Speaking about joining Queen of the South, Valles told American Latino in 2017: “I was familiar with the telemundo version of Queen of the South and just to hear that they were going to do an English version for the United States was so exciting for me because almost all of our people on the TV show are Latinos.
“The best thing is just being on set every day with these amazing actors that are teaching you so much just by being able to see them act.
“I think that’s the coolest thing ever just sharing a room with Veronica Falcón or Hemky Madera and everyone. Alice Braga, she’s amazing and I get to be with her everyday on set.”
Valles said she “really connected” with Isabela, who is in the middle of teen angst with parents who are drug lords, leaving her character “neglected throughout the year”.
