Eva Longoria pampers husband Tony in the Italian sun

Actress Eva Longoria and basketball player husband Tony Parker looked every inch the loving couple as she applied sun cream to him in the Italian sun.

The 33-year-old Desperate Housewives star doted on Tony while they soaked up the rays on holiday.

She tenderly touched his head and rubbed his back to make sure he was well protected.

They went for a lazy lunch, then shopping, followed by a spot of sunbathing on a yacht off the coast of Italy on Wednesday.

Walking hand-in-hand the pair - whose busy lives mean they often spend long periods apart - appeared to be taking advantage of every moment together.

The actress has made no secret of her desire to have a baby with the 26-year-old San Antonio Spurs player.

However, the couple - who celebrate their first wedding anniversary on Monday - have so far denied rumours Eva is pregnant.
