As for Longoria, she expressed how she lost a part of herself after the split.
“It was heartbreaking,” she told Piers Morgan on celebrity.land in April 2011. “I think it was disappointing because I had such an identity in being Mrs. Parker and being a wife. So when that’s taken away from you. You go, ‘Who am I?’ And that was hard.”
Still, the Flamin’ Hot director said she “would never speak ill” of Parker or their time together. And while some may have cast doubt on their Hollywood romance, Longoria noted that trust was important for any couple regardless of their industry.
“People go, ‘Oh, he’s an athlete, you’re an actress,'” she continued. “If you’re a dentist and a lawyer, if you’re a secretary and a teacher, you need trust in any relationship much less a marriage. I love the concept of marriage, and I love being a wife, and I was very devoted and dedicated. Everybody who knows me—my friends—they know we tried our hardest. We really, really tried, and it just didn’t work. We wanted different things.”
And when it comes to Parker, “He’s not a bad person,” Longoria added. “He just wanted something else, and I don’t hate him for it.”
However, she refused to go into detail about what led to the end of their union.
“I would never speak publicly about what happened or why we got divorced because I love him,” the 51-year-old said. “We still talk. We still are in each other’s lives.”
