Inside Eva Longoria And Victoria Beckham's Friendship
Eva Longoria and Victoria Beckham are major friendship goals. Many would think that an American actress and a British pop-star-turned-fashion designer would not have a chance to form a close friendship. However, the two have crossed the Atlantic Ocean numerous times to show up for one another.
Longoria and Beckham met in 2007 when the former "Spice Girl" was living in the U.S. while her husband David Beckham was playing for LA Galaxy, per Hello!. Upon meeting, the two hit it off and have become fast friends since. "Victoria and I are friends in life so we give each other advice on everything. Everything," Longoria told Closer Weekly. The "Desperate Housewives" star also shared that she and Beckham have pajama slumber parties and stay up while her hairstylist brushes their hair.
Along with laid-back pajama parties, Longoria and Beckham galavant all over the world together to party it up. Just this past August, the two besties were spotted in Miami looking fashionably chic in Beckam's designs, per Harper's Bazaar. In fact, Longoria is often seen wearing Victoria Beckham and seems to be a big fan of her friend's style.
Eva Longoria supports Victoria Beckham's fashion career
In 2016, Eva Longoria married José Antonio Bastón wearing a custom wedding dress designed by Victoria Beckham, per Hello!. "I asked Victoria to do my dress because I wanted it to be special and made with love — and I knew Victoria would make it with love," Longoria gushed. Beckham initially balked at the idea of creating a wedding gown and told her friend, "Oh my God, that's awesome. [But] I don't do wedding dresses, I do dresses," per People. However, Longoria told her she didn't want a traditional gown and asked for something "simple and elegant," which Beckham certainly delivered.
Longoria recently wore a Victoria Beckham design to another wedding — this time to Beckham's son Brooklyn Beckham's nuptials to Nicola Peltz, per TZR. Longoria donned a slinky, floor-length, black gown with a cut-out detail across the chest. Beckham had previously modeled the dress herself on Instagram, and described how the "detailing makes it feel special." Longoria not only shows support for her friend's career by wearing her clothes, but she also flies across the country for her fashion shows. Longoria was spotted in Paris for Beckham's Spring 2023 line during Paris Fashion Week, per Women's Wear Daily. "It couldn't have gone better," she raved.
Victoria Beckham chose Eva Longoria as her daughter's godmother
Victoria Beckham and Eva Longoria are so tight that they're practically family. In December 2019, Beckham announced via Instagram that her son Cruz and her daughter Harper were baptized. "So much to be grateful for," she wrote. In another post, Beckham stood with her family, along with Longoria and singer Marc Anthony. She shared, "I couldn't be more proud of my children and thankful to my family, and the most wonderful Godparents." Beckham looked as posh as ever in an all-white outfit, while Longoria looked equally fashionable in a beige pantsuit.
Longoria share the same snap on her Instagram feed and wrote, "What an honor to serve as Godmother to the sweetest little girl in the world! Love you #HarperSeven." It seems as if even the two BFFs' kids are close, as Longoria shared a picture of Harper holding her son, Santi. "Happy Birthday Harper Seven! I love you! (And obviously so does Santi from the look of it)," she wrote. It looks like Longoria and Beckham's friendship is so deep, it's spanning multiple generations.
