Jose Eduardo is one of the twin sons of the actor from his first wife, Mexican actress Itatí Cantoral. He uses his second name and has followed in his father's footsteps by pursuing a career in the entertainment industry.
He was born in 2000 and made his acting debut in 2018 when he played the role of Plutarco in "José José: El príncipe de la canción," alongside his mother. Unlike other Mexican actors like Diego Calva, Jose's love life is private.
According to his Instagram page, he travels a lot. According to his bio, he is an "ambassador for the voice of the voiceless and unrepresented stories." He is also studying at the London Academy of Music & Dramatic Art.
Roberto Miguel Santamarina Cantoral Is a Soccer Player
Roberto Miguel is the second twin son of his father, and he has tried to be an actor. He acted alongside his mother and twin brother in the 2018 series, "José José: El príncipe de la canción."
However, he gave up acting and became an athlete. He is now a soccer player for Radford's University Highlanders in Virginia and hopes to play in the Big South Conference.
Additionally, he will study engineering physics while playing soccer for the university's men's team. He is also in a relationship with blogger Zaire Renata, and they celebrated their third anniversary in January 2023.
Roberto and his brother are not the only children of their parents, as they have two younger sisters. Their mother revealed she was expecting a baby girl, Maria Itatí, in 2008 with her then-fiancé, Carlos Alberto. Their second sister is their father's daughter, Julia.
Julia Santamarina Is Eduardo Santamarina's Only Daughter
Julia Santamarina is the only daughter of her father and his actress wife, Mayrín Villanueva. She was born on July 18, 2009, and was found to have dysplasia, just like Gaten Matarazzo and Marina Pearl LeBlanc.
However, her congenital condition caused her to have surgery every four years after birth until she finished growing. She was one in 50,000 to have been born with the disease, which caused the bones in her left leg not to grow as quickly as those in her right leg, causing a five centimeters difference.
Before she was three, she had her first surgery, and her mother revealed she was a true warrior. The love, care, and support she received from her parents also helped her overcome.

In 2019, Mayrín revealed that Julia was not interested in acting but wanted to be a veterinarian as she loved animals, and they owned several animals in their home.
Her parents had met in 2007 when they starred in "I Love Juan Querendón." Two years later, they tied the knot after her mother's divorce. She is not the only child of her mother, as she has two maternal half-siblings along with her paternal half-brothers.
Her mother was married to actor Jorge Poza, and they welcomed their first child, a daughter, Romina Poza, in 2000 and their second child, a son, Sebastian Poza, in 2003.
