Who are the Lead Characters in "Taming My Ex’s Billionaire Uncle"?

At the center of this story is a situation that escalates quickly. Cora Evans thinks she’s starting a new chapter in her life, until everything falls apart. Her fiancé cheats on her with her best friend, and suddenly, she’s left dealing with betrayal from both sides.

Things take another turn when she ends up under the protection of Neo Garcia, a lawyer and the head of the powerful Garcia family. From there, the story shifts into something more complicated, as the two are forced into close proximity while unresolved emotions and tension build.

Here’s a closer look at the two actors carrying that story.

Denise Borraz Trepat as Cora Evans

Denise Borraz Trepat plays Cora Evans, a piano student whose life changes overnight after being betrayed by the people closest to her.

Her background in acting is rooted in theater. She was born and raised in Spain and started training at a young age before moving to the U.S. to pursue a BFA in Acting at Adelphi University. Over time, she expanded her training to include stage combat, earning certifications in areas like broadsword and unarmed combat.

"Please Like Me"

“The Alpha and His Contract Luna”

“DItched My Cheater Husband for His Billionaire Brother”

She has also worked across different areas of production, writing and producing her own projects, including "Please Like Me."

Her training extends beyond acting. She’s fluent in multiple languages—Spanish, French, Catalan, and English—and has experience in dance, music, and movement-based disciplines. That kind of range shows in roles like Cora, where the character has to move through emotional shifts quickly.

Jackson Tiller as Neo Garcia

Jackson Tiller plays Neo Garcia, a lawyer who holds power within the Garcia family and becomes the person Cora turns to when she’s in danger.

Unlike Cora, Neo comes from a position of control. He’s described as someone who leads one of the most powerful families in the story, which creates a very different energy between the two characters.

“My Roommate is a Secret Superstar”

Tiller entered the vertical drama space in a way that even he didn’t expect. As he shared:

“I stumbled upon the Vertical world sometime in early 2023. I submitted on Actors Access and was cast. I honestly hated my first project and swore I would never do it again. And here we are lol.”

The Characters Driving the Drama

While the story focuses heavily on Cora and Neo, the tension starts with two other characters.

Finn Garcia – Cora’s ex-fiancé and Neo’s nephew, whose betrayal sets everything in motion

Ava – Cora’s best friend, who has an affair with Finn

These relationships are what push Cora into Neo’s world in the first place. What starts as a situation built on necessity slowly turns into something more layered, as the story moves from betrayal to something that looks a lot more like emotional connection.

The "Taming My Ex’s Billionaire Uncle" cast isn’t a large ensemble. It centers on a few key characters and lets their relationships carry the story.

With Denise Borraz Trepat and Jackson Tiller leading the cast, the series leans into familiar vertical drama themes—betrayal, power, and second chances—while keeping the story easy to follow and emotionally direct.
