Hi readers!
Jane Villanueva
(Gina Rodriguez) has been convinced of two life truths owing it all to her
overbearing grandmother Alba – first, that telenovelas are the highest form of
entertainment; and second, that all women must protect their virginity at all
costs. Now at 23, she is a driven young woman studying to become a teacher and
a writer while supporting herself with a job at a new hotel in Miami.

| Jane the Virgin Sunday - 9:05 p.m. |
All the years of
watching telenovelas with her mother Xiomara (known as “Xo”) and her devout grandmother
gave Jane a slightly unrealistic view of love – Her sexy, young-at-heart mom Xo
was an unwed mother at 16 who continues to live her life as a performer at
local clubs while looking for a new man. Her grandmother Alba on the other hand
is a devout and prayerful lady with religion at the center of her life. Both
women share a special place in Jane’s life and continue to root for her as an
ambitious and compassionate woman despite their conflicting influences on Jane.
All of Jane’s
meticulous life plans are turned upside down during her life-changing routine
check up when she is accidentally artificially inseminated with a specimen
meant for the patient in the next room. Unbeknownst to her, the specimen
belongs to Rafael (Justin Baldoni), a reformed playboy and cancer survivor who
is not only the new owner of the hotel where Jane works, but also a former
summer crush of hers.

A few weeks later, the unsuspecting Jane is faced with the most important
decisions of her life. Will she continue with the pregnancy? How can she
explain the situation to her fiancé and family? And what should she do about
the wishes of the biological father, Rafael, and his scheming wife Petra? At
the same time, Jane’s mother Xo is facing a life-changing decision of her own:
after years of letting Jane and Alba believe she didn’t know the identity of
Jane’s father, the time has come to admit the truth – Jane’s father is Xo’s
former boyfriend Rogelio. Making the situation even more surreal, Rogelio is
now a huge telenovela star, and he definitely wants to meet his unsuspecting
daughter.
