Newlywed actress Eva Longoria has returned to the Desperate Housewives set eleven days after her fairytale wedding.

Longoria, who married French basketball ace Tony Parker at the 17th century Chateau of Vaux le Vicomte in Paris on 7 July, arrived at the Universal Studios fresh from her honeymoon in the Caribbean Island of Turks and Caicos.

The 32-year-old's spokeswoman Liza Anderson says, "It was a great wedding, but it was time to come home.

"I got a call from her this morning (and) she was already at work. She sounded so great, really upbeat. She's completely content."

Anderson says the couple spent much of their honeymoon dining on good food and playing ping pong.

She adds, "It was just her and Tony. They had a private villa. She's completely relaxed and rejuvenated. She had a full week alone with Tony to decompress.

"It was the perfect balance to gear up for Season 4. So she's really excited. She wasn't dreading work at all."
