Hollywood star Eva Longoria has recently opened up about her decision to leave the United States for a split lifestyle in Mexico and Spain. This revelation came during an engaging interview with French magazine Marie Claire, where she expressed her concerns about what she termed the country's "changing vibe" following the pandemic.

Longoria cited increasing issues such as homelessness, soaring taxes in California, and the political climate—especially after Donald Trump's re-election—as driving forces behind her family’s move. In a candid admission, she recognized her privilege in being able to relocate, stating, “Most Americans aren’t so lucky. They’re going to be stuck in this dystopian country.”

The actress, best known for her role as Gabrielle Solis in the hit show *Desperate Housewives*, has long been an advocate for women and Latino representation in politics. Her involvement with the Democratic Party spans over a decade, actively supporting candidates and raising awareness on crucial issues, particularly immigration reform. She made headlines speaking at the Democratic National Convention and has been a vocal supporter of Vice President Kamala Harris.

Reflecting on the recent politically charged atmosphere, Longoria expressed dismay at Trump's triumph over Harris in the latest electoral battle, stating, "If he keeps his promises, it’s going to be a scary place.” This sentiment conveys a broader anxiety felt by many in the wake of the changing political landscape.

Longoria, a ninth-generation Texan who made a mark in California during her formative years in Hollywood, has been a prominent figure in entertainment and activism. She recounted, "I had my whole adult life here,” but confessed that it now seems like “this chapter in my life is done.”

In addition to her acting accolades—including a Golden Globe nomination for her work in *Desperate Housewives*—Longoria has recently embraced new projects as a host on CNN's mini-series *Searching for Mexico* and *Searching for Spain*, showcasing her passion for culture and travel.

On the personal front, she shares a six-year-old son, Santiago, with her husband, José "Pepe" Bastón, the president of Televisa, who also has three children from a previous marriage.

With her family now adjusting to life in Mexico and Spain, Longoria's move highlights a growing trend among Americans seeking a more favorable environment amidst societal shifts back home. As many contemplate their future in the US, the question arises: will more celebrities follow in her footsteps?
