Eva Longoria, famous for Desperate Housewives, has shared her decision to spend more time outside the U.S., dividing her time between Spain and Mexico. In a Marie Claire interview, she explained how the current political climate, especially post-Trump, influenced her decision. Longoria, who has long been involved in activism, feels the U.S. is becoming a “scary place” and acknowledges that the country’s changes have pushed her to rethink her future.

Although she’s spent much of her adult life in California, Longoria admits that the pandemic and issues like homelessness and high taxes made her feel that this chapter in her life had ended. Despite her ability to relocate, she expressed empathy for those unable to escape the challenges they face in the U.S.

Longoria’s decision to live abroad reflects a broader trend among celebrities like Angelina Jolie and Candace Cameron Bure, who are seeking privacy and balance outside of Hollywood. For now, she’s enjoying a fulfilling lifestyle abroad while maintaining her Hollywood career.

Despite the move, Longoria remains active, with numerous projects lined up, including a role in Only Murders in the Building and a new War of the Worlds adaptation. She continues to balance her career with her personal values and a quieter life.
