Sarah texted me last night. “Oh the Gosling meltdown is delicious.”
The other reaction was pure denial. Like, what’s it going to take to get them to believe? At this point, probably footage of the baby crowning.
Yesterday it was OK! breaking the story, STAR following, then Access Hollywood, then US Weekly. Finally, PEOPLE, late last night, had their sources confirm that Eva Mendes is indeed pregnant for Ryan Gosling.
Then Ellen DeGeneres tweeted her well wishes:
Congrats to @RyanGosling and @EvaMendes! That's going to be the most beautiful, bilingual, part-superhero, well-dressed, romantic baby ever.

It’s done. The only question is how far along and when. Initially OK! reported 7 months. None of the more reliable outlets however are getting that specific. I’ve heard 6 and I’ve heard just past the first trimester. The timing is basically the only riddle left here. He always wanted, and she didn’t, and now she is.
