Eva Longoria was reluctant to tell Meryl Streep that they are related.
The 50-year-old actress discovered she was connected to the 75-year-old Hollywood great when she took part in the 2010 documentary series 'Faces of America', but when they bumped into each other in a green room at an awards show and a pal urged her to explain their ancestral bond, Eva declined - but quickly discovered the 'Devil Wears Prada' star was well aware of their connection.
