The Cuban actress and comedian Zajaris Fernández celebrated her 42nd birthday surrounded by love, laughter, and her three pets, marking this new journey around the sun with a photo session and several heartfelt messages on her social media.
Zajaris had already hinted at the date with a post titled «…almost 42», accompanied by images where she showcased an elegant short red halter dress, gold hoop earrings, and a pearl necklace, all captured from the tranquility of her home.
When the official moment arrived, the artist quickly shared it with her followers: “Officially 42! Thank you, life, for this incredible journey,” she wrote in one of her birthday reels, which was full of good humor and her witty remarks.
In another video, Zajaris expressed gratitude for the overwhelming love he received from his community: "Thank you soooo much!!!!! For so much and soooooo much. I love you all, thank you for the good wishes and the love from everyone." Staying true to his style, he joked about his age by changing the numbers as if he were turning 24 instead of 42.
But perhaps the most touching moment of the celebration came with the post alongside her pets, in which she appeared on the white sofa of her home, embraced by her three dogs: Kuka, Mía, and Luna. “My girls!!!!!! Thank you for always being there for me!!! Thank you all for the love you have for my four-legged girls,” the artist wrote, making her animals the true stars of the celebration.
Zajaris arrived in the United States in 2009 at just 24 years old, facing challenges that included working as a waitress and sleeping in her car. In Cuba, she had built a television career with programs like "Alegrías de Sobremesa" and "¿Jura decir la verdad?", in addition to starring in the feature film "Los aretes que le faltan a la luna."
In Miami, she resumed her artistic career and became one of the most beloved figures in the Cuban exile community. This year has also been personally significant for her: last April, she celebrated 17 years of residency in the United States with a message about freedom as her greatest achievement, and in 2024 she bought her first house in Florida, a milestone she publicly celebrated on social media.
The 42 of Zajaris are marked by humor, gratitude, and the unwavering companionship of Kuka, Mía, and Luna, their three pets who never miss an appointment.
