About[]

Rafael and Michael were rivals for Jane's affection and generally didn't get on well. After Jane chose to keep Rafael's baby while still engaged to Michael, he soon grew jealous of him. Michael's hatred for Rafael was only made stronger by his suspicions of his involvement in the Sin Rostro case and even more so after Jane pursued a relationship with him after she and Michael broke up. Although they did eventually try to put their differences aside for Jane's sake. Rafael was grateful after Michael rescued Mateo from Sin Rostro shortly after his birth and asked him to be Mateo's godfather. After that their relationship was a bit more smooth, although it soon turned stained and awkward as they both still had feelings for Jane, and especially so when she revealed that she was in love with both of them.

Jane eventually chose Michael but Rafael and Michael got into a fight after Michael believed Rafael had gotten him fired from his job (which later turned out to be true). Mateo was hurt in the altercation causing Jane to end things with Michael once again. In the coming months, she would give Rafael another shot although she was furious when she found out what he had done to Michael. After the Sin Rostro case was finally closed, Michael professed his love for Jane who returned his feelings, leaving Rafael upset and heartbroken. He was upset when he realized Jane let Michael babysit Mateo and hurt when Mateo uttered his first words: "dada", directed at Michael. After Jane and Michael got married, Rafael tried to move on and be friendly with Michael. They were on good terms by the time Michael "died".

When Michael made his surprise return after being believed dead for years, he and Rafael had a stained relationship as Rafael became insecure in his relationship with Jane. Jane's refusal to send in the divorce papers is what eventually caused Rafael to end their relationship although Jane would later choose Rafael over Michael who choose to stay in Montana.
