The actor revealed that the situation his wife went through during childbirth was so dangerous that she was on the brink of death: “Many people tell us: 'Hey, why don't you have another child?', the reason why we didn't have another child was because, when Angélica gave birth to Laura, she was on the verge of dying due to a medical problem and after that, in the case of having another pregnancy, there could be a risk and I did not want to take the risk, I did not want to have another child and run the risk of being left with two children, but without my wife, or losing a child; So, we made the decision not to have another child,” he explained.
Although biologically he will not be able to have more children, the actor does not rule out the possibility of, in the future, adopting or waiting for Laura to make him a grandfather, a facet that fills him with excitement: “Later when Laura grows up and perhaps already undertakes her flight alone, it is a possibility to adopt, as it is also a possibility that we are closer to Laura getting married and having children and spoiling the grandchildren,” he commented with amusement.
