Eva’s baby ban
While the news that Eva Longoria has been asked by “Desperate Housewives” producer and creator Marc Cherry not to have any children right away isn’t exactly new, the details have been sketchy until now. For Eva to get pregnant, and to have that pregnancy written into the show (which it would virtually have to be because of Eva’s slender frame and the show’s propensity towards showing off her curves), would destroy a years worth of plot lines for her character, Gaby. Right now, she’s supposed to be growing, confused with who she is and where she is going and there’s no room in the storyline for the sudden responsibility of parenthood. Eva is reportedly anxious to start a family with her new husband Tony Parker, but is willing to wait the year she promised to Cherry in order to better serve the show.
She has been quoted as saying, “Tony and I are excited about starting a family, but because Marc has forbidden me to get pregnant this year we’re going to spend time as a married couple and build a solid foundation together before we bring our child into the world.” Which is really a good plan for the newlyweds. Get to know one another and enjoy one another before adding the dimension of parenthood to your resume. And who knows, maybe this means in a year’s time that Gaby (and Eva, of course) will be sporting a pregnancy bump and a fantastic storyline to go along with it. All I can say is I hope it’ll be Carlos’ baby.
