Eva Longoria is reportedly desperate to have a baby.

The 'Desperate Housewives' star is said to be so intent on having children that she has even threatened to leave her basketball player husband Tony Parker unless he gives in to her demands.

A source close to the couple said: "Tony isn't ready for a baby. He's much younger than Eva and at the top of his profession, while Eva is in her 'baby prime' as she calls it. She even threatened to leave him twice before he agreed."

Friends of the 32-year-old actress say she is definitely the more dominant person in her relationship.

The source added: "Eva wears the trousers in the relationship and if she wants a baby, chances are that Tony won't have much say in the matter."

Eva and Tony married in a star-studded ceremony in Paris, France, last July.

Eva recently expressed a desire to learn French, so she can converse properly with French-born Tony's family.

She said: "I've sworn to myself that I'm going to be able to speak passable French this year. I want to be able to understand Tony when he speaks French with his family and friends. Even though Tony always serves as a translator for me, I feel a bit isolated from his family and I want to overcome that and feel closer to them by learning the language."
