Ernesto Arguello - Ready For Love - Spoilers - Discussion

Wait a Minute:  

I'd like to know who writes the captions for these pictures.  In one picture it says Ernesto can't keep his eyes off her.  The problem is he's looking down and not at her.

Another one says something like her ever attentive bf gives her a foot rub.  In the picture she's resting her foot on him and he's holding his drink not giving her a foot rub.

And what's with the picture of her and the fork.  And a few of the other pictures she just looks like an exhibitionist.

You may be right and they may headed for the alter and since I can't seem to say anything that isn't negative about them I'll keep my guess on how long it lasts to myself.

Yikes indeed! But, it could be pregnancy too. All I know is you can see her panty line and her tummy is spilling over a bit but her legs and face still look slim.

If she is pregnant, looks like she is just kicking off 2nd trimester.

i also wonder who writes these captions and whether they are just plain dumb or don't even bother to really look at the pictures before writing some nonsensical comment. even perez hilton posts the most idiotic comments about the pictures he puts up on his site, many of which make little sense with respect to the "news" he's supposedly reporting with some sort of inside gossip scoop.

i agree it's hard to look at these two and not have something negative to say. i saw a gossip piece online that wasn't very flattering and referred to ernesto as someone who is nothing more than "a reality star and has no soul". (http://celebslam.celebuzz.com/2013/08/eva-longoria-ernesto-arguello-1.php)  up until this fiasco of a relationship with ernesto, i had much more respect for eva. not a super talented actress but a good enough tv star who seems genuinely engaged in social causes and philanthropy. she also seems to be a hard worker who took herself from nothing to being one of the more financially successful woman in hollywood. in contrast, i don't see anything hard working about ernesto. quite the opposite. everything about him seems to be nothing more than a creation. a canard.

Wait a Minute:

I have had a thought about all this talk about Ernesto not having any money and Eva getting him on her Devious Maids so he can contribute to the relationship.

One thing about Ernesto that I believe is true is that he has a big ego and don't see him taking all this talk about him being broke and Eva paying for everything et cetera without speaking out.

My thought is that because of the bankruptcy he sure can't be out there being seen as spending all kinds of money on vacations and all the world wind trips that they take so I think putting out there that he has no money to contribute to the relationship is something that has been concocted so it doesn't look like he has money.

It is hard to believe that he would allow Eva to pull out her wallet every time they go somewhere. What are your thoughts.

as i have said all along, ernesto is not broke. never has been. his family is very wealthy and very well connected. the bankruptcy was simply a legal device to shield himself from the debt of the corporation he was part of and for which he personally guaranteed a mortgage on the stay at lincoln hotel property (which they planned to knock down and build high rise condos on the site). while that bankruptcy was winding its way through the bankruptcy court he was still traveling around the world (as evidenced by old twitter and facebook posts). he was also still making mortgage payments on his miami beach condo and paying the condo assocation fee - or at least someone was making those payments on his behalf. my guess is his monthly cost for that condo is easily around $5000 and could be $6,000 or more. where does the money come from? my guess is from family and various family businesses, some of which are offshore. while he was in bankruptcy someone was paying his bills for travel, the condo, etc. by the way, now that the bankruptcy has been discharged, no one is looking at what he makes or spends now.

Wait a Minute:

I guess you and I are the only two still following this Eva/Ernesto saga. My only interest, I guess, in following through is to see if my intuition on the outcome is correct.

I saw a little mention and picture of E/E in People magazine. Usually any article of them are just on People.com but these were actually in two consecutive issues. Both articles were in the celebrity news section. The first one mentioned that they were house hunting in West Hollywood, looking for a Mediterranean style home. The second article was a picture of them in Spain and the caption said Eva and Ernesto heating it up in Spain. I'm beginning to think she has an in with People magazine since they seemed to be the ones really following these two.

Again, wonder if their presence in Spain was made known to the paps because there sure are a bunch of pictures of them, all seem to be from the same day. The picture from People I know they had to be in on the photo because they were both brimming with smiles and seemed very aware they were being photographed.

