The Untold Truth Of Jane The Virgin

Posted by Almeda Bohannan on Monday, May 6, 2024

While many characters on Jane the Virgin are lovable, Esteban Santiago is not. Rogelio's archnemesis, this rival telenovela star only ever seems to stir up trouble and find a way to insert himself into Rogelio and Xiomara's life. Many fans don't like him, and that's perfectly normal. Understandable, even.

So, what you are about to hear may throw you for a loop: Esteban is actually a decent guy. Or, to be more accurate, his real-life counterpart, actor Keller Wortham, is. How decent, you ask? Well, when he isn't acting, he's a practicing physician.

"So I went to medical school at Georgetown University in Washington, D.C., I did my residency in internal medicine in Pittsburgh, and then moved to LA to pursue an acting career, or as my parents said, to enjoy the circus," Wortham told Talk Nerdy With Us. "And it was really that desire to get back to a creative and performing life that I was missing so much." 

Feeling faint all of a sudden? Well, if you live near Glendale, Calif., you can book an appointment with Dr. Wortham to get yourself all checked out.
