Eva Longoria's Family Plan

Eva Longoria Parker wants a big family.

The 'Desperate Housewives' actress - who has been married to basketball star Tony Parker for three years - insists she is not in a hurry to have children but dreams of a large brood.

She said: "Having a big family is really important to both of us.

"I feel more confident in myself now, and Tony and I would love for children to happen - though we're in no rush."

The 35-year-old star also spoke of her attempts to maintain a low profile when socialising with her husband and friends, admitting it doesn't always go to plan.

She explained: "I went to a Pussycat Dolls gig recently and thought I'd sneak behind the paparazzi to avoid getting spotted.

"But in my rush I fell over and twisted my ankle. My purse flew everywhere and I was desperately scrambling around trying to grab my stuff, it was so embarrassing."
