Octavi Pujades is one of the most popular actors in our country. And although the Catalan began studying medicine at the Autonomous University of Barcelona, shortly afterward he realized that his true vocation was in the world of acting, so he decided to abandon his medical studies.
Since then, the 48-year-old performer has managed to carve out an extensive career on stage, where we have been able to see him in numerous plays and musicals. He has also participated in successful series such as Al leaving class, El authentic Rodrigo Leal, Lalola or the most recent Acacias 38.
But the actor also managed to win the hearts of many people thanks to the content he published on his social networks during the pandemic. Pujalde shared a multitude of funny videos, with the purpose of making confinement more bearable. But the interpreter did not appear only in those small fragments. His father, Joan Pujades, became the main protagonist, earning the affection of many of his followers.
Therefore, when the actor announced in February 2022 the death of his father at the age of 92 after suffering a long illness, thousands of users wanted to give him all their support through social networks.
Now, more than a year and a half later, the interpreter of Leaving Class wanted to make a beautiful gesture with the person who took care of his father until the last moment. ''This is a post dedicated to Fernando. As those of you who have been here for a while know, he came to this family at a very difficult time for us, and we got ahead thanks to him,' he began by saying on his Instagram profile.
''With his education, his kindness, his dedication and his good work, he won over the patriarch from the first moment (not an easy thing, eh? He had his character). To him, and to everyone. He took care of him, attended to him, contributed to dignifying the last period of my father's life, and that is worth his weight in his gold. The other day he was in Cerdanyola to pay his respects to his beloved patriarch in the cemetery, and we are maintaining contact,' he assured.
''Right now Fernando is looking for work. Previously, references were requested from previous employers, and I give Fernando the best ones from here, since he is an impeccable worker and a good person. If you need someone to take care of a loved one, send them a direct message to their profile, @fernandoserrudo, '' the actor concluded.
