Desperate Housewives star Eva Longoria-Parker took her role serious in a retro-glamorous photo shoot and opens up about her relationship with hubby Tony Parker for the February 2009 issue of Glamour Magazine.

Eva thinks of herself as an old-fashioned housewife (who enjoys to cook, sew and take care of her husband) with a wild side. She also addresses the weight issues and pregnancy rumors, saying she only gained 7 pounds. Here are some highlights from Eva Longoria-Parker’s Glamour interview:

On whether she has a “type”: “I think sometimes women are stuck in a type. I’ve never dated the same type. I fall in love with personalities, and they come in different packages.”

On her and Tony’s marriage: “Tony and I would love to be together forever. But the only way you get to forever is one day at a time.”

On their relationship roles: “I’m the gardener. I definitely nurture. [My husband] is the flower. But there are times when Tony takes care of me — in an emotional sense, like, OK, let me take the reins on this one. But I love to take care of him. I’m really a very fifties housewife.”

On stories about her weight: “Unfortunately, we live our life in public, so any weight gain or pimple is a national story. I don’t get this obsession with weight. It’s not only Hollywood; it’s our society.”

On pregnancy reports: “I’ve been pregnant since last spring with triplets. [Laughs.] No, if I were pregnant [when the tabloids said I was], I’d have had the child many times over.”
