Personal Life
Montero was born Oscar Daniel Hernández Rodríguez in Torreón, Coahuila, Mexico.
From about 2000 to 2003, Montero had a relationship with Aracely Arámbula.
In 2006, there were rumors about a possible romance with his costar in Duelo de pasiones, Ludwika Paleta, who is married to Mexican actor Plutarco Haza. Montero and Paleta denied the rumors until a video was made public in which they were seen making out . This is said to have caused Ludwika Paleta's separation from her husband. Paleta and Plutarco Haza later reconciled.
On August 31, 2007 two days after Montero presented the nominees for the 2007 Latin Grammy Awards, Miami Police reported that they stopped Montero and a passenger after his white BWM SUV ran a red light. During the investigation, police reported discovering a clear bag that tested positive for cocaine, which Montero claimed as his. However in court the following month, Montero pleaded not guilty to cocaine possession, was found guilty, and was sentenced to probation, pending completion of a drug court program. Montero was jailed in 2008 for violating the terms of his probation but released on the condition that he complete a drug rehabilitation program. On Friday, February 20, 2009, Montero graduated from his drug treatment program.
He has a son, Pablo, born in 2007, with the actress Sandra Vidal.
In June 2010 his brother Oliver was murdered in an attempted robbery.

Famous quotes containing the words personal and/or life:
“Children’s lives are not shaped solely by their families or immediate surroundings at large. That is why we must avoid the false dichotomy that says only government or only family is responsible. . . . Personal values and national policies must both play a role.”
—Hillary Rodham Clinton (20th century)
“His life itself passes deeper in nature than the studies of the naturalist penetrate; himself a subject for the naturalist. The latter raises the moss and bark gently with his knife in search of insects; the former lays open logs to their core with his axe, and moss and bark fly far and wide. He gets his living by barking trees. Such a man has some right to fish, and I love to see nature carried out in him.”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
