Eva Longoria gets honest about motherhood in her 40s

Eva Longoria has recently made honest confession about becoming a mother at the age of 43.

The Desperate Housewives actress, who welcomed her son Santiago in 2018 with husband Jose Baston, reveals that motherhood has taught her “more wisdom and patience” as a parent in her 40s.

Eva, who appears in the festive movie Christmas Karma, believes that becoming a mother at 43 was “perfect timing” in a new interview with The Sunday Times Style magazine.

“My family is my priority, so if I'm saying yes to something and it's taking time away from them, it's got to be something I'm really going to enjoy and people I really want to work with,” explains the 50-year-old

Devious Maids star shares, “I have so much more wisdom and patience when you become a mother in your forties. It was all about me for so long.”

Eva points out that 40 years of her “was enough time, so I was really blessed to have my child later in life because I had travelled”.

“I'd done everything I needed to do for my career. Now everything I do is just icing on the cake and I get to do that with my son,” points out the War of the Worlds actress.

Meanwhile, Eva is all set to direct a Netflix comedy called The Fifth Wheel alongside Kim Kardashian.
