As you can see in this photo, Mel Gibson is still with his much-younger girlfriend, Rosalind Ross. Rosalind, 24, and Mel, 60, started dating in early 2015. By the summer of 2015, they were traveling together and spending all of their time together. He filmed a movie in Australia for months, and she was by his side. When he was invited to present at the Golden Globes, she was at his side too. They didn’t walk the red carpet, but they were spotted after the Globes, heading to some afterparties (which is where the above photo was taken). As it turns out, not walking the carpet together might have been Rosalind’s call. Because why would you want photos of yourself standing next to anti-Semitic beef jerky on the internet for all of eternity? No, as it turns out, Rosalind doesn’t care for all of the “negative attention” that comes with dating Mad Mel. Poor sausage.

Rosalind Ross, the 24-year-old girlfriend of Mel Gibson, finds the attention that comes with dating the Australian actor ‘unpleasant’. The former vaulting champ was first spotted with Gibson, 60, in July and has since become a regular fixture at his side – including at Sunday night’s Golden Globes.

However, close friend and former vaulting partner Devon Maitozo says the ‘private’ Ross has found dealing with the ‘negative attention’ that has accompanied her new relationship difficult and now just wants to ‘get on with her life’.

Speaking exclusively to Daily Mail Online, Maitozo, 33, added: ‘There’s been a lot of very not very nice media that’s been written about her. Sifting through it has not been very pleasant at all. Sensationalizing her because of her relationships is not what she’s looking for. She would probably enjoy it if it was about her and her career instead of her being the girlfriend of a celebrity but it’s not and so she’d like to keep her life private. She’s just a young girl and wants to get on with her life without all the attention.’

Ross and Gibson are believed to have met last spring when she applied for a job at his production company Icon. According to Radar Online, love then blossomed during a visit to the 60-year-old’s 500-acre Costa Rica ranch.

‘They started their romantic getaway in Costa Rica, hiding out in Playa Barrigona, where he owns a 500-acre tropical sanctuary in the middle of the jungle, before heading to Panama. It’s clear the two of them are really happy together,’ a source told the website. Since then, the two have been virtually inseparable, with Ross joining the actor on vacation in Sydney last August and visiting him on the set of Hacksaw Ridge – a World War II drama – in November.

Eh. I do think she’s very young, too young to deal with the drama that comes with dating someone like Mel Gibson. Of course, women closer to his age don’t want to have anything to do with him. And of course Rosalind wouldn’t mind if the attention was on her career. She also wouldn’t mind if the attention about her relationship was positive, and she was being spun as some Amal Clooney-esque wonder woman who just happened to catch the eye of a famous actor. Instead, most people have written off Mel and Rosalind finds herself attached to a sinking ship. Girl, just don’t marry him. Or get pregnant. If you want to have fun and go on vacation with him, sure, get yours. But don’t make any radical life changes for him!
