Ryan Gosling and Blake Lively first sparked relationship rumors in October 2010. Per E! News, the two were spotted hanging out together at Gibson Girl Ice Cream Parlor at Disneyland, shortly before it was announced that Lively had broken up with her longtime boyfriend Penn Badgley. While Lively’s rep quickly denied the dating rumors, she and Gosling were again seen together during the after-party of his film “Blue Valentine” in New York that December. An eyewitness told the outlet that the two looked suspiciously cozy. “They weren’t obviously all over each other, but it seemed like they were together,” the source claimed. “There were times when they would be sitting down and he would kind of lay his hand on her knee. They were smiling, laughing, they looked happy!”

Sources close to the pair confirmed that the two were casually dating. “They’ve been out a few times and are definitely into each other, but I don’t think it’s super serious or anything right now,” a friend of Gosling told E!. “But I could see it becoming more.” Gosling — who previously dated his “The Notebook” co-star Rachel McAdams — was reportedly seeing other girls at the same time he was dating Lively. But when asked about the rumors, the “Drive” actor played it coy and only said of Lively (via People), “She’s an incredible actress. She’s a good friend.” Things ultimately fizzled out between the pair and the two called things off before 2011.
