While a great many people are celebrating today’s news that Prince William of Wales has gotten engaged to be married to longtime girlfriend Kate Middleton, there is a bit of somewhat surprising break-up news to share … according to TMZ, Eva Longoria and her husband of 3 years Tony Parker have just filed for divorce in Houston, TX. Eva and Tony are dunzo, y’all!
Eva Longoria and Tony Parker are getting divorced … TMZ has learned. Parker filed for divorce yesterday in Texas. The “Desperate Housewives” actress and the San Antonio Spurs star married back in July of 2007. Eva has stated that she has Tony’s initials tattooed on her body … in a mystery spot. She also has Tony’s jersey number — “Nine” — tattooed on the back of her neck.
To be honest, I was completely unaware that anything was amiss in the couple’s relationship but I guess things like this aren’t always public knowledge. It is interesting that it was Tony who filed for divorce from Eva … usually, it’s the other way around. At this point, we don’t know what the cause of the split is but I’m sure the stories will start going around shortly. Alas … another Hollywood marriage bites the dust. So sad.
UPDATE: There are other reports going around in the wake of this news that claim that press reps for Longoria and Parker are DENYING that the couple are divorcing. Stay tuned …
UPDATE 2: TMZ has published a retraction to their Longoria/Parker divorce story. Eva‘s publicist confirmed to TMZ that the couple are NOT getting divorced. Here are the updated deets as reported by TMZ:
A rep for Eva Longoria tells TMZ our story that Tony Parker filed for divorce is not true. TMZ reported that Tony had filed for divorce. Two clerks at the Bexar County Courthouse in Texas had told us the case was filed and sealed by a family law judge. But Eva’s rep tells us Tony did not file and does not even have a divorce lawyer. Another clerk at the courthouse now tells us she’s in charge of sealed cases and says no such case has crossed her desk.
Whew! Well that’s good news. It’s very rare that TMZ gets a story like this so wrong but at least they were very quick about publishing a retraction. I am very happy to know that things are hunky-dory in the marriage of Eva Longoria and Tony Parker :D
when i heard this on the radio my mouth was literally open for 10 minutes i was shocked and still am. but i don’t believe this is true…….
I’m pretty shocked. I thought they would last. Best of luck to them both.
Wow this is a huge surprise…can’t any celeb couples stay married anymore? Geesh!
I always knew they wouldn’t last! I thought they were so random together… I mean, there’s a 7 year age gap between them, but Tony (28) seems really mature and Eva seems really immature for being 35 and seems like she’s trying to stay young and what not. Of course, I’m just reading into the situation and don’t know them personally, but it’s just my opinion.
I hope it isn’t true. I hate how many celeb marriages (and marriages in general) end in divorce. =(
Hmmm…where’s there’s smoke there’s fire, right? Seems fishy to me.
Weird!
oh lord, thank goodness. i think there an adorable couple – and yes i know that the past few months we should all know that even if they look happy they may not be – but when they were both on Ellen like a week ago…they were sooooo happy.
I’m willing to bet that these two will be splitting up. I imagine the real problem is that the info came out too soon.
No, no, no! When I heard this rumor this morning, I wanted to cry because the two seem so in love and almost perfect for each other! They are one of my fave celeb couples!!! THANK GOODNESS it’s not true… and I’m hoping that nothing is wrong with them!
This is true!! they both confirmed it!
