Eva Longoria: I want a baby, now!

Desperate Housewives star Eva has five months to make a baby

Sunday, 18 May 2008

Desperate to become a mum, it’s all systems go for Eva Longoria.

The actress only has a small window of opportunity to get pregnant due to her Desperate Housewives filming commitments and husband Tony Parker’s busy basketball schedule with the San Antonio Spurs.

Last October, 32-year-old Eva’s boss, Desperate Housewives creator Marc Cherry, put a ban on the newly married star getting pregnant in a bid to prevent interruptions to planned storylines for the hit show.

Now the timing seems perfect for the couple and Eva’s baby plan is apparently already under way. In March, she dismissed rumours that she was already pregnant, blaming her suspect baby bulge on tight- fitting jeans.

But sources who recently witnessed her tucking into a hearty lunch with Tony at a Los Angeles restaurant say that the tiny star was definitely ‘eating for two’.

Eva’s keeping quiet for the moment – which could be a ploy to keep her Desperate Housewives bosses on side until she makes a big announcement. Either way, in Eva’s eyes there’s no time to lose.
