She added height to her slender legs with strappy heels while she left the rest of her look simple, accessorising with stud earrings.

The Beverly Hills Chihuahua 3: Viva La Fiesta actress styled her face-framing locks in natural waves while she worked a fresh-faced make-up look.

Eva, 40, Instagrammed a photo with Jesse, 36, captioned: 'Look who I ran into today! My favourite gardner!!!!#DesperateHousewives#OneOfMyFavPeople'.

At the event referred to on Instagram as #LGFamtoTable, Eva performed baking demonstrations using the new LG Pro Bake convection oven.
