Top Women Ryan Gosling Has Dated

Ryan Gosling keeps his private life low key, so the confirmed details come from a handful of public appearances, interviews, and well documented timelines. Over the years he has been linked to a few costars and a few rumored flings, with only a short list ever moving into clearly acknowledged relationships.

Here are the most talked about women connected to him, starting with the long term partner fans know today and moving through earlier confirmed relationships and widely reported rumored links that surfaced around specific projects and sightings.

Eva Mendes

Ryan Gosling and Eva Mendes met while filming ‘The Place Beyond the Pines’ in 2011 and began seeing each other soon after the shoot. They stepped out together during the film’s promotion and were photographed on low key outings rather than frequent red carpets, which matched how carefully they handled attention around their relationship. They welcomed their first daughter Esmeralda in 2014 and their second daughter Amada in 2016, and they have continued to maintain privacy around their family life.

Both have occasionally shared brief comments that confirm the timeline without opening the door to day to day details. She has posted nods to their film on anniversaries and he has credited her with reshaping his view of family during press conversations tied to work like ‘La La Land’ and ‘Barbie’. They rarely appear together at public events and have avoided sharing images of their children, keeping the focus on milestones linked to projects rather than personal moments.

Rachel McAdams

He reconnected with Rachel McAdams after filming ‘The Notebook’ and the two dated from 2005 to 2007, with a short lived reunion in 2008. They appeared together at award shows and industry events during that window and were photographed on everyday outings around Los Angeles and Toronto, which helped anchor the public timeline of their time together after the film’s release.

Their relationship unfolded as both worked on separate projects that followed ‘The Notebook’, which meant long stretches where appearances were limited to specific cities or festivals. The pair did not collaborate on additional features during the relationship, so most public touchpoints came from press archives, event guest lists, and trade coverage tied to releases that placed them on the same circuit at the same time.

Sandra Bullock

Ryan Gosling and Sandra Bullock met while making ‘Murder by Numbers’ and dated from 2002 to 2003. The connection became public through press events tied to the film and through photographs from Los Angeles and Austin, which is where she has spent significant time outside of shoots. The relationship aligned with the movie’s release cycle, giving a clear start point on set and a public presence during promotion.

After the film moved out of theaters, sightings tapered off, and outlets later summarized the relationship in profiles that tracked his early 2000s work. The timeline remains one of the most consistently reported chapters in his dating history, supported by interviews from that period that referenced meeting on the production and spending time together while juggling early career schedules.

Olivia Wilde

In 2011 he was linked to Olivia Wilde after reports placed them at dinner in Los Angeles and at an aquarium outing in the Cincinnati area while he worked on ‘The Ides of March’. Coverage at the time described friendly evenings out during a period when both were between major public appearances and moving between cities for film schedules, which helped fuel speculation.

Neither party confirmed a relationship and the reports did not extend beyond a brief cluster of sightings. The mentions show up in year end roundups of rumored pairings and in profiles that revisit their 2011 schedules, placing the links squarely in the window around that political drama’s production and press.

Kat Dennings

Rumors connected Ryan Gosling and Kat Dennings in 2009 after multiple casual sightings, including a heavily circulated Disneyland visit and low key meals in Los Angeles. The timeframe overlaps with a stretch when both were based in Southern California and working on projects that kept them in town rather than on location.

No formal confirmation followed and the mentions remain categorized as rumored. The reports recur in timeline pieces that list brief connections based on public outings rather than statements, and they are typically grouped with other short entries that note a few specific dates and places without additional detail.

Casey LaBow

In 2010 he was linked to Casey LaBow after photos and items placed them together in Los Angeles and New York. The notes appeared in entertainment columns that tracked celebrity movements week to week, citing shared meals and group hangouts rather than official events or premieres.

There was no on screen project tying them together, so the linkage comes from those informal sightings rather than production schedules. The mentions fade after a short period, and later retrospectives continue to label the connection as a brief rumored chapter anchored by a handful of outings.

Famke Janssen

Around 2004 some outlets mentioned Ryan Gosling and Famke Janssen in the same context after they were seen at New York spots that often attracted actors between shoots. The timing coincided with his moves between projects following ‘The Notebook’ and with her own work that placed her on the East Coast, which made overlapping appearances plausible during that year.

As with several items in his early timeline, neither offered a confirming comment and the reports did not track beyond summary lists. The entry usually appears in roundups that separate confirmed relationships from rumor logs and it remains in the latter category anchored to that single year.

Jaime Murray

In late 2009 he was rumored to have connected with Jaime Murray after party reports and brief notes in gossip columns mentioned them at the same gatherings. The mentions align with holiday season industry events in Los Angeles, where many short term rumors arise from group settings and overlapping circles.

No follow up photos or statements added weight to the story after the initial notes. As a result, this item remains a footnote in dating history timelines, typically listed among unconfirmed links that surfaced during a stretch of active projects and frequent event appearances.
