Fans hoping to get a chance to see Eva Mendes and Ryan Gosling strolling the red carpet together once Ryan's new movie drops are bound to be in for a big disappointment. Eva said she has no plans to join her husband as he celebrates the July 21 release of Barbie — and honestly, her reasoning makes total sense.

Eva broke the news when she posted a throwback clip of her and Ryan.
The mother of two gave fans a glimpse of the start of her and Ryan's relationship when she shared a short video from the set of The Place Beyond the Pines.
"Magic is real," she began the caption. "We did not meet on set. The magic started way before, but here's a little magic captured on camera. Gracias to the incredible director, Derek Cianfrance."
Fans celebrated the rare post from Eva about her marriage.
The two are notoriously private about their relationship, which is why Eva's followers were quick to comment on her unexpected post. "You could feel the chemistry through the screen," one person wrote.
Another fan used the opportunity to ask Eva if they'd get a chance to see her supporting her man at an upcoming event or red carpet appearances. Sadly, it wasn't the answer they were hoping for.
The fan wrote about personal hopes for Ryan's new film.
"Eva, I want to be honest with you, but I really hope Barbie will get through the awards season just to see you with Ryan," the person wrote. "I know, I'm selfish and probably a dreamer, but I will never stop to dream about it!"
Even though plenty of people agreed (the comment had 126 likes as of Thursday morning), Eva had bad news for her fans.
Eva likes to keep her professional and personal lives separate.
Although she thanked the person for the "cool comment," she revealed that walking the red carpet together isn't something that she and Ryan like to do. "Like these photos I've been posting, I'm only comfortable posting because it's already out there," she explained.
Later, she clarified her response after fans asked for more of an explanation. "By 'not comfortable,' I mean exposing our very private life that we value," she said. "I'm still dying to do another movie with him, though."

The couple clearly likes to stay off the paparazzi's radar.
Although we're personally bummed that we won't be able to catch Eva and Ryan together as the father of two celebrates what is undoubtedly going to become his next big hit, we will continue to hold out hope that he'll end up on the big screen with his wife again someday soon. Until then, we'll always have The Place Beyond the Pines …
