Julian Figueroa and Jose Eduardo Derbez were close friends, according to Eugenio Derbez’s son. They were quite close when they were young, however the actor and comedian says that they grew apart as their lives went in different directions.

«Julián and I were very close friends, more young. What happened is that we went to parties a lot or sometimes he stayed at my house. In fact he told me several times, ‘You tell my mother (Maribel Guardia), that I’m going to be here a lot,” said José Eduardo.

Why they grew apart

The son of Eugenio Derbez and Victoria Ruffo said that over time they grew apart as Julián started having a family. «Afterward, well, when he got married, he had children and all that, well, we sort of grew apart. But yes, I hang out with him a lot, we went to dinner,» he said on Ventaneando.
