According to E! News, the 33-year-old actor, who became a first-time father after girlfriend Eva Mendes gave birth to their daughter Esmeralda Amada September 12, has become addicted to FaceTime while he's been working in Atlanta, and has been staying in constant contact with Mendes and his little girl daily.

Though he had to return to work, Gosling reportedly hates being apart from them, and even snuck in a quick trip to L.A. to reunite with them over the past weekend.

Ryan Gosling Makes His First Public Appearance After Becoming A Father

While he's been away at work again, Mendes has finally made her first appearance in public since giving birth, and has become flattered by the praise over her post-pregnancy body, though she isn't crediting a specific diet routine.

"Eva's flattered that people think she looks good, but she's not taking complete credit for it. She knows genetics plays a big role. She has great genes," a source said.

However, the new mom has made some modifications to her diet, by drinking more water and tea and following a high-protein/low-carb diet, but she is making sure to still take in an extra 300 calories a day while breast-feeding, the same amount she added to her daily diet while still pregnant.

The actress has also been receiving a large amount of support from her own mother while her boyfriend has been away, which has helped her adjust to becoming a new mother even more.

"While Ryan is gone, her mom has been spending a lot of time helping her. His mom comes too, but her mom is the mainstay," the source said.
