Jesús Castro has confirmed he is back together with Camila Canto, the mother of his twins, after a highly publicized breakup. The actor discusses the challenges of fatherhood, his career in Mexico, and why his partner remains abroad.
Jesús Castro didn’t hesitate when asked about his relationship: he and Camila Canto, mother of his twins, are together again. After months of rumors and a very public split, Castro has confirmed that they’re giving their family another try, determined to move forward despite the turbulence that nearly ended things.
Just a few months ago, Canto had announced on social media that their relationship was "one hundred percent over." At the time, she said her focus was on her newborn twins, Mateo and Martina, and on her own recovery. "My priority is my babies, myself, healing many wounds, forgiving, working on my mental and emotional health," she wrote, making it clear that reconciliation wasn’t on the table then.
According to La Vanguardia, Camila Canto is currently living in Mexico, and the family is preparing for her and the twins to move to Spain once the paperwork is sorted.
But co-parenting two infants proved stronger than any separation. By early September, Castro appeared on his Twitch channel, visibly emotional, to share that he and Canto had reunited. "Yes, we have resumed the relationship. We are betting again on what we once did—to create a united family, to take care of the four of us," he said. For Castro, the decision was about more than romance: "She is the woman of my life. We decided to have children together, and I am sure we will make this work."
Behind the scenes, Castro’s personal life has been as unpredictable as his career. He shot to fame in 2014 with El Niño and quickly became one of Spain’s most recognizable actors. But the momentum faded. Despite starring in Mar de plástico and La isla mínima, the Spanish film industry’s attention moved on, and Castro found himself facing the same uncertainty that many actors do. "The phone eventually stopped ringing," he said in a recent TV interview, reflecting on how quickly early success can disappear.
Not willing to wait for new roles in Spain, Castro moved to Latin America, specifically Mexico, and started over. "I am not one to throw in the towel," he said, describing the industry as a "rollercoaster" where resilience is essential. In Mexico, he found new work and met Canto, a model eight years younger. Their relationship began during this period of professional reinvention and soon became central to his life.
Several sources, including russpain.com, note that while Castro has publicly confirmed the reconciliation, independent verification remains cautious, with the most reliable recent reference being his interview on Antena 3's 'Y ahora Sonsoles,' where he discussed his personal and professional situation but did not explicitly confirm the reunion on air.
Fatherhood arrived in March, bringing both happiness and upheaval. Castro described the birth of his twins as the best moment of his life, praised Canto’s strength, and promised to care for his family. But the pressures of new parenthood and an international career soon exposed cracks in their relationship. Their split in July was as public as their reunion, with both sharing their struggles openly.
Now, Castro is open about the challenges he faces. On Y ahora Sonsoles, he spoke about the shock of sudden fame, the reality of professional droughts, and how becoming a parent changed him. "I have little left of the child I was—now I am almost entirely a father," he said, acknowledging how quickly life can shift.
As for Canto’s continued stay in Mexico, Castro has explained that their family’s situation requires flexibility. With his career still based in Latin America and their children so young, the couple is managing a cross-continental life that demands compromise and patience. Castro’s willingness to talk about these difficulties is unusual in a celebrity world that often prefers polished stories over uncomfortable realities.
Castro’s story is one of persistence, both at work and at home. He hasn’t let the Spanish industry’s indifference define him, and he’s not letting a single crisis decide his family’s future. The decision to reconcile with Canto isn’t a fairy-tale ending, but a practical choice to fight for what matters. In a world where public figures often hide their setbacks, Castro’s openness stands out. His story is less about flawless success and more about the ongoing work of building a life—on screen and off—when things don’t go as planned.
