He was 39.The cause of death, according to the Los Angeles County Coroners Office, was suicide by hanging.On NBC’s Days, San Martin had a six-month run in 2011 as Dario Hernandez, who first arrived in Salem appearing to be just a petty thief; the role was subsequently played in 2015-16 by Guiding Light alum Jordi Vilasuso.
In 2017, San Martin had a brief arc on CBS’ B&B as Mateo, a Forrester Manor staffer who was recruited/paid by Sheila to seduce Quinn (though he wound up being rebuffed). San Martin’s TV credits also included The CW’s Jane The Virgin, where in Seasons 3-4 he played Fabian Regalo del Cielo, an actor on Rogelio’s telenovela Los Viajes de Guillermo. Jane was instantly attracted to Fabian, and the two had a brief and ultimately messy courtship.If you or someone you know is struggling or in crisis, help is available.

ΔI hope he’s at peace now. I liked him on Days and wished he had returned when the character appeared again.So tragic. I loved him on Days. Always waited for him to come back whenever they would mention Dario – sad that he never did. Such a horrible tragedy that he took his own life. Rest in peace, Francisco. <3I remember him when he was on The Bold and The Beautiful and wished his character would have been a series regular. So tragic that he ended his own life. May he finally be at peace. Sending prayers üôè to his family. Condolences to his family as they grieve his loss.Back in the day, we had the “it get’s better” campaign, and we need to implement that again. Because nothing we are going through today, is going to last forever, it will get better.Hard to feel like “it gets better” with what we have coming for the next 4 years.Not everything is about politics.Everything in life is affected by politics.Not everything is about politics. But, the government in the country you live in certainly affects many aspects of your life.This constant drama about nothing is the reason people commit suicide, just sayingDo you know this from your experience as a psychologist?So very sad a great actor, with a loving soul. It’s so bad that his friends didn’t see his pain and urge him or go with him to get therapy. It maybe could have saved his life. Not excusing his family either. I understand that he probably was hiding his problems or pain. He was worth saving. He was a guy with love, laughter, and even pain. I am sure God has forgiven him and is welcoming his soul to heaven . üôècross ‚úùÔ∏èGood job, no cuss, no issues.
