Lux Pascal Joins Her Brother Pedro Pascal at the 'Fantastic Four: First Steps' Premiere
THE RUNDOWN Pedro Pascal's younger sister, Lux Pascal, has become a star in her own right. The 33-year-old (to Pedro's 50) has graced red carpets and acted in notable projects like Narcos. Here's everything to know about Lux and her sweet sibling dynamic with her older brother Pedro. Lux was born on June 4, 1992, in Orange County, California. She was raised in Chile and studied theater there. She earned her bachelor's degree at Pontificia Universidad Catolica de Chile and later attended Juilliard, graduating with her MFA in 2023. Her acting roles include Netflix's Narcos and the Spanish-language productions Miss Carbón and La Jauría. In an interview with The Hollywood Reporter, Lux revealed that she currently has a few American roles in the works. 'I have two projects coming out, and I filmed one,' she shared with THR. 'I can't really give details of what's coming up, but yes, I do have projects coming up in the United States, and I'm excited.' In her 2021 Ya Magazine cover story, Lux publicly came out as a transgender woman. In the story, she spoke about how much Pedro supported her throughout her transition. Translated to English, she said, 'He's been an important part of this. He's also an artist and has been a guide. He was one of the first to give me the things that shaped my identity.' Pedro also posted her Ya cover on his Instagram and captioned it, 'Mi hermana, mi corazón, nuestra Lux,' which translates in English to 'My sister, my heart, our Lux.' Lux has since elaborated on what Pedro's support means to her. 'What makes him so fabulous is that he wears all of his humanity on his sleeve, and he doesn't hide who he is,' she told THR. 'And I think that's refreshing, because usually we move around the world hiding who we are. That's the main lesson I've gotten from him: There's no reason for me to hide who I am, right? And I think people are seeing that.' 'We protect each other very much,' Lux told People. 'He protects me a lot, but I guess I'm more under the radar, but I protect him a lot too.' She also spoke about the joys of growing up with him. 'He has a very powerful personality, and he was always the most fun to be around with,' she said. 'I would ditch all my friends just to hang out with my brother. It was such a special moment whenever he would visit us in Chile.' In his 2023 Esquire cover story, Pedro spoke about their childhood, too. '[Lux] ruled the household right away,' he shared. 'When my older sister and I would visit [Chile], we were like intruders. Our mother was her mother, but for us to think that we were entitled to this woman's attention in any way was absurd.' He elaborated on their connection, saying, 'She is and has always been one of the most powerful people and personalities I've ever known. My protective side is lethal, but I need her more than she needs me.' Lux has made several red carpet appearances with Pedro. In January 2024, the siblings attended the Emmys in Los Angeles. Pedro was nominated for Outstanding Lead Actor in a Drama Series for his role in The Last of Us. They also stopped by HBO's post-Emmy Reception in West Hollywood. Last November, Lux joined her brother for his Gladiator II premiere in London. In May 2025, the siblings attended the Eddington red carpet at the Cannes Film Festival in France. On July 21, Lux went to Pedro's Fantastic Four: First Steps Los Angeles premiere.

Tied up, starved, forced to kneel: Inside the ICE hellhole Florida jail treating migrants worse than dogs
New, shocking claims show how terrible it is for migrants who are being held in South Florida immigration jails . A report from human rights groups says that three ICE detention centers in Florida have terrible conditions, where migrants were allegedly tied up, starved, and treated badly. There are claims that migrants at Miami's ICE jail were forced to kneel and eat from styrofoam plates "like dogs" while shackled and had their hands tied behind their backs, as quoted in a report by the Guardian.

