Ryan Gosling and Eva Mendes roasted for 'ridiculous' look at indoor Olympic event

PARIS, FRANCE: Ryan Gosling and Eva Mendes recently made a rare public appearance with their children at the 2024 Paris Olympics, but what was meant to be a stylish family outing soon ignited a wave of online criticism.  

The Hollywood couple, known for their penchant for privacy, drew significant attention with their family’s chic ensemble and accessories. However, their appearance quickly became a hot topic on social media, sparking a mix of reactions from netizens, with some reportedly mocking the couple for wearing sunglasses at an indoor event

On August 4, the couple was seen enjoying the dressage individual Grand Prix freestyle at the picturesque Chateau de Versailles. 

Gosling sported a red plaid shirt, a white Paris 2024 cap, and dark sunglasses, while Mendes complemented his casual style with a stylish black outfit, accessorized with a sun hat and large white-bordered sunglasses.

Germany’s Jessica von Bredow-Werndl took first place in the event, with her teammate Isabell Werth in second and Britain’s Charlotte Fry winning bronze.

Later, they attended the women’s uneven bars final at Bercy Stadium with their daughters, Esmeralda and Amada—one in a yellow dress and the other in a white sweater. At the gymnastics final, Team USA’s Suni Lee won the bronze medal, China’s Qiu Qiyuan earned silver, and Algeria’s Kaylia Nemour claimed the gold.

At the stadium, Gosling and Mendes wore the same sunglasses and outfits as at the Chateau de Versailles, though Ryan Gosling replaced his white cap with a green Olympic hat, and Mendes chose not to wear any headgear.

According to E! News, the couple’s last public appearance together was in 2015, when they appeared onstage for a Q&A about the film 'Lost River' at the SXSW festival in Austin, Texas. 

Their most recent joint red carpet appearance before that was at the premiere of The Place Beyond the Pines three years earlier. The two met and fell in love on the set of the film and decided to start a family together.
