PARIS, FRANCE: Eva Longoria just had the most stylish date for her rare red carpet appearance over the weekend!

The 49-year-old actress walked the red carpet for the 'Global Gift Gala' on Saturday, October 5, at the Four Seasons Hotel George V in Paris with her six-year-old son, Santiago Enrique Baston.

Santiago, or "Santi" (as his mother calls him) was dressed up in a mini tuxedo paired with sneakers and looked adorably dashing while accompanying his gorgeous mother, People reported.

After ‘Desperate Housewives’ alum Eva Longoria walked the red carpet on Saturday holding her son Santiago's hand, fans could not stop gushing about the young boy and said he was looking like a “mini prince.”

Santiago— who is the son of Longoria and her husband of eight years, Jose Antonio "Pepe" Baston—looked dapper in a tiny black tuxedo paired with a button-up shirt. He completed his look with a pair of white sneakers with velcro straps. 

Santiago’s mother, on the other hand, looked drop-dead gorgeous in a silver sequined gown with dazzling cut-out flowers. She styled her hair in a simple middle parting way and left her glossy mane hanging loosely over her shoulders. 

Longoria accessorized with a silver necklace, a chunky bracelet, and a few finger rings. 

The mother and son duo smiled brightly as they posed together on the red carpet. The ‘Land of Women’ star, who held her son’s hand throughout the appearance, at one point cupped his chin lovingly. 

The youngster also appeared to have been recovering from an injury as his left wrist was wrapped in a pink cast. 

Longoria also shared a few snaps from her Global Gala outing, including one where Santiago was seen sharing a bar of chocolate with his mother, on social media.

Santiago reportedly loved the red carpet stint so much that he did not want to leave it. In a video shared by Longoria from the event’s photo call, she shared in the caption, "Santi did not want to leave the red carpet."

The cookbook author recently shared her son’s evolution in an interview with Hoda Kotb on Today, per People.

Sharing that her son was "evolving and changing,” the ‘My Mexican Kitchen’ author gushed, "Oh my God, you know what, I love [that] he’s always with me when I’m working.”

She continued, "If we’re in Spain, we just all go to Spain. If we’re in Rome, we’re all in Rome. And he’s very cultured."

Saying that he is growing up to be a global citizen, the proud mother shared, "I just love how global he’s growing up, and [how he] understands and appreciates other cultures and other languages.”