Advocacy groups say that these jails are too full, inhumane, and a growing stain on the conscience of the country. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like The Best Method for a Flat Stomach After 50 (It's Genius!) Lulutox Undo A series of alleged abuses at Immigration and Customs Enforcement Agency (ICE)-operated jails in the state since January have been documented by advocacy groups Human Rights Watch, Americans for Immigrant Justice, and Sanctuary of the South based on interviews with detainees, including the incident at the federal detention center downtown. What exactly happened inside the Miami detention center? Live Events The report claimed that for hours, dozens of men had been crammed into a holding cell and denied lunch until roughly 7:00 p.m. They were still chained, and the food was on the chairs before them. According to Pedro, one of the prisoners, "we had to eat like animals." There is a lot of overcrowding, medical neglect, and physical abuse, and things have gotten worse since Trump's immigration crackdown started in January. The groups claim that guards frequently treat inmates in all three jails in a dehumanizing manner. Gender-appropriate care, showers, and sufficient food were denied to female detainees at the Krome North service processing center in west Miami, where they were forced to use restrooms in plain sight of the men being held there.

In order to use the one toilet, which soon became clogged, men and women were confined together and only unchained when necessary. "Others defecated in the toilet because they were on the bus for so long and were not allowed to get off," according to one man. "As a result, there was a strong fecal odor throughout the bus," as per a report by The Guardian. How bad are conditions at Krome and Broward facilities? They claimed that after the group was eventually admitted to the hospital, many of them slept on the chilly concrete floor for up to 12 days while cooped up in a freezing intake room they called la hielera, or the icebox. According to the report, Krome had so many detainees and so little space that every room was used to accommodate new arrivals. Detainees claimed they were frequently denied proper medical or psychological care at the Broward transitional center in Pompano Beach, where Marie Ange Blaise, a 44-year-old Haitian woman, passed away in April. Some experienced hostile or contemptuous reactions from staff members, as well as delayed treatment for chronic illnesses and injuries. A "disturbance control team" allegedly brutalized inmates who were protesting the lack of medical attention for one of their number who was coughing up blood, and staff allegedly turned off a surveillance camera at the downtown Miami jail in April. What's causing this crisis and who's being held? The decision by Florida to swiftly construct the contentious "Alligator Alcatraz" prison in the Everglades, which would house up to 5,000 undocumented migrants awaiting deportation, was influenced by the extreme overcrowding in all three facilities. In mid-June, there were 56,400 immigration detentions nationwide on average per day, with nearly 72% of those detained having no criminal history. Inhumane conditions within federal immigration facilities have gotten considerably worse since Trump's January inauguration and subsequent push to increase detentions and deportations, as evidenced by the documented abuses. FAQs What kind of abuse did migrants report inside the ICE jails? They claimed they were shackled, denied food, and forced to eat on their knees. Which Florida ICE jails were involved? Detention facilities in downtown Miami, Krome North, and Broward Transitional were all named.

Former Chelsea star under fire for allowing his eight-year-old son to wear a dress
Former Chelsea and Barcelona star Pedro has sparked a fierce online backlash after sharing birthday photos of his eight-year-old son Marc wearing a dress and tiara. The pictures showed Pedro alongside his ex-wife Carolina Martin, celebrating Marc's birthday at a waterpark in Tenerife. Marc was smiling in his outfit, sitting in front of a 'Lilo & Stitch' cake. Pedro and Martin co-parent three children together, having divorced after two years of marriage in 2017. Still, the pair appeared united as they came together to celebrate Marc's birthday - clearly focused on creating a joyful, memorable day for their son. The heartwarming family moment, however, was soon overshadowed by a wave of online hate, with some social media users criticising Pedro for allowing his eight-year-old son to wear a dress.

View this post on Instagram A post shared by Pedro Rodriguez Ledesma (@_pedro17_) Another user asked: 'Bro what is wrong with u?' A third commented: 'Everything that was once abnormal is normal today.' Pedro's actions split opinions, with many fans sharing their admiration for the Spaniard's open-minded approach to parenting. One said: 'You are an EXEMPLARY father, especially to the footballing world around you; all of them should learn from you and your family.' A second wrote: 'We all knew that you were a champion on the field, now we also know that you are a great person and a wonderful dad.'
