The story of the innocent, young virgin who gets pregnant from a medical error hooked millions with its clever premise and excellent Latino cast. We all feel like we are a part of the "Villanueva" family and of course, we love the adorable grandmother Alba, played by the great Ivonne Coll. Let's find out more about her!
Jane the Virgin: Did you know that Ivonne Coll was Miss Puerto Rico?
Ivonne Coll rose to fame after being crowned Miss Puerto Rico in 1967! Her beauty, talent, and great personality led her to the world of acting with her participation in the iconic Francis Ford Coppola film, The Godfather II, one of his greatest achievements.
Some of her most memorable projects include Lean on Me, Switched at Birth, Teen Wolf, and The Young and the Restless.
In 2019, she decided to step away from the cameras to retire in her native home of Puerto Rico, but luckily we still were able to catch her in a few episodes of Lucifer. We definitely hope we get to see more of her because she is such a delight to see perform!
