00:00 Ryan Gosling graces the cover of Us Weekly, and in our cover story, we take a look at
00:05 why his favorite role is Family Man.
00:08 The actor has been the talk of the town ever since taking on the role of Ken in Barbie,
00:13 which earned him a Best Supporting Actor Oscar nomination.
00:16 A source tells us the movie's success is a "dream come true" for Ryan, and being nominated
00:21 for an Academy Award is obviously a massive honor.
00:25 But at the end of the day, he's just as happy out of the spotlight, enjoying the quiet life
00:29 at home in Santa Barbara, California, with his longtime partner Ava Mendez and their
00:34 two daughters Esmeralda and Amada.
00:37 He and Ava are in total agreement about keeping their relationship private and their little
00:41 girls out of the public eye.
00:43 A source tells us they are trying to keep their daughters' lives as normal as possible
00:47 and don't want them growing up in Hollywood.
00:50 The first source says that it can be difficult for Ava when Ryan is away for long periods.
00:54 The source adds, "Like any couple, they have some challenges to navigate, but they work
00:58 through these things fairly seamlessly."
01:01 But when he's home, he is all in.
01:04 They say that Ryan enjoys taking care of the girls and spoiling Ava, too.
01:07 He devotes almost all his time to his family.
01:10 And Ryan loves being a girl dad, with a source telling us, "He reads to the kids, takes them
01:15 to games, puts them to sleep, cooks their dinners, everything, really."
01:19 They add that it's a "go with the flow" situation, and right now, Ryan and Ava are enjoying the
01:24 best of all worlds.
