The two started as friends but reportedly the press brought them together after all the speculation about their romance.
"I guess we have the press to thank for pushing us to see something we didn't see!" Said Longoria in an interview.
But now, reports claim the "Ready For Love" bachelor, and self-proclaimed philanthropist and entrepreneur filed for bankruptcy last year with more than $4 million in debt.

According to court documents obtained exclusively by The National Enquirer, Ernesto filed Chapter 7 bankruptcy in 2012, listing $1,555 in assets and a whopping $4.1 million in total liabilities. At the time, he claimed he had just $5 cash on hand.
He also listed $60,000 in student loan debt.
The court papers also revealed that Eva Longoria's new beau was unemployed at the time of the filing, getting by on $2,000 a month he received from his family. With nearly $1,980 going towards monthly expenses, that left him about $20 pocket cash.
Meanwhile, Eva is worth an estimate of $35 million and people close to her are getting worried about the situation.
"Eva needs to slow down and really discover what Ernesto is all about," said a source close to the actress. "We do know one thing, though, Eva will probably be picking up the check for a while even though his bankruptcy has been discharged."
