Gay 'Housewives' Have Been Cast

The rumors about David Beckham and Robbie Williams playing the gay couple moving in to Wisteria lane in season 4 have finally been put to rest. Instead, the real hunks who will play the gay couple have been revealed.

Desperate Housewives has signed up Tuc Watkins (One Life to Live) and Kevin Rahm (Judging Amy) to play Wisteria Lane's first gay couple. Watkins will play Bob, described as a country mouse who leaves the big city for greener (and quieter) pastures. Rahm is his bitchy partner, Lee. Both roles are of the recurring variety, TVGuide.com reports.

Interestingly, the characters' names are a tribute to ABC News' Bob Woodruff and his wife Lee, whom series creator Marc Cherry befriended last spring.
