Roberto considers himself a “third culture kid”:
Roberto was born to Mexican parents, grew up mostly in Switzerland and now lives in Los Angeles, leading him to describe himself as a “third culture kid”. The actor said: “It’s where your parents are a certain culture, you relate mostly to a different culture, and then you grew up in a place that’s neither of those two cultures… [and] the cool thing about it, is you fit anywhere.”
He’s a talented actor and producer
Roberto has starred in a number of films and television programmes including Boulevard, the last film Robin Williams starred in before his death in 2014. The 27-year-old paid tribute to the late actor in August, writing on Twitter: “No words can encapsulate your genius, and no adjectives can touch your greatness. Miss you boss.”

Emma and Roberto have been friends for years
He met Emma on the set of Harry Potter:
Speaking about his friendship with Emma in 2012, Roberto told Just Jared about how they met: “I was doing an internship in the special effects department at the time. And one day we had a chance encounter that led to us spending half a day together exchanging stories and dance moves.”
Roberto says Emma is one of his best friends:
Following their chance encounter Roberto said: “We never really lost touch after that and now she’s one of my best friends.” In fact the pair are so close they have made a couple of red carpet appearances together over the past three years, including the Tribeca Film Festival in April and the Struck By Lightning premiere in 2012.
