Christopher Alexander Levy Gutiérrez, the elder son of Cuban actor William Levy and Mexican actress Elizabeth Gutiérrez, turned 20 this Thursday, March 12, and both his mother and sister Kailey dedicated heartfelt messages to him on Instagram to celebrate the occasion. Elizabeth Gutiérrez posted a lengthy message in English and Spanish, while Kailey Levy also joined in the celebrations with her own post.
Gutiérrez was the first to publish, describing Christopher as the love of her life. "I never knew my heart was capable of loving someone the way I love you. You changed me forever from the very first day you came into my life. You made me a mother, but more than that, you gave my life a purpose and limitless love," the actress wrote.
In another part of her post, Gutiérrez added: "No matter how old you are, you will always be my baby, my greatest gift, and the one who taught me unconditional love. Happy birthday, daddy! Thank you for choosing me as your mom!" She also left an encouraging message: "Chase your dreams, be humble but know your worth. I will always be by your side!"
Hours later, her sister Kailey Levy joined the celebrations with a post of her own, referring to Christopher by his family nickname, 'toty', and highlighting the bond that connects them beyond blood. "Thank you for showing me not only what brothers are, but what best friends are," she wrote. "Every day I admire you more, and I couldn’t be prouder to call you my brother. I know God has great plans for you, and I promise to be by your side at all times, especially in difficult moments."

Christopher was born on March 12, 2006 in Florida and from a young age he excelled in baseball, a sport that represents his strongest bond with his father. His journey was not without obstacles: in October 2020, he suffered a serious accident when a golf cart overturned in Weston, Florida, which required five surgical interventions. His recovery and return to baseball approximately a year later was celebrated by both parents on social media.
In March 2025, when he turned 19 years old, he was recognized as Sports Illustrated Player of the Week in South Florida, where he played shortstop for the Patriots of American Heritage High School, recording 3 home runs and 6 runs batted in during the season. In May of that same year, he graduated from that institution in Plantation, Florida, wearing a yellow gown and a medal for his academic and athletic achievements, and later signed a letter of intent to play baseball at Miami Dade State College.
His parents, who officially separated in 2024 after more than two decades of an intermittent relationship, have maintained an active and cordial coparenting arrangement. Both attended Christopher's graduation in May 2025 and have gathered in the stands to support him at his games.
Kailey closed her message with a promise to her older brother as he embarks on this new chapter: "I hope you know that you can always count on me. You deserve everything and more, and I can't wait to see what your twenties have in store for you. I love you so much."
