so we try to keep that alive."
