Party of six! NCIS star Wilmer Valderrama reveals he shares his three acre Los Angeles estate with his wife, daughter, his parents and his wife’s dad
Wilmer Valderrama has a large estate on three acres in Los Angeles but it is pretty filled up.
In the new issue of Parents Latina, the 42-year-old NCIS actor shared that living on the compound with him is his 31-year-old wife and newborn child as well as his parents – who are divorced but friendly – and her father.
But having all that family around is great for in-house babysitters so the lovebirds can have some alone time: ‘As soon as the baby goes down, we hop on our Vespa and just cruise around the neighborhood. You find new ways to do date night,’ said Wilmer.
So many: Wilmer Valderrama has a large estate on three acres in Los Angeles that he shares with his 31-year-old wife and newborn child as well as his parents – who are divorced but friendly – and her father
He bought his first home many years ago; it used to belong to Chuck Norris and had six bedrooms and nine bathrooms at the time. The actor then purchased the property next door in 2019 to expand his living quarters.
The members of the sprawling home are himself, his wife Amanda, his daughter Nakano, his mother Sobeida, his dad Balbino, and his wife’s father, Armando.
Pacheco lost her mother to ovarian cancer seven years ago.
But these days she has Wilmer’s mother to lean on: ‘She was around the same age as I was when her own mother passed,’ Pacheco stated. ‘She’s become a mother figure to me, and despite the language barrier, we have a real connection.’

Valderrama says falling for his wife was easy. The actor felt a ‘gravitational pull’ toward her: ‘There was just something about her that told me I needed to know this person,’ he said.
The two started texting each other. ‘I was giving her advice on Miami,’ he said. The star was was born in Miami but raised in his father’s home country of Venezuela until age 13.
Pacheco shared that she also had a Mexican background but was not fluent in Spanish. So her father stepped in and started helping her learn the language.

Wilmer and Amanda dated for under a year before welcoming daughter Nakano Oceana. She is named after the city in Japan where they first declared their love for each other.
Now Wilmer hopes to be a good role model.
‘We want to teach her respect, loyalty, and what hard work looks like. That’s what saved my own life,’ shared Valderrama.

‘In Hollywood, you can lose yourself if you try to become what someone else thinks is profitable. But my parents taught me that I never had to be anything I wasn’t.’
He stars on NCIS and recently voiced Agustín in Disney’s Encanto.
In February, their daughter turns one. ‘It’s an exciting moment to make it to one year as parents,’ saaid Valderrama.
‘I think that’s a testament to us. They tell you, “It’s all about the baby,” but when you’re both with the baby, you can forget about each other. The baby is our priority,’ he shared. ‘But,’ he said looking at Pacheco, ‘you are mine too.’
For Valentine’s Day, they’re planning to have a romantic meal together. ‘Wilmer is always doing sweet, loving things for me,’ says Pacheco.
‘Nakano was born the day after Valentine’s Day, so we’ll have the 14th for us and the next day for her.’
