Truth be told, every family goes through their share of ups and downs. For Mayan and George, the pair’s relationship suffered after George Ann Serrano (Mayan's mother) divorced when Mayan was 15.
In fact, the troubled relationship caused the pair to go without spending holidays together for over a decade. However, Mayan’s character on the show spending time with her family sort of bridged the gap for the father-daughter duo in real life.
"My character got to have Christmas with her family, and I got jealous because I hadn't had Christmas with my family since my parents got divorced," Mayan told People in May 2023. "But then this last year, I was able to have Christmas with my family for the last 12 years."
Mayan added: “It's a full metamorphosis of our relationship. Some things about reconnection, it's true. Sometimes there are just moments where we're just really talking to each other as a father and a daughter would."
