Eva Longoria Reacts to ‘Desperate Housewives’ Photos & Family Memories | PEOPLE

Video Description

Eva Longoria takes a touching and hilarious walk down memory lane as she looks back at personal photos from her life and career. From growing up in Texas with her three sisters to landing her breakout role on ‘Desperate Housewives’, Eva reflects on the pivotal moments that shaped her journey. She starts with a sweet childhood snapshot from the 1980s complete with trendy feathered hair. Eva recalls feeling unsure during the ‘Desperate Housewives’ pilot and nervously debuting her new highlights after producers asked her to change her hair. She reacts to a shot from the show's very first photoshoot, long before the series became a phenomenon. Then it’s off to the Cannes Film Festival in 2005, where Eva wore a $39 gold dress she bought off the rack on Melrose Avenue in Los Angeles. She didn’t know how to react when photographers asked her who she was wearing: “I was so naive in the best way.” Later, Eva reflects on motherhood and shares an adorable photo of her young son visiting her on the set of her directorial debut ‘Flamin’ Hot’. "He was a COVID baby, so I was home when he was 2 and 3. So when I went back to work when he was 4 years old, he was like, 'Where are you going?" she says. She wraps up with a glamorous pic from her 50th birthday party — and a last-minute fashion twist involving lost luggage.
