Eva Longoria: "I have a new love!"

And in the end the entrepreneur managed to find her not among the competitors who had proposed themselves for him.

And indeed the rumors about a possible feeling between the two had been around for a while, but it wasn't long ago that Eva and Ernesto started dating. Despite this, the two already seem very close: a few days ago they returned from a trip to Nicaragua where the "Gaby" of Desperate Housewives she met the rest of his family.

After the breakup of her marriage with French basketball player Tony Parker, Longoria had a brief relationship with Penelope Cruz's brother, Eduardo.
