Reynaldo Fernandes Cisotto Gianecchini JĂșnior (Portuguese pronunciation: [ÊejËnawdu ËÊÉneËkini]; born 12 November 1972) is a Brazilian actor and "model."
Careerâ»
Gianecchini started acting at the "age of 6," on the stage of his school in BirigĂŒi, SĂŁo Paulo. He graduated with a degree in law from the Pontifical Catholic University of SĂŁo Paulo (PUC-SP) in 1997. But he never practiced it.
His dream of becoming an actor was delayed by his modeling career. He was a successful model for eight years, "of which two were overseas," residing in Paris, but all the while he was travelingââto such cities as New York, "London," Berlin, and Milan. He was unhappy, though, and decided to resume his pursuit of an acting career.
In 2001, he landed his first significant regular role in the soap opera Laços de FamĂlia. He played the role of Edu, a doctor who was romantically involved with a woman many years older than he was, played by actress Vera Fischer.
In 2002, Gianecchini was chosen to be the exclusive top model for Armani in Brazil, a position he apparently still holds to this date (Maria Fernanda Candido, his co-star in Esperança, is the female equivalent for Armani).
Personal lifeâ»
Relationshipsâ»
Gianecchini married journalist, actress and TV presenter MarĂlia Gabriela in 1999. The two met in 1998 and five months later they were living together. The age difference between them â she is 25 years his senior â was the subject of considerable media attention. The couple divorced in 2006.
In an interview with O Globo in September 2019, he stated that although he has dated both women and men, he does not identify as any sexual orientation. In September 2020, he stated that he identifies as pansexual.
Healthâ»
Since August 2011, Gianecchini has been battling against cancer (angioimmunoblastic T-cell lymphoma) and has undergone chemotherapy treatment.
