Eva Longoria says she will never dump boyfriend Tony Parker - because she's too lazy. The Desperate Housewives star - who has already been married once - says she hasn't got the energy to find another lover and insists her basketball star partner feels the same way.

She is quoted in People magazine as saying: "I'd much rather be in a relationship. There's no way in the world I would rather be single. Tony is the same. I've said the only reason Tony and I are going to stay together forever is because we're too lazy to look for someone else."

Meanwhile, Longoria has dismissed reports linking her to a string of other potential suitors including Jamie Foxx and 24 star Kiefer Sutherland. She said: "I don't really pay attention to it.

"Tony and I are really secure. Plus, Tony doesn't have a jealous bone in his body. Kiefer is friends with Tony and me. Jamie is friends with Tony and me. Anybody who's in my life is a friend of mine is also a friend of Tony's."

Meanwhile, the 31-year-old brunette says she finds it difficult having her relationship continually under the spotlight. She said: "If people say, 'How are you and Tony?' and I say, 'I don't want to talk about my personal life', they're saying, 'Trouble In Paradise'.

"Then you talk about it, and they're like, 'Trouble In Paradise: Eva speaks out.' You can't win."
