Canadian actor Brett Dier, 26, visited Angel this week. He was with a young woman who showed him a Desigual guitar T-shirt.
“You love guitars,” she said to him.
“I love turtles,” he replied.
We started chatting and I found out Brett was a Canadian actor living in Los Angeles. He said it was great to return to Canada and see the country from a fresh perspective. I asked him if he had any big roles recently.
“I’m the husband of Jane the Virgin,” he said.
“Jane got married?” I asked, having watched the show but missed the wedding.
“Well, you’ll have to watch and find out,” he said, laughing. Oh, but there’s YouTube:
Jane the Virgin is a comedy/drama TV series based on a Venezuela telenovela Juana la Virgen. Jane is played by Gina Rodriguez, a young Catholic woman who is accidentally artificially inseminated during a mix-up examination by her doctor. Brett plays police detective Michael Cordero. …………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………….
