The 49-year-old Land of Women producer-star held hands with her six-year-old mini-me, whom she coordinated with in blue-denim attire.
Eva covered up her petite 5ft2in figure in a boxy black blazer over a matching top, straight-leg jeans, and black booties selected by stylist Maeve Reilly.
Bastón styled her long hair extensions in waves and she overlined her glossy pout for the animated sequel hitting US theaters this Wednesday and UK theaters this Friday.
The My Mexican Kitchen author raised eyebrows on November 13 when she told Marie Claire she was ‘privileged’ enough to be able to ‘escape’ this ‘dystopian country’ following President Donald Trump’s re-election.
Two days later, Eva – who owns homes in Beverly Hills, Mexico, and Spain – called The View: Behind the Table podcast host Ana Navarro to clarify her remarks.
‘Will you please let them know I didn’t move out of the United States because of Trump?’ Bastón pleaded over speakerphone.
‘I’ve been in Europe for almost three years. That’s in the article, by the way, the article says that. People just grabbed some clickbait stuff to be divisive. Which makes me so sad that everything you say is just meant to be divisive when we can’t be that way right now.’
The Kamala Harris campaigner continued: ‘I didn’t leave because of the political environment. I left because my work took me there. I’m a proud American. I’ve always been a proud American.
‘Proud Texan, proud American. I didn’t want it to be taken that I left because of Trump — absolutely not — or because of the elections.’
Eva flew to California to attend the glitzy 2024 ELLE’s Women in Hollywood event held at the Four Seasons Hotel Los Angeles last Tuesday.
Missing from Bastón’s side on Monday was her third husband – Televisa president José ‘Pepe’ Bastón – whom she’s been married to for eight years.
