Ryan Gosling has won a restraining order against a stalker claiming to be his twin.

According to gossip website TMZ, which obtained legal documents from the case, the woman, named Grace Marie Del Villar claimed to be the hunk's "twin flame" and had been relentlessly sending emails and packages to the star.

Ryan - who has two-month-old daughter, Esmeralda Amada, with his partner Eva Mendes - was said to have been particularly unnerved when the female travelled from New York to his Los Angeles home on October 28. During the incident, the obsessed fan reportedly claimed to be "Ryan's twin" when questioned by staff at a security gate, and left a strange doll catalogue for him.

On a separate occasion, Grace Marie allegedly sent 'The Notebook' actor an image of Eva which had been torn from a magazine, to which she attached her contact details.

Aside from bothering the star, she also contacted Ryan's sister, Mandi, sending one message which said: "I am kicking your brother's head."

A court has now ordered the woman to remain at least 100 yards away from the actor, Eva, and his daughter, with Mandi also securing a restraining order against the crazed female.
