Eva Longoria declares she isn’t worried about the toilet paper shortage amid the coronavirus pandemic… as she has a fancy washer-dryer loo
Eva Longoria has declared that she isn’t worried about the toilet paper shortage amid the global coronavirus pandemic as she has a fancy washer-dryer loo.
The former Desperate Housewives star, 45, took part in an Instagram live chat with her publicist and actor friend Jaime Camil on Thursday, as they both self-isolated from home amid COVID-19 fears.
And while Eva joked that she doesn’t mind quarantining because she ‘doesn’t like people’, Jaime admitted that the toilet paper shortage perplexed him.

‘I know!’ Eva replied, as more than 3,000 fans tuned in to watch, ‘But I have one of those fancy toilets so I actually don’t even use that much toilet paper.’
Elaborating on her state-of-the-art bathroom appliance, she added: ‘It washes. It dries. It swirls. It has an oscillator thingy… so I’m good!’
Jane The Virgin star Jaime informed Eva – who was broadcasting from her kitchen – that his assistant is FedEx-ing him toilet roll from Mexico.
While Eva went on to insist that panic buying amid the global crisis is not the answer.
No worries here! Talking about the toilet paper shortage, Eva said: ‘I have one of those fancy toilets so I actually don’t even use that much toilet paper. It washes. It dries. It swirls. It has an oscillator thingy… so I’m good!’ (pictured in her bathroom with son Santiago last year)

‘You don’t need 75 rolls of toilet paper! You don’t need 75 portions of chicken! If you buy all the hand sanitiser, there won’t be any more for anyone else. And that’s how the virus spreads!’
She added: ‘Now is a time to stay home. But also to be kind to others. Check on your elderly neighbour to see if they have food. Cook them something and take it round. Just wear gloves!’
It comes after Eva and her husband José Bastón ventured out with their son Santiago, 21-months, for a walk through the park in Beverly Hills on Tuesday.

Eva, 45, made it clear that she and the family were still keeping safe amid the ongoing coronavirus fears, taking to Instagram to share a selfie of her and Santiago with the message: ‘Out for some fresh air and then right back inside!!’
The star seemed happy to be safe and sound with her family after just recently travelling to Italy, the centre of the COVID-19 pandemic in Europe.
On February 20 Eva flew from Los Angeles to Rome to shoot a short film amid the coronavirus outbreak that has since put all of Italy under lockdown.
She was staying in Castel Gandolfo, a medieval town 25 kilometers away from the capital, and was pictured running through the woods while shooting a scene.
Near the end of February she assured her Instagram followers that she was all right since she was not in northern Italy, where the virus first became a major concern.
‘Hi everybody. I am shooting in this small town in Italy. I am nowhere near the North, thank you for your concerns,’ she said.
‘Everyone was calling and texting me about the coronavirus in the north of Italy. It’s really sad, but we’re further away.’
