Fans may not see Eva Mendes and Ryan Gosling make a public appearance together any time soon, but they're still happy to publicly gush about each other every now and then.
The notoriously private couple have been together since meeting on the set of The Place Beyond the Pines in 2011, and have since welcomed two daughters together, Esmeralda Amada, eight, and Amada Lee, seven.
Now, as the Barbie actor continues to both celebrate and embrace his role as Ken, in the billion-dollar-grossing phenomenon, his longtime love is continuing to praise him for it.
Eva took to Instagram this week to celebrate Ryan's release of four new renditions of his "I'm Just Ken" hit from the Greta Gerwig blockbuster, in collaboration with Mark Ronson.
Sharing several clips from Ryan's new music video, she captioned one with: "So grateful to @iammarkronson for getting my man to make more music," adding: "Dead Man's Bones is my favorite band… when I first heard Ryan sing, MY HEART EXPLODED." Ryan previously released one album under rock duo Dead Man's Bones with Zach Shields, in 2009.
Eva then insisted: "More Ryan & Ronson música por favor!" and went on to further gush about Ryan in the comments section under the post.
The Hitch actress spent time replying to several fan comments, and after one fan jokingly requested she not refer to Ryan as "my man," and instead "our man," she said: "You're right! Our Man. It'll never happen again. Merry Christmas! Lots of love!!"

Another fan then endearingly noted: "THIS IS AMAZING!!! And damn, @evamendes your enthusiasm for your man is beautiful and electric. I love it!" prompting Eva to further praise Ryan for his most important role: dad.

She went on: "If he wasn't such an amazing man to me and [an] incredible father to the kids – trust me – I wouldn't be praising him like this!" before concluding with: "Happy Holidays to you. Sending you lotsa love!"
© GettyRyan shared a similar sentiment of Eva's role as a mother during a rare, but expansive interview with GQ in May, where he opened up about how it was meeting her that first made him want to have children.
Of the moments he's not sure about his parenting approach, he said: "I just lean on Eva. She knows what's important, always. She just somehow knows. So if ever I'm in my head about it, I just ask her."
