LONGORIA PARKER’S HAPPY AS A HOUSEWIFE
Actress EVA LONGORIA PARKER loves being a wife - but has to work hard on her marriage to make it stronger.
The Desperate Housewives star wed basketball player Tony Parker last summer (07) and the pair can often find themselves apart because of busy workloads but the actress doesn’t let that get in the way of their relationship.
She tells Glamour magazine, "Marriage is a commitment, so you always have to work at it. For us, just juggling schedules is the biggest obstacle we have, and we don’t even really have a problem with that either." The diminutive actress reveals she is more of a traditional wife than her character in the hit show - and always makes sure her husband is well looked after.
She adds, "I love having dinner ready and making sure his clothes are ironed and that he’s packed and ready when he goes on road trips. I’m the gardener (in our relationship). I definitely nurture. (Tony) is the flower. But there are times when Tony takes care of me - in an emotional sense, like, okay, let me take the reins on this one. But I love to take care of him. I’m really a very ’50s housewife." But even though the pair are happily settled, Longoria Parker admits they’re still working on building their relationship: "I take it day by day. Tony and I would love to be together forever. But the only way you get to forever is one day at a time."
