MARCIA CROSS: I DIDN’T GET MARRIED TO SHIELD MYSELF FROM GAY RUMOURS

Marcia Cross had her hands full yesterday (March 26) as she took her adorable twin girls, Eden and Savannah Mahoney, to a Santa Monica, CA park.

Though it must have been hard juggling twins all day, the Desperate Housewives actress seemed to enjoy every second she spent with her little girls!

Meanwhile, in a new interview with Australia’s Herald Sun, Marcia laughs off rumours that she quickly got married to husband Tom Mahoney shortly after rumors began to circulate in 2005 that she was gay.

“‘I was seeing Tom when all that happened, but I was not going to (name him) as proof of my sexuality,” she says. “I was annoyed. I thought, ‘That is nobody’s business’. I was actually proud of myself for not panicking and going, ‘I’m not (gay). Look. Here is my guy’.”

A few more highlights from her interview:

Marcia on playing control freak Bree Van de Kamp: “‘I was thrilled (about the five-year leap) because I knew sort of where Bree was going and I was really looking for her to get out of the house. ‘I mean, she’s going to get out of the house with her muffins. But at least she’s getting out of the house. I think it’s as it is in life. Growth is inevitable. I just thought it would be great for her to get out and get into the world and out of the problems, the domestic problems. Though they’ll probably be right back there. I don’t know.”

Marcia on meeting Tom: “I didn’t think I was going to meet anybody. I sort of let that go. It (meeting Mahoney) has made me believe in miracles. I was very cynical. It’s a lovely thing to have a partner to share good things with. I don’t think this (Housewives’ success) would be as much fun if I didn’t have somebody to share the ride.”

Marcia on motherhood: “I just wanted to have kids. I wish I’d met my husband earlier. It’s sad to have it so late because you want to be alive as long as possible for them. It’s maths, you know. (Motherhood) is a lifelong process and you really want to be there for them. ‘I’m such a happy mother. I didn’t imagine how phenomenal it is. It’s really rocked my world. It really cracks your heart wide open. It also makes you feel incredibly vulnerable because ‘oh, my God, should anything happen’ (to her children). It’s amazing.”

    She seems really sweet and down to earth. I hope her husband will be okay.
