Juan Soler

Born in January 19th 1966, Juan Soler Valls-Quiroga is one of the Argentinian actors that has been successful in following Saul Lizaso's foot steps. In fact, he was acting side by side with Saul in Bajo Un Mismo Rostro and Acapulco, Cuerpo y Alma; both in 1995. Just like Saul, Juan Soler whose height is 1.82 metres (6'1") was once an athelete. When he was still 14 years old, Juan Soler represented his country in swimming in Juegos Sudamericanos (a kind of Latin version of Asian Games). A year afterwards, he became a rugby athelete and helped his team in competing against Australian, British, Italian, and Russian teams. Sport was still his world until he turned 21. 

This motorcycle lover then moved on to modelling and acting world. By luck, he got minor roles in Argentinian acting world. Feeling that he wouldn't be successful in his own country, Juan Soler took a big step. He decided to move to Mexico in 1991, the telenovelas' 'Hollywood'. Realizing that it wouldn't be easy, he prepared himself in 3 years by taking up acting class and learning how to change his accent. 

Looking back, Juan Soler almost died twice. The first one when he was still 9 years old kid. Juan Soler almost died, falling down from 3rd floor when he was playing near the window. Luckily he was saved by bushes.  The second time happened a year before he trie dhis luck in Mexico.  At that time, he was riding his motorcycle 120km/hour from Mexico to Acapulco. WIth his adeptness, he managed to avoid major wounds. He indeed often has bike accident; 5 times. 

In 1995, Televisa offered him contract to act with Saul Lizaso. Juan, of course, took it, and it was his debut in Mexican telenovela. But the public still hadn't recognized him, not until he acted in Canaveral de Pasiones in the following year. But it was Angela that lifted up his name. Afterwards, Juan Soler got the ooportunity to go to Peru and acted as Coraima Torres' boyfriend in Maria Emilia: Querida. He admitted that he was amazed with his own character in that telenovela, Alejandro Aguirre. Both of them don't liek to get tied to a woman, but they both like to collect women. Whle shooting Acapulco, Curpo y Alma, Juan dated one of the actresses, Karla Alvarez. A year later, rumours said that Juan was madly in love with Aracely Arambula. Several times, they were caught kissing each other. While acting in Pueblo Chico, Infierno Grande, Adriana Fonseca fell into his arms. Marsol Santacruz said that Juan was her lover, but Juan denied it. Other Juan's girlfriend was Edna Robledo, a ballet dancer.  

But there was one incident that had smeared his image. When he hadn't obtained the successfullness he wanted in Mexico, he came back to his hometown in ARgentina, Tucuman. There he fell in love witha  girl named Karina. Juan then went back to Mexico without knowing that Karina was pregnant. Two years later, Juan returned to visit his family. At that time, he knew that he has a daughter named Valentina.
