Felicia Mercado Agud (born December 17, 1959) is a Mexican actress, singer, TV host and beauty pageant titleholder, best known for her appearances in telenovelas.

Biography

Mercado's entry into the entertainment world began with beauty contests. At just 17 years old, she won the Señorita México in 1977 and went on to represent Mexico in the Miss Universe pageant that same year. This early success paved her way into the world of film and television.

Starting her professional career around 1980, Mercado's work spans various mediums. Her acting career is her most prominent facet. She became one of the audience's favorite "villains" during the 1980s and 1990s. Key roles include her breakout performance as Leonela in Rosa Salvaje (replacing Edith González), and parts in Teresa, Lazos de Amor, Between Love and Hatred, La Casa de al Lado, and, more recently, Cabo (2022-2023).

In 1997, Mercado married Eugenio Santoscoy. The couple has one daughter named Ivana Francesca Santoscoy, born in 1998.
