Rodolfo Sancho Aguirre (born 14 January 1975) is a Spanish actor. He is best known for his television work in series such as Amar en tiempos revueltos, La Señora, Isabel, and El ministerio del tiempo.[1]

Life and career

Rodolfo Sancho was born on 14 January 1975 in Madrid,[2] son to actor Sancho Gracia and Uruguayan journalist Noela Aguirre Gomensoro.[3][4][5] Adolfo Suárez served as godfather at his baptism.[6] As a child, Sancho featured in acting roles in television series Los desastres de la guerra (age 8) and La huella del crimen (age 10).[7]

In 1994, Sancho had one son (Daniel) with actress Silvia Bronchalo when he was 19 years old.[2][8] According to Sancho, previously self-described as a "golfo" ('rascal'), fatherhood made him [a] responsible [person] "all of a sudden".[9]

After 1995, he followed his father's footsteps with a professional acting career, primarily in television.[7] Early work includes small television credits in Curro Jiménez. El regreso de una leyenda, Hermanos de leche, Carmen y familia, Colegio mayor and Turno de oficio: 10 años después.[7] Likewise, Sancho made his feature film debut in Enrique Urbizu's Cachito (1996),[10] followed by small credits in Taxi (1996), Dying of Laughter (1999), and La comunidad (2000), in which he played a real estate agent.[11]

Sancho gained early notoriety for his portrayal of Nicolás Medina Prieto "Nico" in 516 episodes of the teen drama series Al salir de clase from 1997 to 1999, thereby consolidating his television career.[7][12]

He worked alongside Javier Florrieta (Pacto de brujas), Sigfrid Monleón (La bicicleta) and with Jorge Sánchez-Cabezudo in his directorial debut, La noche de los girasoles.

In 2005, he entered a relationship with Xenia Tostado, with whom he had one daughter (Jimena) in 2015.[8][13]

In 2012, he returned to La 1 for Isabel, a series depicting the life of Isabel I of Castile, portraying Fernando II of Aragón for three seasons before departing for another La 1 series, El Ministerio del Tiempo playing the part of Julián Martínez, a nurse working for SAMUR[14] where he was a series regular for Season 1 and had a recurring role in the second season.

His work on El Ministerio del Tiempo was delayed as he starred as the lead role in Antena 3's Mar de plástico as Héctor.
