‘NO, JUST BLOATED’

Actor Eva Longoria (right), best known for her work in the TV show Desperate Housewives, has brushed aside pregnancy rumours with a funny reply.

Longoria, enjoying her Hawaiian getaway in celebration of husband Jose Baston’s 49th birthday, has shared some photos and videos, in which she has a more rounded stomach.

That has set fans thinking that she may be expecting her first child. But the actor laughs off the baby talk and insists she’s just “bloated”. Posting her Snapchat story, Longoria says, “I saw some pictures of myself really fat, on a boat. I have to tell you, all I did was eat cheese. Everybody’s saying I’m pregnant, and I’m not. I was just lactose intolerant, apparently.”

Walking around her beachside property, as seen in the social media post, she continues, “I just had to share [this] because my whole family is calling me, asking me if I’m pregnant. Yes, I looked pregnant, but it was just a ball of cheese... a ball of cheese in my stomach.”

She then jokes about the effects of eating carbs, saying, “After I eat any kind of carb, I just blow up... So that’s the news of the day.”
