Desperate Housewives Alum Marcia Cross Shares Rare Selfie
Marcia Cross is giving desperate fans a rare apple.
While the Desperate Housewives alum—who starred as Bree Van de Kamp on the hit ABC series—often keeps her social media focused on her career and activism, she shared a close look into her traveling style in a rare selfie.
In a May 28 Instagram post, Marcia could be seen smiling for the camera while in an airplane pod seat. For her flight, the 64-year-old wore black-rimmed glasses paired with a gray-colored bucket hat that featured the word "peace."
"Ok! This flight IS taking off!" she captioned the selfie. "See you soon!! #peace."
Although the Melrose Place star didn't share specifics on where she was headed, many fans expressed their excitement over seeing her soon. After all, Marcia is set to join several of her Desperate Housewives costars, including Nicollete Sheridan, James Denton and Brenda Strong, for The Desperate Con in Paris, France on May 30 and 31.
"Can't wait to see you Marcia. French people love you," one fan wrote, while another commented, "Have a safe flight !!! See you there ! I’m looking forward to meet you dear Marcia !"
And while Marcia and her costars will surely be taking a walk down Wisteria Lane and recalling their time starring in the Emmy-winning series at the fan convention, she previously shut down past speculation about a Desperate Housewives revival.
Marcia reacted to an X (then Twitter) post in 2021 about a rumored series at the time, writing, "News to me!!"

Although Marcia has only had positive things to say about her years playing Bree, she's still waiting for the opportunity to portray an iconic character once again.
“I always assumed that after Desperate Housewives there will be a third act. It has not happened yet," she shared in 2023, per Variety. "That's the double-edged sword of being an 'icon.' Everybody thinks you are that character and by the time they forget about it, you are not on anybody’s list anymore."

According to the You star, she feels that there aren't as many women in their 60s on screen.
"I am at this funny crossroad: I am this incredibly ripe human and yet Hollywood is not particularly interested," she explained. "We are tackling LGBTQ+ issues, although there is still a long way to go, we are talking about people of color, but–and I hate to say it–we don’t love to see older women. We were 40-year-old women doing DH and that was a big deal. Now, I want to see 60-year-old women."
Read on to see what Marcia's Desperate Housewives costars are up to now.

Part of the original cast, Sheridan's Edie Britt was killed off the series during its fifth season after alleged escalating tensions between her and Cherry that ultimately resulted in a $20 million lawsuit against the producer and ABC Television—with the actress claiming wrongful termination, assault and battery, gender violence, discrimination based on sex, sexual orientation, and age, and intentional infliction of emotional distress. The show's four other female leads vowed to support Cherry, and the original trial was deemed a mistrial, with Sheridan's attempts at an appeal denied.
Since leaving the series, she's starred in a trio of Hallmark films and briefly joined the cast of The CW's Dynasty as the iconic Alexis Carrington before departing 15 episodes into the show's second season.

De La Garza has gotten candid about the hate she received over her appearance while on Desperate Housewives, which she said led her to develop an eating disorder.
"I would spend hours and hours reading comments," she recalled on a 2023 episode of the Heart of the Matter podcast. "They said things like they wanted me to die because of what I looked like. It was like, 'Ugly fat cow. And I hope you get cancer and die because you're so fat.' And just horrible, horrible, horrible, horrible things. And this is when I was 6, 7, 8 years old."
"My first memories of trying to starve myself, I was 7 years old," she continued. "A lot of it came from reading those comments. My family had no idea that this was going on. My mom had no idea that I was seeing these things, that I was reading these things, because I was very, very sneaky about it."
In September 2024, she announced she's expecting a baby with Ryan Mitchell. Sadly, the child, a daughter named Xiomara, died later that month after being delivered via an emergency C-section, the actress said the following October.
