Rafael Delgado first appeared onscreen on January 25, 1999 as the half-brother of Ashley Abbott. The role was portrayed by Carlos Bernard until July 26, 1999.
History
Rafael made his first appearance in Genoa City when his stepsister, Ashley Abbott, went to Madrid to rescue him. Ashley's biological father, Brent Davis, was married to Rafael's mother, who was never named. Ashley helped him out by buying back forged paintings that he had painted and sold to unsuspecting customers.
Ashley's husband at the time, Cole Howard, assumed that Ashley was having an affair with Rafael without knowing who Rafael actually was. Victoria Newman hooked up with Rafael while trying to break up Ashley and Cole, but nothing serious developed from their short adventure. Rafael then returned to his hometown of Madrid, Spain.
