Tony Parker filed his own divorce papers in Texas on Friday, a source close to Parker confirmed to UsMagazine.com. His wife of three years, Eva Longoria, filed on Wednesday in Los Angeles.

The move comes after the latest Us Weekly reported that Longoria Parker, 35, recently discovered that her husband, 28, has been exchanging personal texts with a mutual friend for nearly a year — hundreds in just one month.

“Tony is still hoping to keep this as amicable and private as possible,” the source tells Us.

Longoria filed for divorce citing irreconcilable differences, a move that was anything but surprising to Parker. “He was aware that she would be filing for divorce in Los Angeles,” a rep for the NBA star told Us in a statement on Thursday.

The couple met in 2004 and famously wed in a $1.5 million wedding at a 17th century castle in Paris in July 2007.

Tony Parker wasn’t surprised when his beautiful wife of three years actress Eva Longoria filed for divorce.

“Eva and I have been discussing our situation privately,” Parker, 29, tells UsMagazine.com in a statement. “I was aware that she would be filing for divorce in Los Angeles.”

Longoria, 35, decided to split from Parker when she discovered hundreds of text he allegedly sent to friend Erin Barry. She is the wife of NBA ex-teammate Brent Barry.

“I did not file for divorce in Texas and did not hire divorce attorneys in either Texas or California,” Parker tells Us. “We plan to continue to keep our discussions of this matter private.”

Sources tell TMZ … the divorce between Eva Longoria and Tony Parker was in the works for at least a week before Eva filed, contrary to the story Eva’s people are telling. And Tony denies he ever had sex with an ex-teammate’s wife.

Sources connected with Tony tell TMZ … Tony did indeed have a “sexting relationship” with Erin Barry, the estranged wife of former San Antonio Spur Brent Barry, but it ended months ago. The sources insist, “They never had a physical relationship.”

And sources connected with Tony tell TMZ … Tony and Eva were well aware that the divorce would be filed. We’re told Tony was planning on filing for divorce in San Antonio, Texas because it was more convenient, but, “Eva talked him out of it because she wanted to file in Los Angeles.”

Sources also tell us — contrary to the statement Eva’s rep made to TMZ — Eva not only knew she was filing for divorce, but it was timed to coincide with the Us Weekly interview.

As for why Tony and Eva are telling different stories about the divorce, a close friend of Tony’s says it’s simple: “She was into the whole PR thing. He wasn’t.”

Eva’s people say Tony’s story is untrue … with one source telling TMZ, “Eva and Tony were still talking about working out the marriage up until the morning she filed.”

Eva’s side of the story is so unbelievable! I bet Tony wanted out!

A source close to Parker confirms rumors that the NBA star had sent numerous text messages to his former San Antonio Spurs teammate Brent Barry’s wife, Erin Barry (pictured above), but that the two had NOT shared a romantic relationship.

According to the source, the Barrys have been close friends with Longoria and Parker for some time, even spending New Year’s Eve together a couple of years ago at Longoria’s Los Angeles restaurant, Beso. The Barrys are currently in the midst of a divorce and, our source adds, Parker and Erin’s texts involved the two leaning on each other as their respective marriages went through troubles. A seemingly innocent exchange between close friends, it would seem, but Longoria appears to be prone to jealousy in her marriage to Parker.

One interesting note, Parker recently signed a four-year, $45 million extension with the Spurs. Eva waited til after that deal was signed to file for divorce.

Whatever the motive might have been, our source stresses that Parker and Longoria’s split is amicable.

Meanwhile, the Desperate Housewives has opened up about the divorce to her good friend Mario Lopez, who tells Extra! that rumors of Parker’s cheating indeed weigh heavily on Longoria’s mind:

“Eva wants everyone to know, she’s devastated by the rumors of Tony’s infidelity. She loved her husband and is heartbroken about their split. But she’s strong.”

Longoria, who married Parker in 2007, filed for divorce in Los Angeles on Wednesday. Earlier today, she acknowledged the split, tweeting,

“It is with great sadness that after 7 years together, Tony and I have decided to divorce. We love each other deeply and pray for each other’s happiness.”

What I want to know – is why deny, deny, deny – then 24 hours later, fess up! Maybe instead of denying it yesterday, she should have just kept quiet!

This was yesterday:

Longoria’s rep told E! in an email that the report “is 100% false, Tony did NOT file for divorce from Eva.”

Fast forward to today. Eva Tweets:

“It is with great sadness that after 7 years together, Tony and I have decided to divorce. We love each other deeply and pray for each other’s happiness.”

What happened with this happy couple? Rumor has it he cheated on her with another NBA wife. Longoria allegedly found hundreds of text messages on his cell phone to one of his San Antonio Spurs teammates’ wives, proving he had been unfaithful.

And the actress is said to have confirmed the claims to BFF Mario Lopez.

Nov. 16, 2010: Eva suddenly pulls out of CNN’s Heroes event with no explanation. That same day, TMZ reports Tony has filed for divorce in Texas. They later retract the story, and Eva’s rep tells E! the report is “100 percent false”.

Nov. 17, 2010: The very next day, Eva is one to pull the trigger on the divorce, filing in L.A. and citing irreconcilable differences. Eva confirms the sad news via Twitter and tells her friend Mario Lopez that the split was due to cheating—between Tony and a mutual friend and fellow NBA wife. Eva is “heartbroken,” a source tells E!, and Tony is “begging for forgiveness.”

Cue the obvious poll. Could you forgive your cheating husband?

Three years after a storybook wedding in a European castle, Eva Longoria filed for divorce Wednesday from basketball star Tony Parker, a source tells PEOPLE.

The Desperate Housewives star’s documents were filed in Los Angeles Superior Court just one day after her rep denied that Parker had done the same in a Texas court.

Longoria, 35, and Parker, 27, were engaged in November 2006, then wed – as fireworks lit up the sky – on July 7, 2007, at Chateau of Vaux le Vicomte, a 17th Century castle on the outskirts of Paris one day after a small civil service. The double wedding celebrating came after a week of partying in Saint-Tropez, France.

In 2008, one year after their lavish wedding, the Desperate Housewives star was plagued by pregnancy rumors, though she, Parker and her costars repeatedly denied them. (more…)
