Fernando Tejero became one of the most beloved actors in our country when, more than two decades ago, he played the character of the goalkeeper Emilio in the legendary Antena 3 series No one lives here.
Despite being one of the most famous artists in Spain and having had a career that thousands of people dream of every day, Tejero has always been very discreet when it comes to his personal life, which is why he has always kept the distance from the media and public life.
Throughout his vast career, we have been able to see how the actor has participated in all kinds of projects, both in theater and on film and television. Films such as Días de fútbol, Modelo 77 or Fuera de carta, series such as La que se avecina, Periodistas or El Continental and programs such as Masterchef Celebrity or Mask Singer have established him as one of the greatest artists of our generation.
During his more than 20 years of fame, Tejero has starred in some love scandals and has made some controversial statements that have been kept forever in gossip magazines and programs, but not much is known about his family and personal life.
A few days ago, news came to light that the general public was unaware of: Fernando Tejero has a brother-in-law who fights and who is identical to him. This is José María Tejero, who has worked for years as a banderillero in the gangs of great figures in the world of bullfighting such as Morante de la Puebla, Manuel Benítez (El Cordobés) or Enrique Ponce.
Despite the fact that he was a member of Vox for years, José María Tejero appeared in the last municipal elections as the head of the list of a new independent party called 'Libres'. On said platform, Tejero occupies the position of national vice president. The extorero's right-wing ideology directly collides with the progressive ideas of his brother, but both have acknowledged "respecting and loving each other" above political colors.
Another of the points where the relatives do not agree is in the love of bullfighting. While many members of his family love this discipline, the Suicide Club actor disagrees with animal abuse, although he respects the profession of bullfighters.
After starting out in the world of politics with the Green Party, Tejero decided to leave the right-wing formation because he believed that the ideals and values he defended no longer represented him. ''There was an internal drift that was formed in the party and that does not resemble the founding principles of Vox at all,'' he informed the press.
Defender of the unity of Spain, tradition and of the State Security Forces and Corps, the politician is clear that with his party he can make our country the great nation we deserve.
