Eva and José first announced they were expecting back in December 2017, with the Desperate Housewives star's representative confirming the news to a number of publications.

Eva began dating José, who is the president of Televisa, the largest media company in Latin America, in 2013 and they became engaged in 2015. They later married in May 2016 in Mexico.

Just last month, Eva paid tribute to her husband in a loving post on Instagram. Posting next to a number of red roses, Eva wrote, 'So Monday was our 2 year anniversary and I didn’t forget, I was just too sleepy to post! My wonderful husband sent me these gorgeous flowers and I’m giving him a baby 😂! I’m the luckiest woman in the world to have a husband like Pepe and I pray we have 50 more years of many blessings, much laughter and endless happiness! Happy Anniversary Amor Mìo! ❤❤❤' sic
