There was half-Puerto Rican actress, Eva La Rue, who earned a Daytime Emmy for her portrayal of Dr. Maria Santos, whose relationship with the gorgeous Dr. Edmond Grey kept viewers intrigued for more than a decade.

And of course, there was half-Spanish, half-Mexican actor, Mark Consuelos. The handsome actor won a few trophies for his portrayal of Mateo Santos on AMC (including the American Latino Media Arts Award for Outstanding Actor in a Daytime Soap Opera). Consuelos also met his wife Kelly Ripa on the show.
