The mother-of-one, who hails from Texas, says she knows how lucky she is to be able to pick up things and make the move.

She and Mexican producer and executive husband Bastón tied the knot back in 2016 after meeting on a blind date.
She told Isabel Allende on a recent episode of her podcast, Conversations with Eva Longoria that jealousy used to play a part of her past relationships, but not anymore.
"I think that's why, with my second marriage – no wait, my third – finding love at 40, I found [my husband] when I was 40 – and he was 50 – it was just like, 'Can we just enjoy this life together?'"
Longoria is best known for her work on the hit show, Desperate Housewives, alongside the likes of Brenda Strong, Felicity Huffman, Teri Hatcher, Nicollette Sheridan, Marcia Cross.
The actress recently said that despite rumours of a cast feud, they weren't feuding but were just pitted against one another because they were women on a TV show.
