Eva Longoria has been stealing from the `Desperate Housewives`

The 37-year-old actress wanted mementos from the eight years on the programme - which will come to an end this month - but admitted bosses had to stop her from taking more items and she is trying to conceal what she has already taken.

She said: "I have stolen some stuff but I`m not going to tell you exactly what because they`ll ask for it back.

"They`ve already told me, `Stop stealing things.` I don`t want them to know what it is that I have stashed away. What I really want are the Warhols but I haven`t found them!"

Eva has admitted the read-through of the final script of the series turned into a "crying fest" because she and her co-stars Brenda Strong, Felicity Huffman and Marcia Cross were overwhelmed with emotion.

She admitted to TV Guide magazine: "It was a crying fest. "Brenda couldn`t get through her voice-overs. I couldn`t get through my dialogue."

Felicity added: "We sat there crying, hugging and reminiscing."

Marcia said: "It was a sweet, private moment for us."
