Eva Longoria's baby fears

Desperate Housewives star is worried she'll never have children

Primetime Emmy Awards: Eva Longoria looks infatuated

Eva Longoria and Tony Parker married in July 2007

Eva Longoria has made no secret of the fact that she wants to start a family with husband Tony Parker.

But that dream has yet to become a reality and it’s said to be breaking her heart.

‘Eva was convinced she’d fall pregnant last summer and even told Desperate Housewives creator Marc Cherry that she was trying,’ a friend tells Now.

‘She and Tony are in despair because they’ve been trying for a while now without success.'

Eva, 33, admitted last summer that she was hoping to one day hear the pitter-patter of tiny feet, saying: ‘God will give us a child when He feels the time is right.’

There were rumours she and basketball star Tony, 26, were soon to make an announcement as Eva was often pictured in baggy clothes. But the star says she just put on weight for her role as Gabrielle Solis.

Our source says: ‘Eva gets really upset about it all and says that a baby would make her family complete.

'She and Tony are so happy together and he longs to be a dad. But nothing’s happened yet.’
