Eva Longoria turned heads in New York City this week, not just with her fashion, but with her candid insight into the emotional ride behind her latest project.
Back in the U.S. to promote 'Necaxa,' her new docuseries about owning a Mexican soccer team, the actress and producer appeared on Good Morning America, where she revealed a stark piece of advice she got from one of her fellow investors, Ryan Reynolds.
“They said prepare for heartbreak,” Longoria shared. “’Cause sports is so emotional, with all the ups and the downs. It is an emotional roller coaster.” Longoria co-owns Club Necaxa, a Mexican soccer team she’s been working to revitalize, a journey the series documents in full.

Her latest fashion moment:
As she made her way to Late Night With Seth Meyers, Longoria was photographed in Midtown Manhattan wearing a striking white asymmetrical dres, proving once again that she’s unafraid to break the "no white after Labor Day" rule.

She completed the monochromatic look with pointed white heels, subtle gold jewelry, and a polished beauty look, which included mauve lips, glowing skin, and her signature caramel-highlighted hair worn down.

Eva's new life chapter:
While her return to the U.S. is tied to the launch of Necaxa, Longoria has been living primarily overseas with husband José Bastón and their son Santiago, splitting time between Spain and Mexico.

“And Bree too,” she added. “Bree would have probably been the first Martha Stewart.” And when reminded the series began 21 years ago, she said, “21 years… and I look the same,” Longoria laughed. “No, but it was one of the best times in my life and I have such fond memories of the show.”
