He moved to Santiago, DR, at the age of two months.

”My father didn’t meet me until I was two months old,” Hemky said in another interview. ”He didn’t have a Visa at the time, so he was unable to travel to the states. So once we were cleared from the hospital, my mom took me back to the Dominican Republic.”

”I love what we have done with the show,” Madera confessed for MEAWW. He went on to say: ”We’ve taken the characters from the book, and created a show that is fun, sexy, and thrilling in many ways, but always respecting the characters to the core.”
