Gay actors Toni Gelabert and Santi Talledo fell in love while playing a couple on the telenovela Argentina, tierra de amor y venganza. You hear about straight actors falling in love while filming all the time, but never gay actors. Is this the first time? Either way, they make a beautiful couple.

Brazilian actors Bruno Fagundes and Igor Fernandez also fell in love while filming the telenovela "Cara e Coragem". They don't play a couple in it, though.

R3 I had no idea it has happened before! OMG! I think what makes this so special is that they play gay and a couple on the show too. It's art imitating life. Well, they don't play the main couple (that's Tato and Toni), but Santi is a love interest. He has only been in a few episodes. I expect the relationship on the show to evolve, the telenovela has only aired 3 episodes, out of a total like 100. I added their most recent scenes (in Spanish).

All Latinos are hypersexual whores. They're hot and love having sex. It's what they were made for and what they do best.

This has made the news now and several news outlets have picked it up. I made a mistake reading the facebook comments. The majority of the comments are homophobic. And I thought Argentina was progressive. Apparently not.

Maybe the homophobes should worry more about Argentina's 100 % inflation rate (one of the worst in the world) instead of two men loving each other.

That’s nice that they’ve found each other and are in love. Good for them. However, their story is just another example of how easy it is to find love when you’re young and hot and have a successful career. This is why I have always been so lukewarm on gay marriage. That’s nice that people can now marry their same-sex partners; but if you have no partner, which a lot of gay men don’t for one reason or another, then the whole thing is kind of bittersweet.

They have quite a big age difference, 11 years. Santi is 33 while Toni is 22. They're also from different countries, Santi is from Argentina and Toni is from Spain. I guess they make it work though because they have been together for more than a year already. They started dating in january 2022, they were practicing their scenes together and the rest is history.

R20, the difference between Argentina and Spain is like the difference between Germany and Austria or England and Scotland. Also, age difference means less in gay relationships.

Whatever you do, don't read the Facebook comments about their relationship. I'm not exaggerating when I say at least 90 % are homophobic. I thought Argentinians were progressie, but apparently not. I wonder if that's why the show is struggling with viewership too. Maybe people tune out because of the gay storyline.

Many Argentine and Spanish actors and directors work in both country's industries.
They are expert at changing their accents accordingly.

R25 In the beginning here he speaks with an Argentine accent. It's quite good imo. Then the story had him shipped off to Spain, and that's how they explain him coming back to Buenos Aires with a Spanish accent a few years later, lol.

R29 I was very confused about Toni before he came out. On the one hand he follows a ton of gay instawhores, gay models and gay actors, like Sam Cushing, RJ King etc. On the other hand there's a pic from 2019 where he seems close to a girl, like more than friends. She doesn't look like just a hag, if thay makes sense. He also has no couple pics, all the couple pics in the news are taken from Santi's insta. I wonder if Toni was afraid to come out, or didn't want to ruin his career, idk. My point is that I got very confused about his sexuality. I still sorta am. He is obviously into men, but is he bi or gay? He doesn't even ping (but my gaydar goes faulty with Spanish men). His boyfriend Santi pings though, so I'm not surprised he's gay.

This is interesting. Santi talks about how he instantly fell in love with Toni, from the first video chat they had after Toni was hired, while Toni was still in Mallorca. He wanted to follow him on insta, but apparently he didn't have one at the time (he had deleted it because he rarely used it), so Santi had to ask for his number from one of the casting directors. Apparently it wasn't instant from Toni, who at first didn't want to be with him. Santi said he had to try to flirt, he would be devastated if he didn't get him, and told Toni to be single before he left for Buenos Aires. Apparently it worked because Toni changed his mind and they did indeed end up together. They've been together for more than a year now.

After reading that article in R35 I realized I got everything wrong. Fml. This is what happens when stuff gets lost in translation. Santi was instantly attracted to Toni and they did kiss when rehearsing their scenes, but they didn't actually start dating until almost a year later. They were both attracted to each other, but Toni came from a bad breakup, and he didn't want to get into a relationship while filming because he was scared what would happen if they broke up and still had to film scenes together. They didn't actually start dating until December 2022, after filming had ended.

That must have been so awkward, to win the prize for best couple, with both liking each other, but not actually being together. Santi must have been in pain, because he actually fell in love the first time he laid his eyes on Toni. Good thing then that Toni finally gave in at the wrap party.

One more thing: I thought Toni might be bi, but he basically confirms he is gay. He said he was more attracted to guys than girls growing up, but that he was conditioned to heterosexuality. He kissed a guy for the first time at 15, and they stayed friends, but then he kissed another guy who basically outed him in a tweet. Yikes! I feel like I can relate more to Santi though, being alone for a long time, having older parents who don't really accept you right away, because they're from a different generation etc. It's obvious Santi and I are from the same generation, we're both Millennials.

This part is wrong too. Sorry. A lot gets lost in translation. He DIDN'T want to ask for his number, so he stayed silent until Toni messaged him. OK, I'll shut up now since I get everything wrong. I just wanted to clear that up.
