Who is Jimena?

Sandra Echevarria plays the lead character, Jimena, in The Manny. In the series, Jimena struggles to balance her professional career and parenthood in her daily life. She also tries to succeed in her family business while being the best mother to her three children. She has a new job, her husband has divorced her, and she is now at a crossroads, dealing with several duties that can be daunting at times.

The Manny traces the story of Jimena, who is slowly warmed to Gabriel and brings her ideas about love and relationships to the table. Echevarria is the actor who performed in La Usurpadora, Sonaras, and Maria Felix: La Dona.


Gabriel's charming presence

One of the best performances comes from Ivan Amozurrutia, who plays Gabriel, the titular character. He makes his way to Jimena's doorstep in The Manny dressed as a cowboy. Gabriel is a gorgeous rancher who is unexpectedly offered the chance to become the ideal babysitter for Jimena's three children. His easy nature and genuine care quickly win the children's trust.

The Manny highlighted how Gabriel's presence in the family alters the family structure while also causing sexual tension with Jimena. Amozurrutia also displays that he is a good comedian in the role, as he is both humorous and charming in every scene.
