Longoria, 43, and her husband, José \"Pepe\" Bastón, 50, welcomed the baby boy Tuesday, saying they were beyond \"grateful.\"

The couple tied the knot in Mexico two years ago, and Santiago has three older siblings, Bastón's children from a previous relationship.

After a deluge of images and audio of crying children calling for relatives, negative reports of conditions at detention centers and widespread, intense backlash, President Trump reversed the controversial policy by signing an executive order. Hundreds of families who were separated at the border after crossing illegally have already been reunited, a source told ABC News.

The Department of Homeland Security has also ceased referring members of families to the Department of Justice to be prosecuted.
