Facts from the biography
Eduardo Yáñez Luevano was born in Mexico in the autumn of 1960. His childhood passed in Mexico City, where he lived with his brothers and mother. The boy had never seen his real father. First, the mother brought up the children, and then the stepfather, who was very strict towards them.
In an interview, the actor recalled that he and his brothers had a very difficult childhood. Until my mother got married a second time, they did not have enough money even for the most necessary. With the advent of the stepfather, life was a little better, but the boys did not have a relationship with him. Perhaps the man did not really like children, especially strangers, and at every opportunity he tore his anger at them, constantly punishing them for the slightest misconduct.
