Eva Longoria's ex-husband has become a father.

Tony Parker and his fiancée Axelle Francine welcomed a baby boy - their first child together - into the world on Wednesday (30.04.14) and have named the tiny tot Josh.

Josh decided to make his arrival just hours before NBA star Tony helped the San Antonio Spurs beat the Dallas Mavericks in the 2014 play-offs.

Speaking to Associated Press, Tony said: ''It was crazy, because it happened last night, late. I didn't sleep. I basically didn't sleep the whole night and just played on adrenaline today. I'm a happy man right now.''

However, Tony's teammate Tim Duncan knew his pal would play well despite his lack of sleep.

He said: ''Coming into the game I told him this is perfect for you. This is what he does in situations like this where he doesn't get a lot of sleep or is in a stressful situation.

''He always seems to play better. I somewhat expected it from him.''

Tony announced he was expecting his first child with Axelle, whom he has been dating for two years, in October.

Meanwhile, Eva divorced the hunky sportsman in 2011 after four years of marriage over claims he had cheated.

However, Eva was devastated by the divorce and previously admitted she stopped eating due to depression.

She said: ''I was not eating. I was depressed. I was sad. My diet was coffee. [But this was] the time I got the most compliments, because I was so skinny.''
