The character of Jesús has been the main antagonist of the series. His tragic ending came after a struggle with Digna, played by Ana Fernández. In a high-tension scene, the character died in an accident.

This plot twist has led the actor to talk about his departure. Invited to the show Now, Sonsoles, Hernández has shared his feelings. He has acknowledged the emotional intensity that this role has entailed.

The actor has described the filming of his death as a tough moment. "There have been many hours with Jesús, talking to him and understanding him," he stated. Despite his evil side, he tried to give him humanity.

Hernández has reflected on the burden of playing a villain. "When you live a role so much, you carry part of that negativity with you," he admitted. On the street, people recognized him for his performance.

The actor has explained that his departure was already planned. He signed a contract for only one season and a year of work. "This type of series requires a lot of sacrifice," he noted.

But the main reason for his departure is personal. "It was hard for me to see my children only on weekends," he confessed. He decided to prioritize his family and spend more time with them.

Hernández wants to be responsible with his role as a father. "If I wanted to have children, I want to be present in their lives," he commented. He knows that the decision involved job uncertainty.
