Whether or not she wears sweatpants around the house on occasion, it appears Ryan Gosling is still smitten with Eva Mendes.

Did Eva Mendes & Ryan Gosling Secretly Get Married?

The actress has been catching a bit of criticism since saying women wearing sweatpants was the number one cause of divorce in America, while doing an interview with Extra's A.J. Calloway. However, even though some have taken offense to her comments, she does have at least one person sticking up for her-her beau of three years and the father of her daughter, Esmeralda.

Gosling took to his official Twitter account after the comments began trending, and not only defended his girlfriend by saying she had obviously made a joke, but joking that even if she isn't fond of wearing the comfortable garments for herself, he was.

Ryan Gosling Didn't Coin 'Hey Girl'

"Obviously sweatpants thing was a joke. Wearing them now. That's right, tweeting in sweatpants. Rats! Said too much! You win again Twitter," the actor wrote on his account.

However, though Mendes did state her preference for skirts and dresses in the interview, she likely has a pair or two of sweatpants somewhere, since she has admitted she does work out on occasion in the past.

However, when people comment on her amazing post-baby body (she only gave birth six months ago), the actress admits that working out and eating well aren't the only things that allow her to show off a slim post-baby look on magazine covers.

"You're helped in those situations," she said during the interview with Calloway. "I want women at home to know, you're lit, you're angled, so yes, it was a few months after the baby, but with a lot of help."
