Pedro Pascal's Sister Lux: The Empowering Force Behind His Success
PEDRO PASCAL'S SECRET TO STAYING YOUNG: HIS SISTER LUX IS THE REAL MVP
In a candid interview with Elle, Pedro Pascal spilled the tea on how his younger sister Lux is the one person who keeps him going despite facing existential crises about aging. The 50-year-old actor has been in the spotlight for over two decades, but it's clear that Lux, 33, is the rock that keeps him grounded.
Pascal shared with Elle that Lux's words of encouragement are what give him confidence to keep pushing through tough times. "Something different every day," he said, "especially in a period where I am facing existential issues around age, you're the first person to empower me and to give me confidence." He credits her no-nonsense attitude for keeping him motivated, saying, "You're just like, 'Enough is enough. You're the s*,' and you're the person I believe the most, so that keeps me going."
But it's not all smooth sailing in the Pascal household. Lux recalled a heart-wrenching moment when she broke down on the phone with her brother after facing some personal struggles. Pedro was there for her, offering words of comfort and wisdom that left Lux feeling empowered. "He just said, 'Just be yourself. People will see it eventually. Just be yourself,'" she remembered. "And I was just like, 'Yes, he's right.'"
The bond between the siblings is undeniable, with Pedro gushing over Lux in an interview with Esquire last year: "She is and has always been one of the most powerful people and personalities I've ever known." He even confessed to feeling a strong sense of responsibility towards her and their younger brother Nicolás after their mother's tragic passing in 1999. "They were very young kids, so much younger than me and my older sister," he explained. "So even if they hadn't lost a parent, we would still feel parental toward them."
Lux has been making waves in the acting world, having graduated from Julliard School in 2023 and landing roles in The Prince, Invisible Heroes, and Chilean drama series Los 80. But what's truly inspiring is her journey as a trans woman. She publicly came out in 2021, appearing on the cover of Chilean magazine Ya, where she bravely shared her story.
Pedro has been an unwavering supporter of his sister, even crediting him as an "important part" of her journey. When Lux officially told him about her transition over FaceTime, Pedro's response was: "Perfect, this is incredible." He's also used his platform to raise awareness for the trans community, sharing a powerful quote on Instagram earlier this year: "A world without trans people has never existed and never will."
Pascal's words of encouragement for the LGBTQ+ community are music to our ears. "I can't think of anything more vile and small and pathetic than terrorising the smallest, most vulnerable community of people who want nothing from you, except the right to exist," he wrote.
It's clear that Pedro Pascal has found his rock in his sister Lux, and we couldn't be more grateful for their unwavering support and love for each other. As they navigate the ups and downs of life together, it's reassuring to know that they have each other's backs – no matter what.
