Luisa Rubino's family

Rubino was born to Argentinian parents, which meant that she lived in both Mexico and Argentina during her childhood. Her mother, Lourdes Ramírez, works as a talent agent, according to her Instagram profile.

Lourdes previously worked as a model while Luisa's father was an actor. The actress told LA Weekly in November 2021 that spending most of her time with her parents as a baby gave her early exposure in show business.

Argentinians in Mexico, they had nowhere to leave me when I was a baby. With no one: not a grandmother, not an aunt, no friends, anyone. So my dad used to take me to his projects when he would be on set – my mother used to be a model back in the day as well, and she would take me to the runway – so [the industry] is something that I saw and experienced from a very young age – My first two commercials were when I was a baby!
