Betty Monroe, whose real name is Beatriz Monroy Alarcón, was born on March 4, 1978, in Guadalajara, Jalisco. As a girl she took part in a stage production of Vaselina. In 1996 she won the Modelo del Año contest, and then received offers from Televisa and TV Azteca to study at their acting schools.

In 2001 she played Rubí in Como en el cine. In 2007 she played Berenice, a villain, in Bellezas indomables.

After several villain roles, in 2011 she joined Cielo rojo with a different kind of character: “it’s a character very different from all the ones I’ve played, she’s good and she falls in love,” she said at the time (translated from Spanish). Later she acted in La mujer de Judas (2012) and Corazón en condominio (2013).

In 2015 she returned to the story of Como en el cine in its adaptation, Un escenario para amar (UEPA), this time as Zoila.

In 2017 she joined Imagen Televisión with the series ¡Muy padres!, where she played Margarita. At the series’ presentation she said: “I loved the story, I loved that it was a story told by men and that it was a comedy” (translated from Spanish).
