Huffman praises personal trainer

Felicity Huffman has described her personal trainer as a "Godsend".

The Desperate Housewives actress told More that Kirsten Holtgreen is the first of her many trainers to ask her to put on weight.

She explained: "They [were] always like, 'Oh my god, you ate a muffin?' and 'What do you mean you weigh 125 pounds? You can't shoot at that weight.'

"She's the first trainer who's said, 'You're not eating enough'."

The fifth season of Desperate Housewives will debut in the US on September 28, then air in the UK on Channel 4 in January 2009.