Shandi seems to be happy. She often refers to her bf but hasn't mentioned his name. I saw a tweet from her partner Susie to her and Shandi did refer to the guy as Ben. He is quite handsome. According to Shandi she met him in early April of this year. They are going to Italy the end of August. Shandi starts a new job in early September as a news correspondent along with four other celebs. So glad for her if she is as happy as she says she is. If I could read between the lines I would say she's still bruised from this Ernesto fiasco.

been some recent activity on twitter by eva and ernesto - could be something or could be nothing. since coming home from marbella, spain separately (ernesto to miami and eva to los angeles) they've been apart more than a week. eva even went to texas to celebrate her father's birthday, but ernesto didn't join her.  in the past few days eva has posted some tweets that are either cryptic messages or simply something that caught her eye. ernesto did the same today. interested to see what any of you think.

Eva Longoria 9 Aug
"@paulocoelho: The true lover  realizes that freedom is needed for loyalty to blossom pic.twitter.com/AGdBpeCsui" love this

the actual quote in the picture is a bit different:

 today eva retweeted this:

Inspirational Quotes ‏@Inspire_Us 
Happiness will come to you when it comes from you. Success will be yours when you choose to take responsibility for making it so.
 Retweeted by Eva Longoria

late today ernesto tweeted the following:

Ernesto Arguello ‏@ernestoarguello 2h
"Err in the direction of kindness" great speech  by George Saunders! 

the speech he mentioned was a commencement address where the speaker talked about putting more emphasis on kindness rather than success.

coincidence or cryptic? time will tell.

Wait a minute:

I'm thinking cryptic but you know we've been wrong before.

I never thought of Ernesto being one to not want his alone time (freedom) So it wouldn't surprise me.

That's why I thought that him and Shandi made such a good couple because she doesn't need a guy that's tied to her apron. She has said that she wanted a guy that he could do his thing and she could do her thing but they could do it together. But there was never any doubt that if Ernesto needed Shandi that she would be there for him. I think that's the best kind of relationship when you don't have to be glued to the hip with someone.

I'm not saying it's for everyone but I have been married for 38 yrs and don't think we would have lasted without him having his occasional golf weekend with the guys and me having my weekends with the girls every now and then. And we are just as happy today as we were when we married.

I don't think that he's had much of a break from Eva in the last year or so and maybe he's ready for some Ernesto time.

Thanks for bringing these things here because otherwise I wouldn't know what's been going on.

was just watching E News channel and they had a segment on an event for the hollywood foreign press eva attended. she was interviewed and asked about her spending time with ernesto. she looked a bit uncomfortable when she answered and simply said something like "he's doing fine". considering all the public hand holding, house hunting, etc., it seemed to be a strange answer for someone supposedly so in love.

add to that ernesto's tweet to eva today in response to the announcement that her devious maids show was renewed for another season.

Ernesto Arguello @ernestoarguello 
So proud n happy for you @EvaLongoria @LatinoVoices: @DeviousMaids gets renewed for a 2nd season

maybe i'm looking for something that isn't there, or maybe "it" really isn't there. his tweet seemed more like something from just a friend, rather than a serious boyfriend.

it's a tight race, but cryptic is starting to open up a slim lead.

Wait a minute:

I agree with cryptic ahead by a hair's breath.

Especially her comment on E News. She's usually gushing all over about him.

It has always been my thought that while they were dating (under the radar) so to speak there is something about the thrill of doing something and getting away with it. I always felt that once they were in the open and all the paps and stories about them would eventually get to Ernesto. Let's face it, there have been more negative stories then positive about him.

The last article that I read was just before they were in Spain and it said something like "sources close to the couple" say they are so in love and want to get married soon and start a family. They even looked at rings while they were in Paris. No doubt that that was something Eva wanted put out there.

Thanks again for the update..

here's a couple of big clues to look for - eva is in miami today to receive an award on a live show on Telemundo tv. no mention of ernesto yet today and ernesto hasn't tweeted anything either. the clues are whether or not they are seen together on this trip (as miami is where lives) and if there is any public displays of affection between them as we've seen in the past or any sightings of them out on the town.

Wait a Minute:

I'm not quite there with you yet because they had a week apart when he was on holiday without her during the George Clooney fiasco but then he flew right to LA and they were tighter than ever.

That might be why he flew to Miami and she flew to, I think you said Texas, for her dad's birthday from Spain. He might have went to Miami to attend to some business knowing that she would be joining him in Miami within a few days.

I watched the E news last night and when asked about her "friend" Ernesto she kind of chuckled and just said "he's good." I'm with you, though, because she has used every chance to get it out there how "in love" they are and that could have been an opportunity for her to pour it on thick.

Let me know if you see any pictures of them in Miami. I'll also keep my eyes open.
