Longoria, Parker 'desperate for baby'

Eva Longoria and Tony Parker are desperately trying for their first baby - and have promised to break their happy news to 'Desperate Housewives' creator Marc Cherry first.

Cherry reveals the couple - which wed last year - is locked away in the bedroom in a bid to start a family.

And the TV boss has made sure he gets the gossip before friends, castmates and even family members.

He says: "Eva is desperately trying to get pregnant with Tony Parker.

"After they phone their doctor, she promised me I will be the next call."

However, the actress is keen to point out she's not pregnant yet: "I'm not pregnant. I agree with Jennifer Lopez. Somebody asked her, 'Why did you hide your pregnancy for so long?' She said, 'I didn't hide it from the people who needed to know.'"
