There was a time when Pablo Chiapella (44) wanted to be a physical education teacher, but his childhood friend Ernesto Sevilla (42) convinced him to try his luck as an actor.

So

left Albacete, wrapped the blanket over his head and went to Madrid with the thought that by trying he would not lose anything.

But he had an ace up his sleeve since he had set up a business called El zoco del Botellón, where he earned almost a million pesetas (6,000 euros), which allowed him to live comfortably for some time.

His first foray as a successful actor was in

(2002-2006), for which Ernesto had been hired, and later in

(2007-2010).

While waiting for more opportunities to emerge, Pablo did not lose his rings when he had to work as a waiter or as a

He currently plays Amador, one of the most beloved characters in 'La que se avecina'.

The performance changed his life forever.

He's gotten fame, he's made a lot of money, and most important of all, he's gotten love.

He met

almost 20 years ago and, since 2007, they have both worked together on 'La que se avecina'.

She is one of the stylists of the series and with whom she has had her most precious asset, her daughter Valentina (5).

The actor is a real hottie.

He does not mind throwing himself on the ground to play with her, accompany her to the beach for fun in the sand or help her with her homework.

On some occasion she has confessed that "I am learning every day, wanting to get to know her more every day and to help her in whatever way I can."

In privacy, he is a big boy.

When he wants to disconnect from work, he loves to get hooked on video games.

In those moments the world stops and nobody exists for it.

He also likes to drive while listening to the greatest hits of the Bee Gees, David Bowie or classical music, a passion he has inherited from

And two things that drive him crazy, his mother's paella, which she cooks to perfection (rice, chicken, beans, rabbit, broth and a good socarrat) and the organic eggs from his brother's chickens.

He is a faithful defender of the rights of animals

, especially dogs, has a great ecological awareness and plays sports to feel good about himself and connect with his mind.

The actor visits

this Monday

to promote his new show,

where he is accompanied by Fran Pati and Tian Lara.
