Actor Variel Sánchez, from 'Manes', confessed that he almost gave up acting for love

Variel Sánchez is currently one of the most recognized Colombian actors in the world of entertainment, thanks to the charismatic personality that characterizes him and that has led him to participate in productions such as 'A mano limpio', 'Loquito por ti', 'Manes', among others.

In addition, since February 10, 2025, he has been captivating the attention of viewers with the new version of the soap opera 'Nuevo Rico, Nuevo Pobre' in which he plays the role of 'Brayan Galindo' , a millionaire man who was exchanged in the hospital the day he was born.

In this sense, the Bogotá-born actor, over the years, has focused on working on his career to establish himself as one of the most successful artists in the country, which, in turn, has earned him thousands of followers who admire each project in which he appears.

However, in recent days Sánchez has sparked the curiosity of many Internet users on social media, after confessing that at some point in his life he was willing to abandon his dreams for love.

According to the 35-year-old man, during an interview on the entertainment program 'La Red', one of the ex-partners with whom he shared his youth demanded that he retire from acting in order to continue with the romantic relationship they had.

Despite the complex situation he found himself in, the Colombian mentioned that he was very much in love, so he did not immediately rule out the option of leaving the screens to dedicate himself to something else that would make his girlfriend at the time feel comfortable.

Sanchez said that after considering the woman's request, he did not hesitate to call his manager to inform him that he wanted to anticipate his retirement from television , with the sole purpose of fulfilling the demands that the person had communicated to him.

Faced with this, the artist's representative responded very upset to the news and during a long conversation warned the Bogota native that his career was on the rise , so if he put aside his process it was possible that he would regret it later.

Upon hearing his co-worker's words, Sanchez thought again about all the things he would have to give up for his romantic relationship, and realizing his mistake, he decided to end the relationship.

At the end of his story, the actor stressed that he will always be grateful to his manager for warning him about the situation and said that if he had accepted that request, he would have been very wrong.
