Jorge Daniel Pardo, who is also known as JD Pardo, has been making headlines for his incredible performance in Mayans. M.C. Padro portrays the character of Ezekiel ‘EZ’ Reyes in the FX series. Fans are absolutely loving the latest instalment of the series, especially the portrayal of the antagonist. They just can’t seem to get enough of the bad guy! Despite the actor’s reserved nature, people are still curious about his personal life with his wife and children.
JD Padro’s wife
According to Cinemaholic, Padró is currently married to Emily Frlekin and they live together in Los Angeles. They got married in 2010 and have been together ever since. Fans have had suspicions about his sexual orientation for quite some time, especially after his portrayal of Eddie Araujo in A Girl Like Me: The Gwen Araujo Story. However, after he married Frlekin, the rumors stopped circulating.
According to the website, Padró’s wife is a graduate of UC Berkeley with a degree in English literature. She currently works as a project manager at The Black Card Circle Foundation.
Franklin’s organization is a non-profit public charity that aims to improve the overall quality of human life. Their main focus is to raise awareness and provide financial support for various areas such as education, the environment, healthcare, poverty alleviation, and global development. According to Cinemaholic, Padró’s wife has a fondness for travelling, as mentioned in her old travel blog that she maintained until 2011. We don’t have much information about the actor’s marriage or love story because they prefer to keep their personal life private. They have never shared any details about their relationship. Padro is quite private when it comes to sharing details about his spouse on social media. However, he is more open and comfortable discussing his children.
JD Padro on Parenting His Children
Padro and his wife have two children. He had his first daughter in 2017, and his second son in 2021. The actor frequently shares photos on Instagram featuring his son and daughter, but he has chosen not to reveal their names. In June, the actor celebrated Father’s Day by sharing a heartwarming video of himself having fun with his children. In his post, he mentioned feeling extremely tired, but his children didn’t understand.
They felt a sense of relief when their father finally came back home. He continued by expressing that he believed there was nothing more valuable or important than this, and he hoped to become a better person and father for his children because of it. He previously talked about parenting in an FX Get to Know You article. When someone asked him what usually made him feel better when he was feeling down, he replied, “My daughter.” It doesn’t matter how difficult things are when you see a child—and she’s two and a half—and they’re looking at things as if they’re not complicated, they’re in the present.”
Because she was able to let go of her feelings when she was young, he claimed that his daughter could snap out of a bad mood just as quickly as she could get into a good one. His daughter would plead with him to pay attention to her, and if he told her, “not now, tomorrow,” she would be dissatisfied. However, as long as he was around, she did not mind at all.
