Mark Sanchez ‘in love’ with Eva Longoria

After Eva Longoria shared with viewers on Access Hollywood that she was indeed dating NFL player Mark Sanchez, a source is now reporting that hunky Sanchez is just as much smitten with Longoria as she is with him.

A source told Access Hollywood, “He is really in love with her and serious about her.”

Longoria and her New York Jets beau came under dating rumors after the couple were recently spotted out celebrating together. But the couple never officially confirmed anything until Longoria was pressured by Access Hollywood’s host, and friend of the Desperate Housewives actress, Mario Lopez.

According to ABC News, 37-year-old Longoria was romantically linked to Penelope Cruz’s brother Eduardo earlier this year.

The two started dating only a few months after Longoria’s split from ex-husband Tony Parker.

Sanchez, who is 12 years younger than his new Latin lady, played college football at USC and began his career in the NFL after being drafted in 2009.
