Initially , Latin Lover became a well-known celebrity for Mexican wrestling , being part of Triple A, and also became a participant in the World Wrestling Federation (WWF) as well as Perros del Mal and Consejo Mundial de Lucha Libre (CMLL). ) However, although in the fights he was already well known, his true success occurred when his great physical attributes took him to television where he could be in several telenovelas and Televisa programs where in a short time he became one of the most beloved.

Trajectory and history of Latin Lover

Bailando por un sueño became the program that brought Latin Lover to national television and made it known throughout Mexico as the reality show became one of the most successful on all television. In Dancing for a Dream , which was hosted by the famous Adal Ramones , Latin Lover participated with his dreamer and dance partner Mariana Vallejo; week by week he was proving that he was one of the best and finally he ended up taking the crown, his great success and popularity on television led him to become a much-loved celebrity, so much so that he was invited to be the host of the program ” Move ” with Maribel Guardiaand Juan José Ulloa, a program that was tremendously successful because it managed to be on the air for more than 4 years. Along with his time as a host, he appeared in several novels and series such as ” What a father mother, I am Eva for her, What a beautiful love, La Tempestad and again appeared in two reality dance shows in the First and Second World Dance Championships ”, in the first one again as a participant and winner and in the second one as a jury.

In 2014, the third season of the reality show “Bailando por un Sueño” premiered , this time it was hosted by Adrián Uribe (later replaced by Latin Lover) and Livia Brito . Thursday’s panel was in charge of the singer  Fey , Carlos Baute , Roberto Mitsuko and Bianca Marroquín .

As was customary in “Dancing for a Dream” the dance couple with the best steps was sought to crown them as the winner and thus fulfill the dream of the participant who was not famous. In this season the participants were Fernando Allende, Vanessa Hoppenkothen, Karenka , Eleazar Gómez, Irán Castillo , Zuleyka Rivera, Lenny de la Rosa , Óscar Schwebel, Odalys Ramírez , Raúl Magaña, Héctor Sandarti and María de León who was finally crowned the winner of the third season by showing that she was the best of the entire competition and after beating Karenka and Irán Castillo, the other 2 finalists.

Latin Lover continued with his facet as an actor participating in other soap operas and programs such as “As the saying goes, My husband has a family, Today I am going to change, It had to be you, Bailadísimo, My husband has more family, Life line doctors “, among others.

One of the greatest attributes of Latin Lover has been his buttocks , the buttocks have not only been pimped by many people but also were and continue to be a highly discussed topic by many people who believe that they are implants because apparently “they don’t look real”. so much so that even his own children were affected because they suffered bullying, as the actor commented: “There was a season where my buttocks, my buttocks, were criticized a lot, so to speak, and when his classmates realized that I was the father of my children, because sometimes I went to their school in a soccer tournament or with my daughter who was in the cheerleaders, the children would tell them “your dad is the one they say has had his buttocks operated”.

The success of Latin Lover was devastating because from being a wrestler he went to television and became a much-loved celebrity, however later the work began to dwindle and he finally realized that success on television was very ephemeral because after that he stopped appearing in Televisa’s star programs, people began to forget about him, as he commented at the time: ” I had a program for 5 years, with Maribel Guardia, and how people threw me, how was it possible that I was there without being a host. But I didn’t see that, I said “they’re going to pay me so much to be hosting a program”; and then soap operas, reality shows and many things, everything was so fast that in the blink of an eye it was over “.

After he no longer had many opportunities on television , Latin Lover decided to dedicate himself fully to his chain of gyms “Latin Gym Fitness” with which he has achieved great success as an entrepreneur and is very well positioned within the field throughout Mexico.

Undoubtedly one of Latin Lover ‘s professional successes as an actor would occur in 2018 when he participated in the acclaimed film “Roma” starring Yalitza Aparicio and directed by Alfonso Cuarón playing “Professor Zovek” . His name was Francisco Javier Chapa del Bosque and he was considered the greatest escapist in Mexico who was even compared to the great Harry Houdini. Then at the Oscars where the film was nominated as the best of the year Latin LoverHe was able to parade on the awards carpet, drawing the attention of many and generating envy for other colleagues who, despite having a longer acting career, have never been able to go as far as the former Mexican wrestler.

Latin Lover could not be more grateful for working for such an important filmmaker around the world, so he did not care when they were going to pay him for his character, because what was really remarkable was what that job would mean. “The truth is that I didn’t even care what they were going to pay me, the project was very cool and working with someone of the stature of Cuarón is priceless.”

A few months later, Latin Lover caught the attention of all his fans and followers when he confessed that he was going through a terrible disease called ” muscular polymyositis ” which damages muscle fibers and skin; Although at that time he assured that he was already in better health, it was not the first time that he experienced a condition with his muscles because in 2014 he had already faced another battle against fibromyalgia, a factor for which he could not do exercise. “After the peritonitis happened to me, I have not fully recovered, I am receiving cortisone right now and the side effects are fluid retention, acne, sweating, including weight gain,” he commented in an interview.

In an interview granted in mid-2020, Latin Lover assured that he had decided to stay away from the fights because he did not want to end up dead like many of his former professional colleagues who by then had had fateful outcomes for their lives above the ring. “That’s why I retired, so as not to end up dead, I left that job because the only way I could be at home was being hurt, I feel bad, because there are still people who say that wrestling is a farce and that there is no blows, and unfortunately I keep losing friends, like ‘Perrito Aguayo’, La Parka and ‘Abismo Negro’”. Then, a few months later, Latin Lover informed his followers that he would undergo major surgery, on his knee, this after several years he had been in severe pain due to everything he experienced in his youth in the fights.
