Eva Longoria fled 'dystopian' America and is 'privileged' to now be living in Mexico and Spain with her family.
The Texas born actress, who has spent her 'whole adult life' in California, says she feels the American 'chapter in my life is done now' and no longer wants to live in Los Angeles, alleging the city has been 'changing'.
Longoria, who has Spanish citizenship, and her producer husband Jos?(C) Bastón, a native of Mexico, have been living abroad with their six-year-old son Santiago while she works on her CNN miniseries Searching for Spain - a follow up to last year's Searching for Mexico.
The Desperate Housewives actress, who campaigned hard for Kamala Harris to win the presidential election, fears that if Donald Trump 'keeps his promises' the US will be a 'scary place'.
'I get to escape and go somewhere,' the Flamin' Hot director, memek 49, told Marie Claire magazine. 'Most Americans aren't so lucky. They're going to be stuck in this dystopian country, and my anxiety and sadness is for them.'
It comes as Trump has started to fill key posts in his second administration and sent shockwaves through the Republican party on Wednesday night with his announcement that he'll nominate Matt Gaetz as his Attorney General.
Keeping with the trend to stock his Cabinet with MAGA allies rather than veteran professionals in their requisite fields, Trump also named Elon Musk for a new cost- and waste-cutting role, Fox News host Pete Hegseth to run the sprawling Defense Department, and Tulsi Gabbard - who infuriated critics with claims about 'biolabs' in Ukraine - to be Director of National Intelligence.

Longoria has broken her silence on the disappointment of Trump winning the 2024 White House race.
'The shocking part is not that he won...It's that a convicted criminal who spews so much hate could hold the highest office,' the Hollywood multi-hyphenate told Marie Claire magazine.
'I would like to think our fight continues...If he keeps his promises, it's going to be a scary place,' added the cover girl, who posed for F?(C)lix Valiente.
She also revealed that she and her family are happily splitting their time between Mexico and Spain. The actress was given the honorary title 'Dame' due to her family roots tracing back to the Spanish city of Oviedo, where her ancestors are from.
Longoria - who married Bastón in 2016 - purchased a six-bedroom, seven-bathroom mega mansion in Marbella in early 2023, with the couple hiring architect and interior designer Nicolás Escanez to help renovate.
The couple started shipping their belongings to the 1,531-square-meter villa - which boasts an indoor pool, sauna, and a state-of-the-art home gym - earlier this year.
The pair also slashed the listing price of their eight-bedroom Beverly Hills pad from $22.8 to $18.9million in February this year because they were 'ready to get out'.
But Longoria has now revealed that while she often ends up in South America or other European destinations for work, she does not frequently return to Los Angeles.
