Tracy stopped by our LA studios recently to talk about the dating advice she doles out in her latest book and her opinion on why TV dating shows can still create authentic romances.

Eva Longoria wore bikini bottoms and a rashguard as she waded in the waves in Malibu today. The actress and producer was busy overseeing a shoot for her new reality show, Ready For Love, in which three single guys enlist the help of matchmakers to help them find romance. Today, Eva seemed to be having a blast as she splashed in the ocean and hopped on a paddleboard.

Eva herself is single again following her split from Eduardo Cruz. The pair first began dating in February 2011, and their most recent breakup was their second. Eva and Eduardo gave their romance a second try after initially parting ways last March, but Eduardo confirmed their latest split through his rep in late June. Since then, Eva and New York Jets player Mark Sanchez have been rumored to be casually dating.
