Why the romance of Ana Layevska and Rafael Amaya ended

The actress of Ukrainian descent recalled her engagement in 2006 with the actor from “The Lord of the Skies”

It was more than 15 years ago when Ana Layevska and Rafael Amaya shot her heart and formed one of the most attractive couples to emerge from the world of Mexican soap operas. And it is that after their participation in the melodrama The two faces of Ana , which they starred in 2006, both actors consolidated a dating relationship that lasted just over four years.

Now, the actress of Ukrainian origin shared her memories around that romance that, she says, was the first formal one she had after dating other young people, but in a more relaxed way.

In full promotion of War of Neighbors , a series for Netflix with which the 39-year-old actress will return to the small screen, Layevska shared in an interview with the journalist Mara Patricia Castañeda on her YouTube channel some details of why the relationship with the former Garibaldi Born in Hermosillo, Sonora, came to an end in 2010.

“Rafael was my first official boyfriend in life. I had my boyfriends there, you know ‘well I liked this one and right now we’re going out’ (…) My first, first boyfriend is an actor named Cristián Seri and we did together a telenovela called Game of Life , that He was my first, first boyfriend, we lasted a little bit. Then I had a very long pause of attempts, until Rafa arrived ”, commented the actress, who when she began her relationship with the protagonist of The Lord of the Skies was 24 years old and he was 29.

“We were very different. I think the relationship gave of itself. We look for different things. I wanted a different kind of … he went to work in Spain, I wanted to go to work in the United States, that is, our paths separated, ”the actress recognized in telenovelas such as Verano de amor and Primer amor a 1000 x hour .

But it was not infidelity or some trick between the two celebrities that separated them, but rather an incompatibility in their future professional projection , as well as “very different” personalities.

“We loved each other very much, we got along very well, but (we were going down) different paths, different needs . Then we finished and my next boyfriend is my husband, ”said the actress, who married businessman Rodrigo Moreira in 2014. It was in 2017 when they procreated their daughter Masha, and in 2020 when Santiago, their second son, was born.

A few days ago, the actress told how she has had to deal with rejection, as she considers it a constant in the actor’s career. she also said she was aware that many times the stories have characters that must be embodied by actors with a certain physiognomy and other characteristics, which is why it is “impossible” to obtain certain roles.

“We practically deal with rejection every day, it is not something personal and I understand it that way, even great actors are rejected, ” she told UnoTV . The actress, who has worked mostly in Televisa, has not ventured much into Mexican cinema, this derived because some directors consider her “too güerita.”

“In cinema it has happened to me that I have not stayed with some characters because of my type . ” Regarding the stereotypes and traits outlined in the characters and their actors, Ana ventures into the HBO series The girl who cleans , where she gives life to a woman of high society, a former model and with an apparently perfect life.

“My character is taken to the extreme, she meets all the defects that a high society woman can have and handles double standards, she usually turns a blind eye to her partner’s business until she begins to fear for his own life,” she said.
