Sandra is 16 years older than Ryan, however, that didn't stop them from falling in love. It could have been a heartwarming story about a great couple, but the stars broke up shortly after starting dating. It was not because of disagreements or differences: Ryan Gosling himself revealed the sad reason.
The stars met in 2001 on the set of a movie. Sandra Bullock was the police officer chasing Ryan Gosling, who played a rich young suspect. They hit it off from the beginning and started dating. They later appeared in public as a couple during the film's premiere in Cannes.
The ex-couple didn't care about her 16-year age difference. At the time, Gosling was 21 years old and a complete beginner in the film industry. Bullock, on the other hand, was already a 37-year-old experienced actress.
Sandra and Ryan had great chemistry, but their careers ruined their romance. They separated in 2003 due to their busy schedules. Ryan says: “Showbiz is the bad guy. When both of them are in it, it's too much of a show. It takes all the light, so nothing else can grow.”
Even though the stars didn't make it, Ryan still has some amazing memories of their time together. He believes that those two years they spent as a couple were some of the best times of his life. He recalls his previous relationships with Sandra Bullock and Rachel McAdams: “I had two of the best girlfriends of all time. "I haven't met anyone who can overcome them."
Ryan and Eva have maintained a very low-key relationship over the years. They met on the set of The Place Where It All Ends in 2011, where her on-screen romance ended up leading to an off-screen relationship. Since then, they have become one of Hollywood's longest-lasting couples.
Ryan and Sandra broke up. Now, he couldn't be happier with Eva Mendes. However, things are not so bright for Sandra. Her beloved husband passed away not long ago. In this article, the actress breaks her silence and reveals why she never married “the love of her life.”
