Pregnant Eva Mendes and Ryan Gosling Breakup Rumors: Baby Adoption Hoax Fools Millions [UPDATE]

Rumors are once again flying that Eva Mendes could be pregnant, after claims that she and Ryan Gosling are headed towards a breakup. Turns out it was all just a Facebook hoax that incorrectly reported Ryan had adopted-and subsequently loss-a 9-month-old baby.

Sorry Facebook fans, Ryan Gosling has never been a father, nor has he declared his intentions to be so in the future. The report you may have seen on the popular social media site was totally false.

On Father's day, a site that declared to be Ryan Gosling's official page posted a photo of the heartthrob holding a baby, along with the following text, which claimed that Gosling was a father (but just for a year):

"This father's day, I've decided to tell the story of how I became a father. This little guy was only 9 months old when I became his dad. His mom and I were great friends before she passed away from cancer. I promised her, I'd always look after him...He was my everything. 1 year later after the adoption, his biological father wanted him. Of course, I put up a fight, but he won. That 1 year of being his father taught me how to love unconditionally..."

The report was eventually declared a hoax, but only after one million Facebook users "liked" the post. Not only was the post totally fake, but it also appeared to be rooted in a major scam to dupe people out of money.

The post linked to a t-shirt purchase page, claiming that the proceeds from the sale would go to charity. The problem?

Turns out the charity doesn't even exist.

Of course, that's not the only bad news for Ryan and Eva. Numerous tabloid reports have suggested that Ryan and Eva are going to breakup. In fact, one source told OK! that it's Ryan's inability to commit which has caused serious problems:

"For the past 18 months, they've been talking about taking the next step, to the point that on every vacation, Eva's been convinced he would be popping the question. The trip to Iceland in September was the last straw. She pretty much gave him an ultimatum, but he balked and she stormed out and flew back to the States without him."
