12 years earlier, the *NSYNC star and Eva broke up after dating for about 8 months.

Attending the 2004 Emmy Awards and the premiere of The Ten Commandments as a couple, it’s rumored that their romance fizzled out because Joshua Scott “JC” Chasez did not take the relationship seriously.

Others have speculated that Longoria cheated on JC Chasez with then-San Antonio Spurs star Tony Parker.

According to an old interview with Britain’s Eve magazine, she has admitted to having “overlapping’ romantic relationships.

“I end up overlapping people because I know I’m over the relationship, so I move on without telling them. It’s not good. I’ve never broken up with someone successfully,” Longoria revealed.

“He’s only been with one other person in his life,” she added about her sexually inexperienced basketball player boyfriend.

Her initial meeting with NBA star Tony Parker was “lust at first sight,” the actress told Allure magazine about meeting French-born Parker in the team’s locker room after a game.

“He’s very sweet,” Longoria said of her relationship with Parker. “I’m the experienced one. I’m the teacher, especially about love. He’s always telling me he’s never met anyone who loves the way I do – wholly and freely and unconditionally.”

Paying The Huffington Post a visit, the then 40-year-old Desperate Housewives actress appeared to be in good spirits as she greeted her fans and signed autographs outside the studio.

Eva flaunted her curves in a fitted long-sleeved top tucked into a statement skirt by Jonathan Simkhai.

Eva’s black mesh pencil skirt had see-through panels that showed off the actress’s shapely legs. The skirt also featured strategically placed lining to make it seem a bit more modest.

Eva allowed her skirt — and curves — to do the talking by styling the look with minimal accessories, including a pair of earrings, a diamond pendant necklace, and a pair of black sandals.
