She has acted in Televisa productions.

Life and career

Born in Mexico City, Zapata is the daughter of Guillermo Zapata Pérez de Utrera (a Mexican boxer, model, and businessman) and Yolanda Miranda Mange. She is the maternal sister of Thalía (also a singer and actress), Federica, Gabriela, and Ernestina Sodi.

Zapata is a singer and dancer. In Maria Mercedes, one of Thalía's first soap operas, Zapata played a villain opposite her sister. She is well known for her antagonist roles in telenovelas.

Zapata was married to Juan Eduardo Sodi de la Tijera. She has two sons, Claudio Sodi and Patricio Sodi.

Kidnapping

In September 2002, Zapata and her sister Ernestina Sodi were kidnapped and taken to an unspecified location. The news of their kidnapping made headlines across Latin America and on Spanish-language television channels in the United States.

Their sister, Thalía, is married to multi-millionaire Tommy Mottola, leading to speculation that their captors would demand a large ransom. However, Zapata was released 18 days after her kidnapping, and Ernestina was released on the 34th day.[2]
