Eva Longoria was 43 when she had her son, Santiago Enrique Bastón, on June 19, 2018. The actress, famous for "Desperate Housewives," and her husband José Antonio Bastón welcomed their first kid in Los Angeles. She'd talked openly about becoming a mom later in life, how timing and feeling ready mattered most. People got curious about her age—it's become this whole thing in Hollywood, women having babies later. His name's Santiago Enrique Bastón. Born June 19, 2018, in LA. Weighed 6 pounds 13 ounces. Longoria and her husband, a Mexican media exec, keep things pretty private about him. They'll drop a photo on social media now and then. She calls him happy, full of energy. In interviews, she can't stop talking about how amazing motherhood is. She's been straight up about using a surrogate. In a 2018 interview, she said they went that route for medical reasons. Fertility stuff was tough for her. The surrogate? A close friend. She called it a personal decision and felt lucky to become a mom. It's sparked conversations about different ways to have kids, especially when fertility's an issue. Being 43 when she had Santiago puts her in good company. Halle Berry had her first at 41. Jennifer Lopez had twins at 38. It's a bigger thing now—women focusing on careers and personal stuff before kids. Longoria talks about the upsides: emotional maturity, financial stability. But she's real about the downsides too, like needing medical help, surrogacy. She's all about the positive side of being a mom at 43. Says she's way more prepared and grounded than she'd have been in her 20s or 30s. Credits her life and career for helping her really get into parenting. Calls out the stigma around older moms, telling women to do what's right for them. On social media, she shares little parenting moments, showing how joyful and fulfilling it is. Nope. She used a surrogate because of fertility problems. Never had a natural pregnancy. She was 41 when they got married in May 2016. The wedding was in Mexico City. She's said she's open to it but hasn't made any plans. Right now, she's all about raising Santiago. Around $80 million.
