Early life and career[]

Both of Cibrian's parents are from Cuba. His father's family immigrated from Cuba to the United States after Castro came to power in 1959. His mother's family left Cuba about three years later. Cibrian's parents later met in California.[2][3]

Cibrian starred in The Young and the Restless as Matt Clark, Baywatch Nights as Griff Walker, Sunset Beach as Cole Deschanel, CSI: Miami as Jesse Cardoza, Third Watch as womanizing New York City firefighter Jimmy Doherty, Tilt as rising poker star Eddie Towne, and Invasion as Everglades park ranger Russell Varon.

Ryan Slade.[12] In 2018, he starred as the Private Investigator, Eddie Valetik, in Take Two on ABC.

In May 2001, Cibrian married Brandi Glanville, a former model and reality television star.[13] Cibrian and Glanville have two sons, Mason and Jake.[14][15][16] The couple announced their separation in July 2009 after it was revealed Cibrian had an affair with country music singer LeAnn Rimes.[17] Cibrian and Rimes appeared together in the 2009 movie Northern Lights.[17] Cibrian and Glanville's divorce was finalized on September 30, 2010.[18][19] The circumstances surrounding the affair and divorce were a part of Glanville's book Drinking and Tweeting: And Other Brandi Blunders.[20]
