"Eva Longoria Parker has revealed that she is &amp;quot;confused&amp;quot; about the cause of the rift between Desperate Housewives&amp;#039;s Nicolette Sheridan and the show&amp;#039;s creator Marc Cherry. The star said that although she knew relations were frosty between the pair, she is yet to get to the bottom of why co-star Sheridan is suing Cherry for $20 million (\u00C2\u00A312.5 million) over an alleged assault on set. Longoria Parker said that the scandal seemed odd as both Sheridan and Cherry are &amp;quot;sweet&amp;quot; people at heart. Speaking to Ryan Seacrest on his KIIS FM radio show today, she said of the supposed attack: &amp;quot;Have you met Marc Cherry? He&amp;#039;s funny and sweet and probably could not harm a fly. &amp;quot;I know they did have a thing on set, I guess it was a couple of years ago, I wasn&amp;#039;t on set when it happened, but apparently this incident had happened and she felt it was wrong. I am trying to get the dirt here on set but no one&amp;#039;s allowed to talk about it. Something happened on set regarding them doing a scene. He was showing her how to do a scene. &amp;quot;During that time, I didn&amp;#039;t work with Nicollette&amp;#039;s character. Nicollette&amp;#039;s a sweet girl too; I&amp;#039;m really confused about this whole thing. I haven&amp;#039;t talked to her since she left the show, but we used to be really friendly. I would love to see her, to find out if everything&amp;#039;s okay.&amp;quot; She also voiced fears that the scandal surrounding the lawsuit may have a negative impact on the show&amp;#039;s future: &amp;quot;It&amp;#039;s a big lawsuit. It&amp;#039;s a big deal. I love the show so much that I would hate for anything to really tarnish the reputation of the show. I really would like all of it to go away.&amp;quot; &amp;gt; &amp;#039;Housewives&amp;#039; crew &amp;#039;doubt Sheridan claim&amp;#039; "^^<http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema#string>
