Eva Longoria Trades LA for Life in Spain and Mexico After Trump's Victory

Eva Longoria, known for her roles in hits like Only Murders in the Building and Desperate Housewives, has decided to split her time mostly between Spain and Mexico. The shift came after Donald Trump's election win, which she found unsettling. She calls the current political climate in the U. S. "dystopian. " Longoria is aware that she's privileged to leave and feels for those who can't. The pandemic was the final push for her to leave Los Angeles, where she'd lived her adult life. Her husband José Bastón and their 6-year-old son Santiago have also made the move. Although Trump's win didn't shock her, she's concerned about the direction the country is heading. Before the change, Longoria had already been spending less time in LA. She notes that the city's vibe had shifted, and COVID-19 further amplified that feeling. Despite her move, Longoria remains politically active and focuses on key voter blocs like Latinos and women. She expresses hope that the fight to improve the country continues.
