Eva Longoria reveals she has fled 'dystopian' America with her family and is now living in Mexico and Spain

Eva Longoria fled 'dystopian' America and is 'privileged' to now be living in Mexico and Spain with her family.

The Texas born actress, who has spent her 'whole adult life' in California, has revealed that the American 'chapter in my life is done now.

The Desperate Housewives actress and her producer husband José Bastón, a native of Mexico, have been living abroad with their six-year-old son Santiago while she works on her CNN miniseries Searching for Spain - a follow up to last year's Searching for Mexico.

Longoria, who campaigned hard for Kamala Harris to win the presidential election , has warned that if Donald Trump 'keeps his promises' the US will be a 'scary place'.

She told Marie Claire magazine that she no longer wants to live in Los Angeles , alleging the city has been 'changing', and acknowledged she is fortunate that 'I get to escape and go somewhere'.

'Most Americans aren't so lucky. They're going to be stuck in this dystopian country, and my anxiety and sadness is for them,' Longoria, 49, told the magazine. She was joined by longtime friend George Clooney , a prominent Democratic fundraiser, in the interview.

Longoria has broken her silence on the disappointment of Trump winning the 2024 White House race.

'The shocking part is not that he won...It's that a convicted criminal who spews so much hate could hold the highest office,' the Hollywood multi-hyphenate told Marie Claire magazine .

'I would like to think our fight continues...If he keeps his promises, it's going to be a scary place,' added the cover girl, who posed for Félix Valiente.

She also revealed that she and her family are happily splitting their time between Mexico and Spain and claims that while she often ends up in South America or other European destinations for work, she does not frequently return to Los Angeles.

'I had my whole adult life here,' Longoria said of her former home. 'But even before [the pandemic], it was changing. The vibe was different. And then COVID happened, and it pushed it over the edge.

'Whether it's the homelessness or the taxes, not that I want to s**t on California — it just feels like this chapter in my life is done now.'

Longoria, who recently appeared in the latest season of Only Murders in the Building and the Apple TV+ series Land of Women, admitted she is 'privileged' to have the opportunity to live abroad.

Clooney and Longoria have fundraised together and connected over their mutual involvement in political activism.

He is adamant that in that time he has been more fan than mentor. 'She kicked a**,' he continues, referring to her work on Flamin' Hot, about a janitor who helped created the classic chip.

'Talent doesn't sustain you in this business. It requires hard work, determination, and brass balls. We know countless stars who flamed out. The reason she's still so relevant is because she won't take no for an answer,' he said.

Also in the interview Eva talked about turning 50.

'For me, age is just a number, but I'm excited...I refuse to believe my greatest success is behind me,' she said.

'I'm cold-plunging; I've got red lights on; I strength train with weights; I meditate; I'm journaling...I wake up with the sun; I'm doing the grounding; I have an Oura ring to track deep sleep; I'm taking magnesium and other supplements; I'm doing everything.

'Not because I don't want to age but because I do want to age.'

She also reflected on being a woman in the entertainment industry:

'I show up on time...I show up prepared,' she said.

'Our industry is famous for specifically men failing up. It's like, 'He got that movie? Didn't he just... The last movie, he just...? Didn't that bomb? And they give him another [chance].

'That's great, but I couldn't do that. I don't get a second chance.

'I think for me, there's no better position than to be underestimated because then you can always over deliver. I'm comfortable outworking anybody in the room.'
