Eva Longoria and Tony Parker are mere weeks away from their Paris nuptials. The Desperate Housewives star recently talked with Latina magazine about their relationship, the wedding, and her future baby plans.
On their seven year age difference:
“I don’t know if it’s because he’s French or what, but he’s actually far ahead of me in years with a lot of things – he’s so disciplined and way more intelligent about money and investments,” she says. “Then there’s things in which I’m ahead of him, but we balance each other out really nice, as it should be.”
On their Parisian wedding which will reportedly take place on July 7 at a castle north of the city, the Chateua de Chantilly:
“It will be a very traditional wedding... the Mexicans take over Paris!”
On her family take on interracial dating:
“I thought it would be an issue, because of our community, but not once has it ever come up with anyone in my family, even with my real traditional Mexican grandma... they love him for who he is.”
On possibly adopting:
“We both have big hearts and the finances to do it, and we want to be able to provide an environment of love and stability to a child who otherwise wouldn’t have that,”
On hosting the upcoming ALMA Awards:
“I actually didn’t want to do it at first. We had to make it reflect our community now, which is very integrated and complex. There are so many colors within our culture, and I found it really important to make the show all-inclusive from white to Hispanic to black, whatever it may be, and just celebrate our culture by showing other cultures.”
On empowering Latinas in America:
“We need to increase the number of women who go to college. We still have high pregnancy rates and high percentages of high school dropouts. Everything is intertwined... it’s up to us to lay the groundwork for future generations.”
